Thomas Eichin, director of the performance centre: “We are responsible for the women, as well as the coaches and support staff. The situation with the pandemic and the tightening of the lockdown regulations have brought us to the conclusion that the squad should prepare for the rest of the season here in Leverkusen.”

Afterwards, young and old alike enjoyed interactive stations such as a grip strength test and eye pupil test.
