Security drama: SpVgg Unterhaching against an uncertain duel against Aachen!
The upcoming duel between the SpVgg Unterhaching and Alemannia Aachen next Saturday is under a questionable star. As leaga3-online.de , the municipality closed the sports park at the end of February due to a lack of security concept for high risk games. This decision raises the question of how the game can ultimately be carried out.
Currently there are three options for discussion: a ghost game, the edition in front of a maximum of 5,000 spectators or a relocation of the game to Nuremberg. A final decision should be made by Monday. However, a scenario that corresponds to a cancellation and a later edition is excluded.
criticism and uncertainty
The uncertainty not only causes resentment among fans, but also among those responsible. The technical director of Alemannia Aachen, Erdal Celik, already expressed his discomfort and demands clarity so that all fans have the opportunity to visit the game. The Fan Advisory Board of Alemannia Aachen also warns of a possible "conflict of competition" if the game should be set at short notice or at a later date.
Those responsible for SpVgg Unterhaching are also upset. Haching boss Manfred Schwabl had hoped for approval of the revised security concept, which was expected for this week. The pressure is growing in order to find a clear solution by Monday that takes into account both the interests of the fans and the security requirements.
role of security management in football
The challenges in ensuring security standards are not only noticeable in this specific case. The topic of security is of high priority throughout German football. The SRH University of Heidelberg offers special training courses in the field of security management in football in order to prepare those responsible for the diverse aspects of security and risk management. The next course starts in October 2024 and comprises seven modules that qualify the participants into certified security managers in football.
The learning content includes the role of the security officer, security analyzes in the association as well as crisis management and violence prevention. These training courses are an important part of improving security at football events, such as srh-university.de describes.The German Football Association (DFB) has the task of organizing football games and ensuring security standards. The DFB has more than 7 million members and is one of the largest sports associations worldwide. Security has top priority to make events for spectators, teams and officials safely.
