The sport of young women and men

Girls from nearby villages have been part of the team for many years and the team would like to continue introducing many young talents from the region for a future in soccer shoes. ft. In order to achieve this goal, shared visions, cooperation and support from many quarters are needed: “This year the support comes from the neighboring towns and the women’s team proudly bears the name SPG Eidenberg / Geng / Lichtenberg / Gramastetten. With this merger, the starting signal was given for a proactive and good cross-border cooperation,” according to Katherine Kopelmüller of Lichtenberg. In addition to playing games in Lichtenberg and Gramastetten, joint youth work and performances in schools are also on the agenda.
