The favorites of the district league A3: Who makes the jump up?

The upcoming season in the district league A3 promises to become particularly interesting through numerous changes and exciting developments. While the first games are coming on Sunday, August 18, a large number of teams have already prepared intensively for the new season and have made some changes.

Growth through newcomers and objectives

A central point that will shape the coming season are the newcomers to the teams. The TV Steinheim, for example, has committed experienced players with the players Lukas Laible, Christian Lux and Maik Behr. However, the latter cannot play due to injury, which the team presents with additional challenges. The trainer Maximilian Laible describes the first season as a transition period, which is nevertheless associated with a clear goal: returning to the upper table regions.

Trainers who motivate their teams

Patrick Schwarz, coach of TSV Gussenstadt, speaks of a mixed preparation that was characterized by vacation and injury cases. Nevertheless, he emphasizes the winning of the albpokal, which could increase the motivation of the team. "We strive to get under the top five. Fifth place is our minimum goal," explains Schwarz with conviction. He also sees HSG Königsbronn/Oberkochen as well as the district league relegated Steinheim and Schnaitheim as favorites.

The size and variety of teams

Thanks to a variety of new additions, HSG Königsbronn/Oberkochen can fall back on an extended squad that offers new opportunities for team dynamics. Mersad Haskovic, who is convinced of the stability of the defensive, clearly formulates the goals for the new season: staying under 30 goals. "We now have more players in training than before, that is a new challenge that we have to master," he describes his situation.

The willingness to enjoy the coaches to push themselves into the favorite role is surprisingly low. Erdal Kalin, coach of TSG Schnaitheim, emphasizes that the focus is on reaching a place among the top five teams. Remzi Hyseni from ASV Heidenheim also says that they want to stay in the midfield of the table, but the relegated Steinheim and Schnaitheim sees as the main competitor.

In addition, the teams have also positioned themselves wider in order to be able to intercept any failures better due to injuries. Semih Köksal from Türkspor Heidenheim talks about the fact that quality in the squad is crucial to play in the league in front and to challenge the favorites.
