The highlights of the event are the presentation of the Bayer 04 Women's team around 11.25 CEST plus the presentation of the Werkself on the big stage on P3 at around 13.00 CEST.
In view of the currently increasing numbers of coronavirus cases, we are unfortunately unable to offer an autograph session one week ahead of the first Bundesliga match at Borussia Dortmund. This is to avoid players catching the virus ahead of the Bundesliga opener, which would make them unavailable for selection.
However, head coach Gerardo Seoane and all the Werkself players on the stage together with the announcer duo of Pitti Dahl and Tobias Ufer want to stand shoulder to shoulder with the fans whose support is needed in the coming weeks and months.
On site there is the option of securing a complete set of Werkself signed autograph cards free of charge via a QR code. The QR code will be available from 13.00 CEST and will be shown on all the placards at the event. Bayer 04 are making 1,000 sets of autograph cards available. It's a case of first come, first served.
For the Bayer 04 Women's team, the new head coach Robert de Pauw, sporting director Achim Feifel and several of the players of the ambitious team will do a Q&A session with Pitti and Tobias. Thomas Eichin, head of the Performance Centre, will talk about the latest developments in the Women's and Youth sections at 11.15 CEST. From 12.45 CEST the CEO Fernando Carro and sporting managing director Simon Rolfes will talk about the forthcoming season.
There will be no lack of fun and games for the younger fans: There will be lots of football and action activities ranging from a bouncy castle, the popular Robokeeper through to the Bayer 04 Soccer School soccer cage for the chance to join in and let off steam.
There will also be wide-ranging and multicultural offer of food and drink throughout the day.
