Borussia Dortmund's Official Fan Club Tournament Takes Place In Kitzbuhel Alps
It was a very special autumn day in the Kitzbühel Alps: After a long pandemic-related break, Borussia Dortmund's only official fan club tournament could finally take place again in 2021. The participating teams from two countries were particularly delighted with this, as it was about the coveted title of “Best BVB Fanclub 2021”! And that events around Borussia Dortmund are always connected with a lot of emotions, that this tournament proved again.
Even before the tournament started in Westendorf, last year's winners and defending champions set their first scent brand: They traveled in their own, nigel-nagel-new coach, completely in the BVB look. The "Ösi-Borussen 1909" financed this dream themselves through the members, through a lot of sponsors and with the help of a coach partner company. The official handover of the bus took place directly in Dortmund by the BVB officials. The first trip took the group by bus to the Kitzbühel Alps - to the 9th BVB fan club tournament.
The tournament itself was characterized by high-quality games, fairness and, for the first time this year, the good cause. Already in the preliminary round of the tournament (six teams - each against each other) a tight performance level became apparent. The previous year's winners and defending champions, the Ösi-Borussen 1909, found their temporary champions, especially in the BVB Domstadt kickers, and had to admit defeat 1: 2. BSV Borussia Gründberg also showed their skills and ranked among the top favorites to win the tournament. What seemed to be emerging in the preliminary round changed suddenly in the semifinals. Both the first-placed Domstadt Kicker and BSV Borussia Gründberg had to admit defeat to their respective opponents. Only last year's winner, the Ösi-Borussen 1909, made it into the final with a narrow victory, in which they then secured another tournament victory with a clear victory over the "Oachkatzl'n".
For the first time in the history of the tournament, the focus was on a good cause. The game was played for the benefit of children with cancer. The BVB kickers did not have to be asked twice and with their generous donations at the end of the day they raised a total of € 1,500. Borussia Dortmund also put an originally signed jersey of the current fighting teams on top of it for auction for a good cause.
As the tourist partner region of Borussia Dortmund, the Tyrolean holiday region "Kitzbüheler Alpen - Brixental" organized the only official BVB fan club tournament for the 9th time. Next year the 10th anniversary will be celebrated in the middle of the picturesque mountains of the Brixental. By the way, the tourism region is also home to the largest holiday course of the EVONIK football academy of BVB, which will also be celebrating its 10th anniversary in 2022. And in keeping with this, the tourism experts only recently completed the contract extension with BVB for a further four years.
The Brixental with the towns of Brixen im Thale, Kirchberg and Westendorf is located in the middle of the Kitzbühel Alps, in the eastern part of Tyrol and promises a lot of alpine holiday activities in summer, such as mountain biking, hiking, golf, or countless mountain adventure worlds for children and families. In winter, the region is one of the most famous and largest ski regions in Austria. With more than 500 kilometers of slopes, KitzSki and SkiWelt Wilder Kaiser - Brixental conjure up the best winter sports conditions on the slopes - accessible with just one ski pass. The Brixental is where MASSIVE experiences meet GENTLE moments. MASSIVELY soft. Borussia Dortmund's ideal tourism partner.
