"The island has again and again been worth a visit for us for over a decade. After the 2020 World Cup, we had to find a holiday destination very quickly and that's how we ended up here. Ibiza is now almost like a second home for us. Obviously not to party all the time but more because we can just really relax there and also have great days out. And it's brilliant for the children being able to knock around outdoors."
"One of the many sensational places we got to know and fell in love with on our world tour. We have been back there too. The beach between Cancun and Tulum with its Maya ruins is simply fabulous. We had a wonderful hotel there where we quickly felt at home. On top of that, the Mexicans are super friendly and approachable people."
"We landed up there in 2018 as part of our global tour. We spent six days there and had a great time. The city itself is fascinating but we were more excited by the fantastic opportunities in the surrounding area, which we also investigated on bicycles. The expanse of the countryside is simply incredible. We definitely want to go back there again and rent a lodge somewhat further outside the city."
"We've been coming to Lermoos over Christmas and New Year for ten years. We stay in a family hotel where the regular guests get on with each other really well. There is a gorgeous panorama in the Tyrol, the kids go skiing and I go for walks with the dog – simply brilliant. And now I can move really well again after my hip operation, perhaps I might learn to ski again as I'm getting on."

“Year after year, this is an incredibly valuable gathering, both in terms of the content covered and the opportunity for mutual discussion,” stressed Bayer 04 goalkeeping coach David Thiel in his welcoming address at this year’s goalkeeping coaches’ meeting. This was the third time in four seasons that the event had been held at the BayArena. Organised by the German Football Association (DFB), the meeting brought together goalkeeping coaches from the Bundesliga, Bundesliga 2 and the 3rd division from the west region. For the first time this year, goalkeeping coaches from the youth performance centres (NLZ) were also present. Bayer 04 fitness coach Markus Müller provided fascinating insights into the specific fitness training carried out with the Werkself’s goalkeepers.

It was another incredibly close call in the end: The second showdown in the 2026/27 VBL Club Championship saw the #B04eSports team once again narrowly miss out on a place in the top 16 of the preliminary round – and with it, a spot in the in-person knockout stage. It was a bitter blow: Marc and Sean Landwehr again fell just short, despite being level on points with their rivals. As was the case last month, their weaker record across the twelve individual matches in the six preliminary round fixtures proved decisive.
