Veronika Reischl is an integral part of TSV Poing.
The 40-year-old takes care of the small field coordination and event management in the club.
Poing – She has only lived in Poing since 2011.
Almost at the same time, their sons Dennis and Julian, now 16 and 14 years old, started playing football.
When her husband quickly became active as a trainer in his new place of residence, she had no choice but to get involved as well.
"After all, I didn't want to sit at home alone at the weekend."
Today it is hard to imagine life without her, and Poing's football department manager Ludwig Auer says: "She is one of my most important employees.
Nothing works without her.” She, that is Veronika Reischl (40), small field coordinator and event manager at TSV Poing.
"I'm chronically bored" - Veronika Reischl jokingly about her daily workload
"You grow into it," says Veronika Reischl, who has a part-time job with a health insurance company in addition to her job, is also a member of the Poinger municipal council and takes care of the family.
In view of her self-confident manner and her joking statement, one believes that she gets everything under one roof and that her day does not have more than 24 hours: “I am chronically bored.
Besides, I have an opinion on everything.”
Your career with the little kickers came about almost inevitably.
"During training, games and all that goes with it, you quickly see that a lot could be done better," recalls the 40-year-old.
"Yes, and then it just develops so slowly."
TSV Poing: Department head Ludwig Auer promoted the 40-year-old
A few years have passed since Ludwig Auer registered her energy and involved her in the work of the department.
The department has grown, and with it the demands.
It is now a matter of course that even the minis compete in uniform outfits, that coordinated youth work is carried out from the bottom up and that new teams are constantly being formed.
The Poinger tournaments and events have also blossomed into something special in the region.
"We are only so successful because we have good people," explains the head of department, emphasizing Veronika Reischl and her husband Marco, who is now deputy TSV chairman: "They are very, very important for the team, for the department, enjoy a high sympathy factor.”
Veronika Reischl's motivation: "The children should be able to play football and have fun with it"
Which should also be due to Veronika Reischl's attitude.
She wants "the little ones to be able to play football and have fun with it and not for parents to try to make stars out of the children." A goal that is difficult to achieve in Corona times.
Because there is no contact with the parents, with the children.
"But that would be so important."
Complaints that training and playing opportunities have been lost due to the pandemic can only be heard very occasionally.
The terminations of membership in this regard are correspondingly low.
"We even have more inquiries in the small field area," says Reischl, "if we don't have one, it's a problem with children."
Even if the trained doctor's assistant gets involved in her voluntary work with the Poinger junior footballers, she would not be angry if she found a successor for one or the other sub-area.
"Someone who could take my clothes orders.
That would be a start.” A Poing youth football department without Veronika Reischl?
Difficult to imagine!
