Divided by his love for both indoor and outdoor, Michael Körper is a thirsty hockey player. After getting to the top, both with Harvestehuder THC (HTHC) and Austria, Körper wants more. He hates to lose and picks up there to fight to win. Welcome to revolution number 9!
“HTHC is the best way to play hockey on a high level and work on my academic career. HTHC is my home”
Regarding his conduct, his way of being, charisma and personality, he could be on the center of any kind of revolution anywhere in the World, but soon he «chose» hockey and the revolution started there. Michael Körper is 31 years old, but has a lot to give to the sport. We don’t know if he did choose hockey or hockey chose him. Before looking for his background, we had a look over his avid personality. The HTHC forward wants more and more everyday and doesn’t hold his thoughts. In January 2017, Körper underlined in an interview ( https://www.abendblatt.de/spor... ) something that was lacking Harvestehuder. In the number 9’s opinion, he only sees Tobi Hauke as an exceptional player in the team: “I said that in January, but I haven’t changed that much. We are a good team with good players, but Tobi is a player on a different level. With him, and the team’s spirit as well as the strength of each player, we set up a strong team that can compete against almost every team. Only if you play at full strength you can give your best hockey and reach what you want”. This doesn’t mean that Körper is unhappy: “I had some offers from clubs abroad, but I was always thinking about my academic and working career. So, for me, the HTHC is the best way to play hockey on a high level and work on my academic career. HTHC helped me there and because of that and many other things, HTHC is my home”.
Michael Körper’s mindset looks like one of his strongest points and it came easy for the Austria’s international player: “I just hate losing and if you don‘t want to lose you have to give 100%. That’s not as easy as it sounds, but it gives you the fire you need”.
