SV Battweiler is looking for new momentum: change of coach and big plans!

SV Battweiler recently caused mixed feelings in the West District League. Despite a decent start with five wins, including an impressive 5-2 cup win against SG Rieschweiler, the team is currently in the middle of the table. Coach Daniel Lenhard and assistant coach Pablo Geßner have recorded nine wins and eight defeats by the winter break. With 27 points, SVB winters in tenth place, which is eight points clear of a relegation zone, but also clouds the prospect of possible relegation as they are seven points behind second place. “In some games we weren’t determined and gave away gifts at the back,” said Lenhard about the performance so far. SV Battweiler is already planning to start preparations on January 14th in order to be optimally prepared for the second half of the season, starting with the league game on March 1st against SV Gundersweiler.

Change of coach for the coming season

SV Battweiler is facing a surprising change: coach Daniel Lenhard will give up his position after this season and will only be available as a “stand-by player” in the future. However, Pablo Geßner remains on board and will take over the sporting management together with Fabian May, who will act as assistant coach from the new season. “I notice that I am no longer as determined as before,” Lenhard explains his withdrawal and points to the need for a breath of fresh air in the club. May, who is currently out due to a torn cruciate ligament, will play a central role in the new coaching duo. “Fabian is one of the most ambitious people I know,” Lenhard praised his successor.

In another remarkable game in the Pirmasens-Zweibrücken football A class, SpVgg Waldfischbach-Burgalben pulled off a surprise coup against SV Battweiler. They shocked the home team with a 1-0 win over the second-placed team and ensured that league leaders FK Petersberg were able to further extend their lead at the top. Martin Gampfer scored the decisive goal for Waldfischbach in a game that took place in front of 250 spectators. The result highlights the increasing competition in the league and the challenges that the teams have to face, while SV Battweiler can hope for fresh ideas and pressure in the second half of the season to improve their performance.
