The Fivers sponsor lots of kids and women's sports programs and their Fivers Magazine is delivered to every residence and pub in Margareten. No team looks forward to playing the Fivers on their home court - Sporthalle Margareten on the Hollgasse. Last night in the opening match of the Austrian Championship pandemonium was in the air. The Fivers have already won both Austrian Cups this year and are going for the Dream Three titles by now winning the league championship as well. Standing in their way is one of the teams from West Austria - perennial powerhouse Bregenz. In a thrilling match, the Fivers won in overtime 31-29. They need one more win to say for the third time this season "We are the Champions."
