Trivia
When the club was founded in 1996, the club colors purple, orange and white were deliberately chosen because they do not allow any ethnic associations.
In the stadium you can occasionally see a flag with the club logo of the German Bundesliga club Hannover 96 , but instead of green in purple. This alludes to the year the association was founded. There are also friendly contacts with the Hannover 96 fan scene.
