Lindau E-Juniors shine at the U11 Cup in Stuttgart despite defeats!

An exciting day for the SpVgg Lindau U11! On July 19, 2025, the young talents took part in the “Henacher PC U11 NLZ Cup” in Stuttgart. Originally not planned, the team moved up at short notice and competed against strong opponents such as SSV Reutlingen from the Oberliga and SpVgg Greuther Fürth, which plays in the 2nd Bundesliga. Despite the physical and playful superiority of their opponents, the Linau children showed fighting spirit, courage and enthusiasm, as schwaebische.de reports.

Coach Sönke Marx was very satisfied with the performance of his protégés. He emphasized that the players don't have to hide and are on the right track. The disappointment over the goals conceded quickly gave way to pride in their own performance. A special highlight was the header goal scored against Greuther Fürth, which filled the children with a lot of joy.

An unforgettable day in Stuttgart

The day in Stuttgart was both a sporting and emotional highlight for the U11. The children gained valuable experience that should only further increase their motivation for the future. With fresh enthusiasm and new training ideas, the team is moving optimistically into the next phase. The SpVgg Lindau would like to thank the organizer for the invitation to this enriching tournament and is enthusiastic about the participation of the U11, as spvgg-lindau.de also emphasizes.

However, such a high level of commitment to sport also brings with it challenges. The club, which currently has 500 active members, requires significant financial resources every year to maintain playing and training operations. These costs can only be partially covered by membership fees. That is why SpVgg Lindau is increasingly dependent on support from the regional economy.

The financing of sport

Keeping football affordable for everyone is a central concern of the club. In addition to membership fees, financial support from the public sector is also very important. As vibss.de explains, sport is financed through direct grants from the public sector and indirect grants through tax relief for non-profit sports clubs. These funds not only benefit top athletes, but also support the structures that are necessary for popular sports.

Companies from the region are invited to actively participate and thereby promote both the sport and their own visibility in the community. Because it is obvious: if the young talents are well supported, the next great footballer could come from Lindau. Therefore, strong cooperation in the region is required!
