SG Werratal misses promotion – end of season in the Balearic Islands!
A sporty end to the season was recently visible for the SG Werratal and SG Dittlofrod/Körnbach teams. Both teams had to admit defeat in their relegation games, with SG Werratal missing out on promotion to the district league with a 3-0 defeat against Großentaft. Dittlofroder were also not successful in the promotion fight and will play in the current league again next season. Despite the negative sporting result, there was a reason to be happy: the games attracted high numbers of spectators and a brilliant atmosphere in the stands, because football captivates people and the fans were enthusiastic despite the results.
Another highlight of the season was the kickers' final trip, which will go to a Balearic island. Here the players want to reflect on the past season and prepare for the next season. In the same league, however, the Rhein-Neckar-Löwen team also suffered some bitter setbacks after they postponed the final trip before the end of the season and then lost a home game against Stuttgart.
The viewer numbers in comparison
In the context of these games, it is also interesting to look at the number of spectators in Germany. The Bundesliga continues to enjoy great popularity, as a recent survey shows. In recent years, the average number of spectators per game has been around 40,000, making football one of the most popular sports in Germany and catapulting the country to second place in the European spectator rankings. Although these figures were temporarily affected by the corona pandemic, they have recovered encouragingly. For the 2022/23 season, those responsible report a total of 28.9 million fans who attended the games of German professional and amateur clubs. Statista provides the relevant data that shows that the popularity of the stadiums is increasing significantly.
- Deutschland: 28,9 Millionen Zuschauer
- England: 44,5 Millionen
- Spanien: 22,2 Millionen
- Italien: 21,4 Millionen
A look at the Club World Cup
Aside from the local relegation games, there are also discussions about the upcoming Football Club World Cup in the USA, in which two German clubs, Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund, will take part. However, demand for tickets has so far been low, which has led to critical comments regarding the importance of the event. It remains to be seen how this event will develop, especially in the context of the financial aspects involved.
A sporting reminder of the past season is a look back at the French Open final between the up-and-coming talent Jannik Sinner and the Spanish superstar Carlos Alcaraz. This match was classified as a historic game and left a lasting impression on the tennis world. Many fans are hungry for more live tennis, and the fascination for the sport remains unbroken.
The coming months will be exciting for the football world as clubs and players prepare for new challenges. The enthusiasm for the sport, which can be felt both in the region's stadiums and on its pitches, remains a central part of German football culture. A positive sign for the future.
