On the one hand, there is the tranquil spa town in the Grabfeld area with its population of only about 6,000. On the other hand, Main Franconia\u2019s major city with countless administrative offices, churches and shops. And yet Bad K\u00f6nigshofen and W\u00fcrzburg do have something in common: Both cities are home to a sporting first division team that is considered a crowd puller and is increasingly \u00adknocking on the door to the play-off ranks. Only the size of the ball differs considerably.     <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9db637d e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"9db637d\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1a36ec8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"1a36ec8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>While a table tennis ball weighing just 2.7 g flies over the tables at the highest level in Grabfeld, a basketball \u00adweighing around 650 g is regularly dunked in the \u00adbasket in W\u00fcrzburg. In both cases, the teams thrill the crowds. Around 600 spectators on average make the pilgrimage to the Shakehands Arena for TSV Bad K\u00f6nigshofen\u2019s home table tennis matches, which \u00adcorresponds to a considerable ten per cent of the local popula\u00adtion. Only \u00adrecord champion Borussia D\u00fcsseldorf had a higher attendance average in recent years.   <\/p>\n<p>The W\u00fcrzburg Baskets cannot compete with the best clubs in their class with this value. But that is mainly due to their small hall, which \u201conly\u201d holds 3,140 fans. The tectake Arena is almost always nearly full at the home basketball games though \u2013 and as loud as hell.  <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b0c7319 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"b0c7319\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5c73901 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"5c73901\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6548227 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"6548227\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"512\" src=\"https:\/\/wirtschaftsstandortmainfranken.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/weboptimiert_Golfen_Wuerzburg-768x512.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium_large size-medium_large wp-image-5568\" alt=\"Die vom Bundesverband Golfanlagen mit 5 von \n5 Sternen \u00adklassifizierte Golfanlage in W\u00fcrzburg geh\u00f6rt \nzu den sch\u00f6nsten \u00adS\u00fcddeutschlands \u2013 und ist dabei nur \neiner von 8 Golfpl\u00e4tzen in Mainfranken.\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wirtschaftsstandortmainfranken.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/weboptimiert_Golfen_Wuerzburg-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wirtschaftsstandortmainfranken.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/weboptimiert_Golfen_Wuerzburg-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wirtschaftsstandortmainfranken.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/weboptimiert_Golfen_Wuerzburg-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/wirtschaftsstandortmainfranken.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/weboptimiert_Golfen_Wuerzburg-1536x1025.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">The golf course in W\u00fcrzburg, classified with 5 out of 5 stars by the German Golf Association, is one of the most beautiful in southern Germany - and is just one of 8 golf courses in Mainfranken.

Not quite. Both Main \u00adFranconian clubs have rather small budgets compared to the rest of the league and have to stretch them quite a bit every year to put \u00adtogether a solid squad. After all, the sporting aspirations are pretty ambitious. All the more reason to value the fact that the table tennis and basketball players regularly excel, thus boosting the region\u2019s image and creating a buzz at grassroots \u00adlevel.    <\/p>\n<p>Main Franconia definitely has something to be proud of when it comes to other sports too. It is well known that football is the most popular sport in Germany. The figureheads here are the regional league teams W\u00fcrzburger Kickers, FC 05 Schweinfurt and TSV Aubstadt. Incidentally, the latter is at home in the Grabfeld area, just like TSV Bad K\u00f6nigshofen. Aubstadt actually has less than 1,000 inhabitants. In the hilly landscape not far from the Rh\u00f6n, they obviously excel at sport. In 2019, the Aubstadt team made the leap to the fourth highest division for the first time.      <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1857c6b e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"1857c6b\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5a08b97 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"5a08b97\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>W\u00fcrzburg Kickers have played twice in the Second Bundesliga in recent years \u2013 and caused a sensation there under coach Bernd Hollerbach. In any case, the preliminary round of the 2016\/17 season was memorable, with the red team finishing sixth in front of 12,475 spectators at the Stadion am Dallenberg with a 3:0 home win over the great VfB Stuttgart. Nevertheless, after a second half of the season without a win, the team was rele\u00adgated. At the end of the season, the Kickers lost 1:4 to the same \u00adStuttgart team, who managed to return to the Bundesliga as a \u00adresult. Never before had a Lower Franconian sports team played in front of the backdrop of the Mercedes-Benz Arena at that time (around 60,000 spectators).    <\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the Covid-19 pandemic and a sporting slump led to a drop in fans for the Rimpar second-division handball team, which renamed itself W\u00f6lfe W\u00fcrzburg in August 2022. Sadly, this change of name turned out not to be a good omen. In June 2023, the Wolves suffered bitter relegation after exactly ten years at this \u00adlevel. The Green-Whites even came knocking on the Bundesliga\u2019s door \u00adtwice during this period. In the 2016\/17 season, they only failed to achieve the sensation on the very last match day when they came up short on goals in L\u00fcbeck. Otherwise, the club from the market town north of W\u00fcrzburg would \u00adhave moved on to face THW Kiel, SC Magdeburg and Rhein-\u00adNeckar L\u00f6wen.     <\/p>\n<p>But despite all the joy about the sporting highs of Main Franconia\u2019s top clubs, other local heroes are always needed. In other words, players who have their roots in the region. At TSV Bad K\u00f6nigshofen, that is Kilian Ort. He has been playing table tennis there ever since he was old enough to pick up a paddle \u2013 and has always \u00adremained loyal to his club over the years. In January 2023, Ort beat former world number one Timo Boll for the first time in his life.     <span style=\"text-align: var(--text-align); background-color: var(--nv-site-bg); letter-spacing: var(--bodyletterspacing);\"> <\/span><\/p>\n<p>Among the W\u00fcrzburg Baskets, the local hero is Felix Hoffmann. In the \u201cMain-Post\u201d local newspaper, the long-time captain talked about the support from the fans and the people around the team after a victory in the spring of 2023 that nobody believed to be possible: \u201cWe have a very special situation in W\u00fcrzburg that does not exist at every location. Every player, the coaches, the \u00adpeople in the office. That\u2019s what often gives us an extra push.\u201d One that Dirk Nowitzki might also remember fondly. The former German basketball star began his impressive career here and was even inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame in August 2023.   <\/p>\n<p>In Rimpar, an entire generation of players from the town even made the leap from the Landesliga (state league) to the second Bundesliga within a few years. Such local colour is an absolute rarity in professional sport. And over the years, more and more players from the outside have joined the Wolves.  <\/p>\n<p>Besides the team sports, the individual sports and their \u00adchampions are also more than worth a mention. W\u00fcrzburg swimmer \u00adLeonie Beck, for example, has won gold, silver or \u00adbronze over 5 and 10 kilometres in open water several times in recent years. After her biggest triumph to date, gold in the 10 km at the 2022 \u00adEuropean Championships in Rome, she won both distances in Fukoka, \u00adJapan, in 2023 and was suddenly \u00addouble world champion. This also qualifies her for the 2024 \u00adOlympic Games in Paris. Foil fencer Leonie Ebert has also \u00adrecently \u00adachieved great success on the planche. In rowing, too, the two W\u00fcrzburg clubs repeatedly produce German champions and also \u00adcelebrate international successes. The list goes on in other sports.      <\/p>\n<p>But in Main Franconia, of course, there\u2019s more than just \u00adelite sports. \u00adPopular sport has just as big a following. After the slump in club \u00admemberships due to Covid-19, a reversal in this trend could be seen again in 2022. At that time, almost half a mil\u00adlion people across Lower Franconia were members of one of the 1,627 clubs, according to the official figures from the Baye\u00adrische \u00adLandes-Sportverband (BLSV). W\u00fcrzburg hosts two \u00adannual \u00adrunning events, the Residenzlauf around the UNESCO World Heritage Site and the city marathon, which impres\u00adsively combine \u00adpopular and elite sports. And the many open-air \u00adcompetitions \u00adoutside the cities, for example in the Rh\u00f6n-Grabfeld \u00addistrict, are also very popular.     <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-738572e e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"738572e\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6e07947 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"6e07947\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"796\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/wirtschaftsstandortmainfranken.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/LeonieBeck_weboptimiert-796x1024.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-5571\" alt=\"Die mehrfache Schwimm-Weltmeisterin Leonie Beck aus W\u00fcrzburg ist eine der deutschen Medaillenhoffnungen bei den Olympischen Spielen 2024 in Paris.\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wirtschaftsstandortmainfranken.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/LeonieBeck_weboptimiert-796x1024.jpg 796w, https:\/\/wirtschaftsstandortmainfranken.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/LeonieBeck_weboptimiert-233x300.jpg 233w, https:\/\/wirtschaftsstandortmainfranken.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/LeonieBeck_weboptimiert-768x988.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wirtschaftsstandortmainfranken.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/LeonieBeck_weboptimiert-1194x1536.jpg 1194w, https:\/\/wirtschaftsstandortmainfranken.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/LeonieBeck_weboptimiert.jpg 1561w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 796px) 100vw, 796px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Multiple swimming world champion Leonie Beck from W\u00fcrzburg is one of Germany's medal hopes for the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris.
