Sometimes it’s the conversations between courses that give rise to new friendships and ideas. We were able to experience exactly this kind of warm, family-like atmosphere at the beginning of the week at the sponsors’ dinner hosted by the table tennis division of 1. FC Saarbrücken. In the stylish setting of the Best Western Victor’s Residenz-Hotel am Rodenhof, around 70 sponsors and friends of the club gathered.
Encounters on Equal Footing
1. FC Saarbrücken manager Nicolas Barrois demonstrated a knack for hospitality: With no formal agenda, the focus was entirely on fellowship. Long-established brands, Saarland-based small and medium-sized businesses, and international companies gathered closely around the tables that evening.
I especially remember the personal conversations with table tennis pioneer Erwin Berg and Roland Berg from Tibhar, as well as my fellow sponsors from Sparkasse and Bruno Banani. And the pros from the Bundesliga team also showed their approachable, friendly side off the table.
Growing Together—From an Early Age
At Mom’s Garden, we support individuals and families through every stage of life. We know how important health, togetherness, and encouragement are right from the start. This is exactly where the circle closes with our inne® brand, which empowers children in their everyday lives. After all, physical activity and sports start with the youngest children—supported by parents and families who encourage and support them.
The fact that our brand, inne®, was a hit at the event was evident from the 50 goodie bags we’d brought for the guests—they were gone before we knew it!
Thank you for your hospitality
1. FC Saarbrücken Table Tennis is not only a successful club but also a true sports family. We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to Nicolas Barrois and the team for inviting us to this wonderful dinner and for their warm welcome. As a company based in the Saarland, we are proud to be part of this!
