On September 3rd, children, young people, and their parents can find out about the new offering and get some hands-on experience with the punching bag.
The opening of the BoxKlub Martinsviertel (BKMV) is fast approaching. On Thursday, September 3, the new boxing club will open its doors for the first time at 5pm. At the Baas Hall (Pankratiusstraße 35), interested children and young people—along with their parents—can find out more about the new program without any obligation and get a first taste of boxing.
The BoxKlub Martinsviertel is a joint project involving SV Darmstadt 98, Rope e.V., and the Youth Services department of the City of Darmstadt. Rope e.V. is responsible for running the program. The first regular training session will take place one week after the open house event.
The launch event on September 3rd focuses on introductions. In addition to receiving information about the new boxing club, visitors will have the chance to get active themselves and try out punching bags or focus mitts while wearing boxing gloves. Food and drinks will also be provided, including a barbecue.
The program is free of charge and aimed at children and young people aged 12 to 21. The club also provides the necessary equipment. Those interested can sign up for the open event without obligation and drop by to learn about the program and get a feel for the sport of boxing.

Florian Kohfeldt answered questions from the assembled journalists at our press conference ahead of the away match against Dynamo Dresden (August 16, 1:30pm). We have summarised the key points from Kohfeldt’s remarks for you.
Following a difficult first half of the season after their promotion, Dynamo Dresden increasingly found their footing in the 2. Bundesliga over the course of the previous campaign. The Saxon side really stepped up their game in the second half of the season, climbing from the bottom of the table to finish in eleventh place and secure their survival in the league. On the sidelines, SGD continues to place its trust in Thomas Stamm, who has been in charge since the summer of 2024. After an opening 3–0 defeat in Nürnberg, SV Darmstadt 98 now awaits them in the first home match of the new season.
SV 98 has confirmed the signing of a new central striker: Milan Smit will be hunting for goals for the "Lilies." The 23-year-old Dutchman is joining the club at the Böllenfalltor on loan from Stoke City until the end of the season.
SV 98 has found a new transition coach in Marcel Titsch Rivero. The 36-year-old succeeds Maximilian Mehring in this role; Mehring has been serving as Sporting Director of the youth academy since March of this year.
