There were again no elections held this year. New elections will be held in 2023. Linda Schöttler (Women), Friedhelm Renno (Council of Elders), Dirk Dreher (Veterans team) and Roman Klossek (Youth) plus Jürgen Gelsdorf as chair of the football section have all recently been confirmed in their posts.
The welcome from Jürgen Gelsdorf was followed by remembering Bayer 04 members who have passed away over the last twelve months. Then came the time to honour those members who have been part of TSV Bayer 04 for 25 years and longer. The following were honoured for 25 years of Bayer 04 membership: Thomas Gesella and Fabian Ewertz. Honouring for 40 years of membership went to: Dr. Andreas Offermann. Gerd Kruse could look back at 50 years of membership. And that’s not all: Jürgen Koller, Alfons Kanthak and Klaus-Dieter Hensgen have been loyal to the club for 70 years. All those honoured this year and from the past three years have been invited to attend a Werkself Bundesliga match next season.
The management on the podium then provided a review of the sporting year. Linda Schöttler, general manager of the Bayer 04 Women’s team started. Thomas Eichin, head of the Performance Centre at Kurtekotten, then reported on the work at Kurtekotten and Dirk Dreher presented the preview of coming events involving the Bayer 04 Veterans team.
No motions were submitted to the meeting.
