Sachsen-Energie has been promoting mass sport in Saxony for several years. To this end, the energy supplier launched a club campaign many years ago, even before the merger of DREWAG and ENSO. In the second club campaign since the merger, 1,000 euros each will go to 25 sports clubs, including five from Dresden and five from the Meissen district.
The winners were drawn by lottery from over 200 applications. With the voucher you can buy new team clothing and sports equipment in the SachsenEnergie online shop (https://sachsenenergie.teambro.de) kaufen.
Wiking-Schweifsterne
On April 13, the members of the Wiking-Schweifsterne water sports club in Dresden-Tolkewitz were visited by a delegation from the energy supplier. They had the 1,000 euro voucher with them, which SachsenEnergie board member Lars Seiffert presented to the beaming water sports enthusiasts and then got on board himself. But what kind of sport do the Viking sisters do there on the Elbe? Because in addition to their boats, the young athletes also take balls with them, and there are also two goals in the water. The whole thing is called “canoe polo”, which has been offered here in the club since 2015 and is trained by 30 enthusiastic children.
German U16 champions
And this sport is practiced here at the highest level, as the Wiking-Schweifsterne won the German U16 championship this year and, with Johannes Förster and Anna Götze, have two squad players in the German U21 national team. But the club, which can look back on more than 100 years of history, offers not only canoe polo but also canoe slalom, hiking and white water paddling as well as stand up paddling: https://kanu-wsd.de
