Neuss, a city in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, is known for its vibrant sports scene. With over 30,000 members participating in sports, both organized and non-organized, it remains a significant initiative in the city area.
In 2024, Neuss sports faced budget consolidation, but details about the specific strategies employed or the associated buzzwords like "sustainability" and "public-private partnerships" are yet to be found.
The centennial anniversary of Jahn Stadium, a key sports venue in Neuss, passed in 2024, with planned activities and highlights by clubs, sports administration, and the city sports association. However, no direct information or event details were uncovered.
One of the future projects for Neuss sports is the LAGA 2026, which is expected to develop in terms of sports usage. Ideas for the project are present, and its implementation will be tested to ensure appropriate sports usage after 2026. A concern for the project's implementation is the usage of the racetrack for organized and non-organized sports after 2026.
Volunteers in sports clubs are considered the backbone of Neuss sports, taking on increasingly diverse tasks. Despite the trend of introducing professional structures in the clubs, their significant contribution to sports being a part of society cannot be overlooked.
The city sports association is continuing its flagship project "Neuss gets moving," focusing on the sports check in the 2nd and 5th grades of Neuss schools to gather data on student's physical condition.
In terms of infrastructure, there is a significant backlog of investments in indoor and outdoor sports facilities. The major project of TG Neuss on Schorlemer Street is making good progress.
Looking ahead, the "Wall of Fame" of Neuss sports will welcome Hans-Peter Heinen (athletics), Walther Lonnes (hockey), Ernst-Ludwig-Hansmann (tennis), and Elke Sprink (hockey), all with a connection to the Jahn Stadium. Notably, in 2023, the city achieved its savings goal of 250,000 euros without introducing daily fees for using sports facilities.
