Introducing the Silver Lions

Silverlions_Logo.jpg

With increased life expectancy and the associated gain in active years, Bayer 04 want to offer young members from 55 years of age upwards a varied and entertaining programme of events. Key aspects here are active participation in social activities and to maintain mobility in advancing years.

 For example, a Walking Football training session is held every Wednesday morning where the focus is on maintaining mobility and, above all, having fun and enjoying company.

 In addition, trips are planned to attend Werkself away games where the Silver Lions will have the opportunity to play against Walking Football teams from opposing clubs. And, of course, it also involves watching Bundesliga matches.

 This results in – including beyond the boundaries of the club - the development of social contacts and a real team spirit.

 If you have any questions, suggestions or applications relating to offers to do with the Silver Lions you are welcome to call us on 0049 (0)214 8660866 or contact us via e-mail at club@bayer04.de.

New plan for the Bayer 04 Campus: Area reduced by a third, green corridor widened

Bayer 04 has presented the groups on the Monheim council with extensively revised proposals for the planned Campus. As part of constructive discussions, the club presented a plan to the CDU, SPD, Greens, FDP, PETO and the Left Party that envisages a one-third reduction in the area of the site on Alfred-Nobel-Strasse. The distance to neighbours will be increased by almost 60 percent. The green corridor will therefore be significantly larger than previously planned. Here are the main changes.
