basketball Bundesliga: Frankfurt Skyliners secure class stay

The Frankfurt Skyliners secured their whereabouts in the Basketball Bundesliga on Saturday evening with an important home win over the Baskets Bonn. The 76:70 success in the ball sports hall was also an important moment for the team, since this performance secured six games before the end of the season. Unlike last year in which the Skyliners had to fight, they show a more stable performance this season.

Success was essentially made possible by a strong first half and especially by Jordan Theodore, who contributed significantly to victory with 22 points. While the Skyliners clearly dominated the first quarter with 29:13, the Frankfurters struggled in the following sections, but were able to defend the lead until the end. In the well -filled hall with 4700 spectators, the mood was tense, whereby the joy of the audience was noticeable about the relegation.

Klaus Perwas and the future of the skyliners

Following the game, Klaus Perwas, who was appointed head coach after the replacement, commented on the atmosphere in the stadium and the cohesion of the team. This is a step in the right direction to regain respect. Perwas plans to continue the team in the coming season, so that the Skyliners are entitled to be competitive in the league.

The management, represented by Thomas Sulzer, made it clear that Frankfurt should not run permanently against relegation. In order to get to play-ins or play-offs next year, a significant increase in the budget is required. This could motivate the players and the entire organization to take the next step in their development and to exploit the slumbering potential.

Overall, the relegation of the Skyliners is not only a sporty, but also a significant organizational achievement. The focus is now on the enlargement of the budget and the reinforcement of the team in order to deliver an even greater performance in the coming season. The upcoming discussions and decisions about the squad will be crucial to create the foundations for a successful season.
