Ringerfest in Elsenfeld: German championships inspire spectators!

Dammfeldstraße 11, 63820 Elsenfeld, Deutschland - The city of Elsenfeld recently became the scene of the German men and women in the struggle, which took place in the Untermainhalle from June 20 to 22, 2025. This event was already the second edition of the championships in this impressive hall, which offers space for 1450 seating and 400 standing room and proved to be a real crowd puller. As reported my-news.de, the ranks were filled well on Saturday evening when the final fights were carried out.

The German Ringerbund (DRB) was extremely satisfied with the number of spectators and the course of the competitions. "The hall is the perfect venue for rings," said DRB general secretary Jens Gündling, who also praised the improvements compared to the previous year, such as the mirror-inner-inner laying of the mats and the best possible walking paths. The district team of the district also received recognition for the excellent conditions within the hall. This week, the structure began on June 18 with the laying of mats and technical tests for light and sound on the holiday of Ascension.

The sporty highlight

The competitions were held in 30 weight classes both in freestyle and in the Greek-Roman style. The fights started every day at 9:30 a.m., followed by the semi -finals from 4:00 p.m. The final fights took place both on Saturday evening and on Sunday morning, with the audience being spoiled with exciting encounters. A live performance of Markus Rill's German national anthem in particular on Saturday, and the honors of the best wrestlers provided special emotional moments.

The new "DM 2025" area offered an additional incentive on the DRB website, which can be found at ringen.de. This not only represents a central point of contact for all results, but also promotes digitization in the struggle and significantly improves the service for the wrestling community. Athletes, trainers, official and fans can gain direct access to competitive results here.

political support and outlook

The championships also had the patronage of Sandro Kirchner, the Bavarian State Secretary, who attended the event on June 20. In the midst of political support and the enthusiastic wrestling community, it became clear that the choice of the Untermainhalle for these championships was also based on the positive experiences of the DRB from a previous team finale.

With this successful event, the Untermainhalle in Elsenfeld will certainly continue to be very popular in the future and establish itself as a significant location for ring sports.
