Hennef sports school

The FVM is the sponsor of the Hennef sports school . This is one of the leading sports schools in Europe and, in addition to the core sport of football, is the federal performance center for boxing and wrestling as well as the state performance center for weightlifting and judo . Due to the numerous visits by the German national soccer team , including before the World Cup in 1954 , as well as well-known top teams from a wide variety of sports from home and abroad, the Hennef sports school also gained national fame.

The foundation stone of the sports school was laid on October 1, 1949, before it was ready for occupancy in the summer of 1950. After a comprehensive modernization of a total volume of 6.8 million euros as part of the 2006 World Cup , for which none of the participating nations decided to move into their quarters in the sports school, the sports school has 3 grass pitches, one artificial turf pitch, one artificial turf hall and two Multipurpose halls, each with a special hall for the sports of judo, boxing, wrestling and weightlifting, a weight room, an outdoor pool (50 m lanes) with a ten meter tower and an indoor pool (25 m lanes), nine seminar rooms and a modern IT room as well the spacious auditorium. It also has 200 beds in four different categories.
