TSV Perchting is also suffering from the corona crisis, but Perchting's chairman Richard Rothdauscher sees the TSV well equipped for the 2020 financial year.

Perchting - The corona pandemic has completely paralyzed the sport. Since the introduction of exit restrictions and other state-ordered measures to contain the pandemic, the sporting operations have been put on hold for around 110 clubs in the district and for over 50 shooting clubs. On Tuesday, however, the Bavarian cabinet announced that contact-free individual sports such as tennis or golf will be allowed again from May 11th. Starnberg Mercury has started a survey among the clubs. Today Richard Rothdauscher answers our questions, Chairman of the TSV Perchting-Hadorf.

What effects does the temporary suspension of sports activities have on your club?

Since no sporting activities are allowed at the moment and these are not practicable due to the currently applicable regulations, everything in the sporting area is unused for us. The effects are of course considerable, since the communication that belongs to every sports club can practically not take place. The football department management has set up a Whatsapp group, in which news is kept up to date. It even goes so far that several soccer players have created a new anthem for TSV in their home office. The boys are just creative. Furthermore, communication via the board of directors is sent by email to the department heads, who in turn pass this on to the members. The grass of the soccer field is greener than ever and is growing and thriving. No wonder with zero stress.

"Nobody blames us as an association for the current predicament"

Are there already more and more members terminating their membership, or is it the opposite: statements by members that they will definitely stay in times of crisis and beyond?

So far there has not been a single termination at our club. Thank God. I have only received positive feedback (by association) via the currently accessible channels. As an association, no one makes us responsible for the current predicament.

What (financial) perspective do you see for your club after the weeks-long ban on sports?

Despite the considerable financial losses, I see our club well prepared for the current 2020 financial year. Of course everyone longs to finally be able to do sports again. But I find the currently applicable regulations, which the politically responsible ones have imposed on us, to be good and correct. "Health First" and there will be a time after Corona. It will and must continue - in whatever form.

"I am already expecting financial support from the BLSV or the Free State of Bavaria"

What help do you expect from sports organizations, associations or politics?

We have used the BLSV's "Digital Reporting System for Financial Damages" and registered our calculated losses there. The failure of the entire theater season and the failure of the football training camp mean considerable financial losses for our club. I am already expecting financial support from the BLSV or the Free State of Bavaria. Everywhere in public - especially now in this unspeakable situation with Corona - there is a constant proclamation of how important and indispensable volunteering and thus the work of everyone in Bavarian sports clubs is. Now is the right time to show us that these are not just empty words, but that this is also taken very seriously.

Are there any initiatives of your club in Corona times (shopping offers for older people, etc.)?

Since the fraternity is one of the driving forces in the common good alongside the TSV and the fraternity immediately established the organization "Perchting helps", we joined this group and did not see the need to install any competition group. It is now becoming clear that a village community is so important and that it is practiced and lived here in Perchting.
