Caterpillar alert! SSV Ulm 1846 starts its preparation for the season with new stars

SSV Ulm 1846 Football has freshly positioned itself for the coming season.

Another test match follows just a few days later, on July 2nd, when the second representative of FC Bayern Munich takes to the field in Ersingen, with the proceeds from the event going to the SG Ersingen sports youth team.
