Following the general renovation carried out in 1980, a clubhouse was built. After the expansion of the sporting offer with a strong focus on the training of young athletes and the achievement of sporting success, a new sports area with a clubhouse was created between 2002 and 2006, which is also used as a venue for fistball Bundesliga games.
