SV Darmstadt 98 invites all its members to come to the Merck Stadium at Böllenfalltor on September 16, 2025, at 5:30pm Together, we Lilies want to create the biggest team photo in our club's history—the professionals in front, the entire Lilies family behind them. You can find all the information and the link for free registration here.
Team photos have always been a big part of the fascination of football. Everyone can remember taking a close look at the players, jerseys, and new signings in the various leagues. Unfortunately, the classic team photo has faded into the background these days. Due to the longer transfer periods, the pictures are often not yet complete, but still have to be taken for the media companies.
We, the Lilies, are countering the trend: We want to make the team photo big again! As big as possible and with all our members. Come join us and be in our photo! After the end of the transfer period, we’ll all come together on Tuesday, September 16th, to take a final team photo. Our first-team squad in the front, and the entire club as the 12th man and woman behind. One big club family in one giant team photo!
Very important: To ensure it’s a truly beautiful blue and white, we ask you to wear a Lilies jersey of your choice. This will create a wall behind the team with numerous milestones from our long history.
The event is, of course, free and exclusively for members of SV Darmstadt 1898 e.V. – please bring your membership card (digital or analog) to the event.
Doors open at 5:30pm, and we’ll press the shutter button at 6:00pm.
Food and drinks will be available at the Lilien kiosks. Advance registration is required so we can adjust the organisation and setup to the number of participants. You can also register multiple people, provided they are also Lilien members.
Amateur departments and NLZ teams have the opportunity to be placed collectively as a team or group in the team photo – please register centrally via your coach or the department management at strack@sv98.de.
Not yet an official member of the Lilies family? But still want to be in the team photo? No problem. Simply become a member of SV Darmstadt 98 by September 15th and then join us for the biggest team photo in Lilies history at the Merck Stadium at Böllenfalltor.
