Preußen Münster has opened its summer training camp in Ankum for a third consecutive week, bringing the full professional squad and injured players along. The aim: intensive preparation, strengthen team cohesion, and improve the performance curve before the season starts.

Why was Ankum chosen for the training camp?

The decision fell on the lake and sports hotel in Ankum because it served as a base in 2024 and 2025. The short travel – about one hour by car or one and a half hours by bus – saves time and allows a quick return to Münster. Coach Michael Schmid stresses that the familiar setting and uncomplicated organization keep the focus on training without logistical distractions.

Which players are involved and how are injuries handled?

All professional players, including captain Jan‑Marten Scherzer and forward Luca Bolay, train together. Additionally, two injured players still in rehab were taken along to integrate them into the daily routine. Schmid explains that the camp environment supports the healing process and eases the return to the squad.

What is the current sporting situation?

Preußen Münster currently competes in the Regionalliga Nordost, fighting for promotion spots while also keeping an eye on the statistic League standing: 18th in 2. Bundesliga, 30 pts, 6W-12D-16L from 34 games, recent form LDDLL to pursue long‑term goals. The coaching staff uses the camp to test tactical variations and tighten the defense, which has so far conceded 61 goals.

What lies ahead for the team after the camp?

After the one‑week stay in Ankum, Preußen Münster returns with a clear training plan. The next fixtures are looming, with the next league match against Verl scheduled for 28 November 2026. Schmid hopes the intensive training will boost the squad for upcoming challenges and push the form curve upward.

How do fans benefit from this approach?

For supporters, the training camp brings more transparency: live updates from Ankum, training videos, and interviews are shared through club channels. This keeps the bond between the club and its fans strong while the team works behind the scenes on its performance.
