Coaches should contact our fan support team in advance for directions.

Refrain from throwing cups!

During the last season we noticed an increase in the throwing of cups and as a result we not only received penalties from the DFB sports court for this, but also had to issue numerous nationwide stadium bans.

Please refrain from throwing objects! You are endangering other people and committing dangerous bodily harm in accordance with Section 224 of the Criminal Code. It doesn’t matter whether someone is actually hit and injured with the cup.

Cannabis consumption remains prohibited

The consumption of cannabis is still prohibited based on the current law (ban in sports facilities).

Away fans in home areas

Based on recent experiences, SV 98 would like to draw attention to the following regulations and precautions that apply to this game:

Carrying visiting team fan paraphernalia is not permitted in the areas of the back straight (blocks G1-G3, O1-O4) and the south stand (S1 and S2).

The club, the police and the stewards are entitled to refuse access to these areas to away fans, even if they are in possession of a valid ticket, and/or to expel these people from these areas and, if there is still enough space, to take them to the away area of ​​the stadium. If no other suitable seat can be offered, the affected guest fan may be expelled from the stadium or denied access to the stadium; In this case there is no right to compensation.

Note to fans of the Lilies

SV 98 generally welcomes members using their right of first refusal to make people in their personal environment happy. For the future, however, he would like to point out that passing it on to fans of the visiting club can always be associated with potential security risks or even a reduction in the home advantage of the Lilies – you should not assume that you are the only Lilies fan who is doing others a favor.

The (profitable) resale of tickets is completely unacceptable, regardless of the means. If this becomes known, the ticket will be blocked immediately, the ticket will therefore become worthless for the buyer and there will be no claims for reimbursement. The SV 98 reserves the right to take further measures, such as blocking the season ticket, withdrawing membership or banning you from entering the premises. Instead, if you are unable to attend, you can use your own ticket exchange on sv98.de.

SV 98 is obliged to provide the visiting club with up to 100 tickets from the best category (main stand). Sales are the responsibility of the visiting club.

Thematic area full standing room blocks

For this game, too, it is to be expected that the standing areas will be almost completely filled to capacity. SV 98 therefore asks all fans to arrive early and to occupy seats as far away from the stairs and block entrances as possible from the moment the stadium opens. Under no circumstances should fans stand on the stairs or directly in the entrance. As a result, your friends in your block may not be able to get into the stands or, regardless of medical service operations, not be able to leave them without worry. It only works together!

Experience has shown that there are still gaps, particularly in the lower rows or the outer areas of the blocks, while there is a build-up at the block entrance at the start of the game. Furthermore, fewer standing room tickets were sold than would have been permitted. Nevertheless, everyone’s support is needed to ensure a pleasant stay for all fans.

Weather Forecast

Around 12 degrees are expected with cloudy skies in Darmstadt. The chance of precipitation is zero percent.

As Florian Kohfeldt approached the team's dressing room at halftime, the Darmstadt head coach heard exactly one sentence: "It's not finished." Fraser Hornby had uttered it, setting the tone for his teammates and himself. What followed was a remarkable second half from Darmstadt 98 and a point against SV Elversberg, a point that, while likely insufficient for their promotion hopes in southern Hesse, nonetheless filled the Darmstadt fans with pride.
