“schauinsland-reisen” is spreading its involvement in the regional league. This is what is planned.
The tour operator “schauinsland-reisen” becomes a new partner of the West German Football Association (WDFV) and the men’s regional league West. In the new season, “schauinsland-reisen” will receive the title right “Official Premium Partner of the Regionalliga West” and will be presented as a supporter of the highest regional soccer league in North Rhine-Westphalia.
The Duisburg-based tourism company was also involved with MSV Duisburg for a long time, but will leave there during 2024. Shortly after this became known, “schauinsland-reisen” announced that the company would become the new shirt sponsor of 1. FC Bocholt in the regional league for the 2023/2024 season.
The new partnership, which will run from today, August 1, will take place in close cooperation with the streaming platform sporttotal.tv, which will also broadcast all 306 Regionalliga West matches from the stadiums and provide live commentary in the 2023/2024 season that has just started.
This social responsibility suits soccer in NRW
Peter Frymuth
Peter Frymuth, President of the West German Football Association, says: “We are looking forward to this partnership. schauinsland-reisen, with its headquarters in North Rhine-Westphalia, is a strong partner for a strong league in which the clubs create soccer with passion. The family-owned company has been involved in professional and popular sports in North Rhine-Westphalia for years, and its commitment also focuses on social and charitable causes. This social responsibility is a good fit for soccer in NRW.”
Andreas Rüttgers, head of tourism at “schauinsland-reisen”, adds: “As one of the largest tour operators in Europe, we have never lost our down-to-earth attitude and continue to invest a lot of work and love in our profession. These are also the basic virtues of many clubs in the regional league. The staff and fans of the individual clubs also invest an incredible amount of love and work in their clubs. Soccer has always been more than just competing for success. Soccer connects generations, and is therefore just as important to people as a vacation, as both allow the stressful everyday life to fade into the background for a certain time. The fact that we are now a partner of arguably the best 4th division in Europe gives us great pleasure, and we also want to express our appreciation and respect for all the fans and employees of these clubs. “
