Lützow fire department is fighting for the title – competition on Saturday!
The Lützow Volunteer Fire Department is optimistic about the challenges ahead. After a solid second place at the official fire brigade competition last year, the troop has decided to demonstrate its skills at the upcoming competition on June 28th in Alt Meteln. Fire chief Swen Müller is concerned that it is becoming increasingly difficult to get all the emergency services together for training and competitions, but the training has been running for two weeks and is currently carried out every Wednesday and Friday. Nine dedicated firefighters will run for the Lützow-Lübstorf office. Nordkurier reports that The ambition is clearly in the air: “We are not satisfied with second place and want victory,” said Müller.
The competition on Saturday will be an exciting event for all participants and spectators. Various disciplines are planned, including tying knots, setting up a fire-fighting water supply and setting up the trestle ladder. There will also be a “fun task” that is sure to provide additional entertainment. What is particularly new this year is that the youth brigades will also carry out a wet fire extinguishing attack for the first time, while the children's teams will demonstrate their skills in using the bucket sprayer. Feusport.de emphasizes that Such competitions also offer a good opportunity to introduce younger members to firefighting sports and to strengthen youth work.

A total of 15 fire departments in the Lützow-Lübstorf district will actively participate in the 2025 election. After a period in which the official fire brigade day had to be canceled due to low numbers of participants, the situation has noticeably improved following the Corona restrictions. This gives reason to hope that the community will grow even closer together and that the next generation will continue to provide a breath of fresh air.
But organizing such competitions is not without challenges. The platform for planning and evaluating fire brigade sporting events is currently being placed on a solid basis. Old systems such as the fire service statistics, which were not intended as a planning tool, and the competition manager, which only offers limited internet functions, need to be improved. The aim is to optimize the overview of competitions, dates and results in order to be able to better support the fire departments. Firefightersport-statistics.de makes it clear that the quality of the data is crucial for future planning.
As the Lützow Fire Department prepares for the upcoming competitions, it remains to be seen whether they can realize their dream of victory. Spectators are cordially invited to watch the exciting competition at the sports field in Alt Meteln, where the competitions start at 9 a.m. A celebration of community and firefighting sports is expected!
