The 20-year-old German back court player Jari Lemke has signed his first full professional contract.

203 centimeters tall Jari Lemke will be a full professional Bundesliga player from the coming season. The German left back has signed a Bundesliga contract until the summer of 2019 at TBV Lemgo.

The 20-year-old, who has played for Lemgoer Youngsters in the professional squad, is happy about the contract as a full professional: "I'm looking forward to two more years with the TBV. I hope that we can celebrate further success together in these years together," he states in a press release of TBV Lemgo.

The younger brother of the European Champion Finn Lemke came to Lemgo in 2013 at the age of 15 and since then has been through all the youth teams in the club.
