Chile. By chance, I happened to have slept in the same
bed as Franz Beckenbauer. Afterwards, the Bild news-
paper showed a photo of me with the headline: “He
slept in the Kaiser’s bed” (laughs). Of course, that was
pretty motivating for me.
L. M. — Motivation is a good key word. That’s what football can
offer young people. In a team sport you practice skills,
like ambition and perseverance, in a natural way. This
also applies to the other sports we support. We pursue
our commitment very strategically. We sponsor a
sports school for the Bietigheim Steelers in ice hockey,
as well as the Basketball Academy in Ludwigsburg –
thejunior team there became the 2015 German cham-
pions. In Ludwigsburg alone, we have 2,500 children
involved in the sport. The experience all these children
gain in sport strengthens their character. Their self-
confidence develops. The sooner these types of skills
are learned, the deeper the influence they have.
Lutz Meschke and
Rainer Lorz share a
love of football.
Together they get the
ball rolling, bringing
together young people
from all walks of life.
… and is fully involved in the game.
This unbridled commitment unleashes
new energy and boosts the condence
of the young players.
