VfL Sindelfingen: men secure 5th place, women fight in the top division!

In a gripping competition that brought the Frankfurt-Höchst swimming pool to shake, the men and women from VfL Sindelfingen competed in the German team competition (DMS). While the men shone with a strong fifth place in the 2nd Bundesliga and secured their relegation, the women unfortunately had to accept the relegation to the top division. But despite the setbacks, the atmosphere was electrifying when fans cheered on their teams with drums and chants.

The DMS is not just a competition, but a festival of the team spirit that unites swimmers of all ages. Not only the top athletes swim here, but also young talents and former professionals who share their passion for sport. For VfL Sindelfingen, this meant that both teams had to deal with a total of 34 single routes, with each athlete being allowed to go into the water a maximum of five times. The men showed a closed team performance right from the start and asserted themselves in midfield, while the women fought to the last route despite illness -related failures and minimal occupation.

performance and fighting spirit

The impressive performance of the Sindelfingen women who, despite all the adversities, was praised by coach Peter Lemesch: "Both teams fought up to the last few meters and did not hang. Even if the relegation for women did not succeed, the goal for the coming season is clear: the return to the 2nd Bundesliga. The next challenges are already around the corner, because on Sunday, December 15th, the second teams of VfL Sindelfingen will compete in the Württemberg League.
