Poing’s “Mister Sports Badge” is dead. Gottfried Scholz has now died at the age of 87.
He was able to motivate children, young people and adults alike to do something for their bodies. With his always calm and very friendly, engaging manner, he even got entire families to train for the sports badge over several weeks with the aim of getting the “Mini Olympics for everyone” badge at the end. When he was 77 years old, he completed the German sports badge for the 25th time. From 2003 to 2012 he was the official sports badge speaker for the Ebersberg sports district.
