The Stadtverband für Sport in Freising has initiated a turning point: it now operates as a registered association and under a new name.

Freising – The City Association for Sport is an institution in Freising. Since its foundation in 1977, it has been committed to the interests of sports clubs. However, it had not yet been a registered association – a deficiency that could now be remedied with a newly adopted statute. The reason for this is the legal and legal protection with regard to liability issues at events.

The sports association for sports in Freising now has the suffix "e. V." and is officially called "Stadtverband für Sport- und Schützenvereine Freising". This was the result of a marathon session in the Hofbrauhauskeller. Because it was not an easy birth: The annual general meeting, which was attended by almost two dozen club representatives as well as Mayor Birgit Mooser-Niefanger, sports consultant Jürgen Mieskes and the head of the office responsible for sports in the town hall, Karl-Heinz Wimmer, lasted over three hours. The main reason for this was the aforementioned resolution of the statutes.

"Amendment" or "recast"?

In any case, not everyone wanted the rules to be understood as an "amendment to the statutes", as it was described in the agenda. Above all, the chairman of TSV Jahn, Franz Lupp, spoke out against it. Lupp, who is also the auditor of the city association for sports, questioned the status of the organization itself – because he had never seen the old statutes from 1977. His point of view: "No statutes, no association". Chairman Sebastian Wanzke countered that the association had emerged from an association of persons at the time and had been active as a kind of interest group and as an unregistered association. That is why it is important to change this now with a corresponding statute. For this purpose, lawyer Claus Huber-Wilhelm was consulted as legal counsel. After some back and forth, it was agreed to declare the statutes as a "new version".

Unanimous vote in favour of the new statutes

However, there was no way around presenting the rules in detail. One or two changes still had to be made. But in the end, the assembly accepted and adopted the new statutes – unanimously, mind you. Much to the delight of Wanzke, who was visibly relieved and announced that after the meeting a protocol would be drawn up and sent to the clubs.

There was no doubt about the importance and merits of the City Association for Sport, which is responsible for the organization and implementation of the Old Town Festival. "We really appreciate how you get involved and how much time you invest in the sporting life in our city," said Mooser-Niefanger, emphasizing that they had recently worked out a sports development plan together. Wanzke also referred to a constant exchange with the city of Freising. In addition to the athletes' award ceremony and an old town festival, which was held well after Corona under difficult conditions, but with the help of the clubs, he emphasized, for example, the commissioning of the triple gymnasium at the elementary school at Steinpark: "It's suitable for competitions, I think it's great."

City must cut back

Finances were also a major issue: both Mooser-Niefanger and Wimmer commented on the city's tight budget situation. Both acknowledged that the budget freeze and a specially prepared report on consolidation would not be without an impact on sports clubs. "This affects a lot of things, including sports," Mooser-Niefanger explained. Mieskes said clearly and unequivocally that under these circumstances it looks bad with new sports fields, as SV Vötting, for example, has long wanted. Wimmer also did not hide the fact that the red pencil will probably be applied in all areas. "But the youth sector is taboo."

The two city councillors Nico Heitz and Hans Hölzl also took part in the debate on the budget situation. According to Heitz, one should by no means "save on sports promotion", one must find other possibilities. Hölzl saw it differently: It is better not to make big promises. "I wouldn't do that," he affirmed.

Replacement of positions on the board of directors

New elections were also held – whereby the assembly basically confirmed the proven team of the city association. However, there was one significant change: the previous vice-chairman Claus Hartmann and the previous assessor Peter Spanrad have swapped posts.
