City championship of the old men: a spectacle with heart and passion!

The football enthusiasts in Hesse can be happy: the city championship of the old men is just around the corner! On Friday, July 18, we start at 6:30 p.m. in the Ferdinand-Braun-Halle. After a few organizational challenges, this year in the mode "everyone against everyone" is kicked on small field. It was originally planned to start with two groups of seven clubs, but FC Italia Bensheim and SG Einhausen/Schwanheim have canceled their participation. Now it continues with a group of six teams, with only players who were born in 1990 or earlier. So the event is specially intended for the Ü35, which causes exciting encounters and maybe a few surprises.

Who are the favorites? According to Mittelhessen, the players from SV Schönberg could benefit from the Ü35 rule from their experienced squad. Klaus Metz in particular, almost 60 years old, awakens the curiosity of the audience with his presence in the team. It remains to be seen whether his use of foot will be the decisive factor.

a look into the past

Torgranate from the last city championship, which took place in February 2022 and was a complete success. The defending champion, the Horas/Niesig team, will certainly do everything possible to win the trophy again. The event took place in an exciting mode at the time, in which two groups each competed against each other. After a group phase, semi -finals followed and finally a grand finale.

A comparison shows that the structure of these championships often remains similar: in the past issue, the season was set to 10 minutes per match. And particularly exciting - as in many other tournaments - there were penalty shootout in the event of a draw. So the audience could look forward to a gripping football afternoon.
