INVENT employees have a wide range of hobbies and talents! Our Head of Manufacturing, Maik Berndt, has been coaching the U12 youth team of FSV Stadeln for several years now, showing tremendous personal dedication and a strong passion for soccer.
This past season was intense, with the team competing against older age groups both outdoors and in indoor tournaments. Despite the challenge, they secured third place in both the fall and spring rounds of the outdoor season, and also pulled off some impressive performances indoors. For example, they reached the finals of the U13 Dambach Cup hosted by SG Quelle Furth, as well as other U13 tournaments – ultimately finishing as strong runners-up in close matches. That’s an outstanding achievement, especially considering they were consistently up against more experienced teams.
The final match day of the season brought even more excitement. Unfortunately, we were missing a bit of luck in the decisive game, a close 2–3 loss kept the team from winning the championship. But experiences like these build strong team spirit, and everyone is looking ahead with confidence.
A major highlight awaits next season: as the older U13 age group, they will be eligible to compete again in the Furth City Championship, a chance the team is already looking forward to with great excitement.
Naturally, INVENT is proud to sponsor the team’s jerseys.
Keep it up, boys!
