After the false start, there is no improvement in sight at BSG Taufkirchen for the time being.

But the environment understands

Taufkirchen – 1:6 in the last preparatory game against an A-class player, 2:6 at the start of the season against TSV Wartenberg – the footballers at BSG Taufkirchen have had a difficult few weeks.

And probably also in front of him, because player coach Thomas Bachmaier expects that the situation will not improve fundamentally until October.

The 33-year-old could not have dreamed of that when he made the commitment to BSG a good six months ago.

His first coaching position at FC Hohenpolding was a single success story.

He led the club into the district class and was voted the best coach in the district class by some clubs in a poll by the local newspaper.

The change to the district league seemed to be the next step in his career.

But that's not why he went to BSG, "but because it's my home club.

This is where I started playing football, and I've always come back here, even after my studies."

"I can't and don't want to forbid them to go on vacation, we're not professionals.

But I was a little disappointed that this happened so frequently," says Thomas Bachmaier about absenteeism from training.

But the BSG is no longer the successful BSG from the past.

Especially not after the bloodletting at the end of the season.

Top performers such as former player coaches Tobias Schediwy and Thomas Götzberger have left the club.

Goalscorer Andre Huber and the brothers Matthias and Lukas Loher are gone, as are Daniele Eibl and Okan Manav.

It was clear that the 14 new players (nine of them from their own youth) would not be able to absorb this.

"We knew that this year it can only be about staying up," says Bachmaier.

Precisely because of this, perfect pre-season preparation would have been helpful.

In fact, however, the BSG slipped into a misery in terms of personnel "like I've never experienced before," he says.

Injured, ill, absenteeism due to the folk festival and, above all, holidaymakers again and again - "it was not even remotely possible to bring in a team," says Bachmaier.

“The first goal of preparation is to be fit.

If you can't do that, that's bad.

If you don't get the competitive toughness in training, you won't have it in the game either."

"But if you then only have ten or twelve people in training, you don't have any more options in the starting XI.

It set itself up.”

But Bachmaier also experiences the good things that he is used to from BSG.

He is grateful to the players from the AH, who always help out in the second.

And also the environment, which shows a lot of understanding.

“Our spectators know about football.

You know that we have a difficult year ahead of us this year.

And they don't expect the young players, who have mainly played in the reserves up to now, to become top performers right away.

However, Bachmaier fully understands that six goals conceded will make the BSG heart bleed.

"However, it was also blatant, especially against Wartenberg.

Every ball fell in front of their feet in the first few minutes.” Bachmaier is encouraged that his team didn't give up afterwards.

"The morale is right in the team."

Actually, that could make him optimistic, but then Bachmaier looks back at the holiday plans and has to realize: “Two come back, four go.

The staff situation will not improve in the next few weeks.

We won't be complete until mid-September.” By then everyone will have caught up on their training deficits, it will be October.

What can a district league coach do about it?

"I can't and don't want to forbid them to go on vacation, we're not professionals," says Bachmaier.

"But the fact that this happens so often disappointed me a little." As a player, he himself has always refrained from vacation during the season, "although that's the wrong expression," says Bachmaier.

"For me it was never a sacrifice." An attitude that he knows from many of his generation.

"Something has changed," says the teacher.

Maybe that's a consolation for him and the chance for the club: Other clubs are similar.
