Zwickau gives: 216,000 euros rent subsidy for BSV Saxony!

in Zwickau can finally be breathed in! After a long waiting time, the Finance Committee decided on Tuesday, June 17, to subsidize the rent for the games of BSV Sachsen Zwickau. The amount amounts to 216,000 euros, a small but important step for the handball league team, which had originally applied for 217,000 euros. The incision goes back to an application from the AfD, which had to reduce the hope of full funds for the time being.

BSV President Thomas Müller was relieved by the decision and emphasized the importance of the grant to finally start searching for sponsors. The blockade of the past few months in the form of four dutby decisions caused uncertainty within the club and fans. BSW parliamentary group leader Bernd Rudolph made it clear at the meeting that the players of BSV Saxony play a central role in the city's sport and represent Zwickau.

a signal for women's handball

Rudolph also warned that the persistent blockade through some groups endangers the planning security of the association and send an unfavorable signal for women's handball in Zwickau. This reflects a broader problem: many municipalities, including Zwickau, are crucial for promoting sport. According to the German Cities Day, around 80 percent of total public expenditure in sports is on the account of the municipalities that have a strong impact on local sports policy.

The background paper "Local Sports Policy and Sports Promotion" calls for a rethink in sports policy. The need for well -equipped sports facilities and the promotion of individual sports in public spaces are central points. More and more people are active until old age and use green areas, parks and cycle paths for their sporting activities. Thus, the support of clubs such as BSV Saxony is not only important for the sports community, but also promotes the quality of life in the city.

a step in the right direction

The decision of the Finance Committee is not only a financial grant, but a sign of appreciation for the committed athletes of BSV Saxony. It shows that the city of Zwickau continues to stand behind its sport and is aware of what role handball plays for the community. The work of the association and the commitment of the players must not fall under the table, because they are who hold up the women's handball in the region with passion and energy.
