Herbert Lenz: The heart of Dornbirner SV beats stronger than ever!
Herbert Lenz has shaped Dornbirner SV (DSV) for more than two decades. The 71-year-old has been a central figure in the club, which was founded in 1954, as chairman since 1998. Under his leadership, the club has experienced both lows and highs. Today, Dornbirner SV is not only a sporting player, but also an integral part of the local community. Lenz is regularly active at the club premises in the Emma & Eugen Arena, where he is involved in technical and organizational work.
Numerous infrastructure projects have been implemented in recent years, including the construction of an additional training facility and a multi-purpose building. The conversion of hot water heating to solar energy also shows the commitment to sustainable practices. In 2023, Lenz celebrated his silver anniversary as club chairman and became known in the football community as “Prése”.
The path of Dornbirner SV
Dornbirner SV has done well in the VN.at Eliteliga and is currently in 4th place, which enables promotion to the West League. On Sunday there was an exciting city derby against SC Admira Dornbirn, which was of great importance for both teams.

With the aim of collecting a lot of points in home games, Dornbirner SV coach Erik Regtop set clear criteria. He emphasized the need to make the most of the team's strengths. SC Admira, on the other hand, competed as outsiders, which promised informality and a certain lack of pressure, as coach Herwig Klocker noted. This starting situation promised an exciting competition in the Emma & Eugen Arena.
