Sports and achievements

With almost 500 members and two active men's teams that play in the association league and in the A class, the club has an important position in the region. In addition, around 150 children and young people train at FC Bienwald Kandel. In order for the training to continue to be carried out effectively and safely, support is required in purchasing mobile goals for around 3,600 euros.

The children's and youth teams are also active. The F2 youth achieved positive results in several games and took part in a Funino tournament with two teams. There were also players who were able to play in the last games with the first team as children, which was a very special experience for the young kickers.

Ultimately, the club celebrated properly after the first and second teams won the championship and looked back on the successes this year. Honors also played a role, such as Tanja Pahle being awarded the DFB watch and the support from sponsors who enrich club life.

Overall, FC Bienwald Kandel draws a consistently positive conclusion with its sporting and social activities and is ready to continue to enrich the region in sports and community terms.
