Women: Bayer 04 extend contact with head coach Achim Feifel

“We are very happy with Achim Feifel’s work. We need continuity in this position to achieve our ambitious targets,” said Thomas Eichin, head of the Kurtekotten Performance Centre. “Achim Feifel has developed the team as we imagined and we are looking forward to carrying on working with him.”

The qualified sports teacher took over in 2019/20. The Werkself Women stayed up in the first season finishing in tenth place and also progressed to the semi-finals of the DFB Cup. The work of the coaching staff in terms of fitness as well as technical and tactical aspects has certainly paid off since the start of this season. Before the end of the first half of the season, the Bayer 04 Women had more points than in the whole of the previous campaign (17) and are currently fifth in the table on 29 points with four games to play.

“I really enjoy working with this totally ambitious team who are happy to learn. We have already made very good progress here at Bayer 04 and the girls have always believed in themselves, the team and our success, ” said Achim Feifel. “I’m happy about the confidence shown in me and also carrying on in the same way together.”
