Liked the stadium

However, the club still has some homework. After all, those in charge are still plagued by concerns about not being able to present a suitable place for the third category. Sports Director Rogo Teachman mentions discussions with clubs in the Berlin Senate and the Brandenburg area about ways to use their stadiums for third division home games.

Then one option failed: Carl Lipneck Stadium in Potsdam was unavailable. Regional League Club S.V. With the exception of Babelsburg 03, 1. FFC Turbine Potstom already uses Carly for its home games in the women’s Bundesliga. On the other hand, the home games of the Potsdam Royals in the German Football League are set to be played at Babelsberger Park from next season.

Most of the regional leagues supported the situation last Wednesday.

All regional league matches are free

Despite all the current difficulties, regional league football in the Northeast will be presented in more detail from the upcoming season. Last Monday, NOFV signed a deal with newly formed television production company Astsport TV and acquired broadcasting rights for four seasons. MDR, a former television partner, did not want to extend its expired contract.

In addition to being a Berlin lawyer, the founder of Astford TV is longtime ZDF and Sky presenter Haiko Malvitz, who serves as the station’s media director. Malvitz announced that in the future all games will be broadcast and received free of charge on a regional league match day – be it a live game or an acronym. “We want to broadcast a live game every day that the regional league plays or produce directly to MDR or RBP,” he said. According to NOFV President Herman Winkler, it is unclear how long the clubs will be involved financially.
