Women's European Championship 2025: Hellersen doctors accompany the DFB team in Switzerland!

With a refreshing flair and a touch of excitement, the 2025 UEFA Women's Championship officially began on July 2nd in Switzerland. The tournament, which marks the 14th edition of Europe's premier competition for women's national teams, is attracting the attention of football fans from across Europe. Host country Switzerland has dressed up to host the top 16 teams for exciting matches and all eyes are on the performance of the German women's national team.

The German team, which plays in preliminary group C, will face Poland, Denmark and Sweden in its first group games. The opening match against Poland will take place on Friday, July 4th, at 9 p.m. in St. Gallen. However, other matches from Groups A and B will already be played beforehand, such as the duel between Iceland and Finland, which starts today at 6 p.m. in Thun, and the eagerly awaited match between Switzerland and Norway on the same evening in Basel at 9 p.m. [zdfheute] reports that a total of 51 teams registered for qualification, with ultimately 16 teams having the chance to fight for the title.

Strong medical support for the DFB team

A central face in the field of medical care is Dr. Tobias Schmenn, who has been working as team doctor for the German women's national team since November 2021. The specialist in orthopedics and trauma surgery at the Hellersen Sports Clinic in Lüdenscheid has already gained valuable experience at the 2022 European Championships in England and the 2023 World Cup in New Zealand and Australia. Now he will also support the DFB team during the tournament in Switzerland, and he is happy to go out with his colleague Carsten Lueg, who will accompany him in the first group games. Dr. Schmenn plans to join them for the third preliminary round game and hopes to be on board until the final on July 27th in Basel. The team is well looked after and can concentrate fully on the challenges ahead.

The Hellersen Sports Clinic uses this opportunity to demonstrate its outstanding sports medicine expertise. Participation in such a top-class tournament makes the clinic's expertise impressively visible. It becomes clear here that not only the players, but also the entire team behind the scenes is excellently prepared for the challenges that lie ahead.

An important tournament in European women's football history

The UEFA Women's European Championship 2025 is not only a sporting highlight, but also an important event in the history of women's football. After adapting the previous tournament series, this is now the third edition with 16 teams. England, the defending champions, compete in Group D and will be closely watched as Switzerland prepare to host from July 2-27. The final will take place on July 27th in Basel.

The preparations are extensive and the audience can look forward to a number of attractive games. A total of around 720,000 tickets will be offered for the event, many of which have already been sold. Events to promote the tournament, which will take place in cities such as Bern, Basel and Zurich, will show how great the interest in women's football is and how the Swiss public brings the event to life.

It remains exciting to see where the German team will travel at this European Championship and what other surprises await the spectators. One thing is certain: the UEFA Women's Championship 2025 already has a lot to offer football fans!
