Football writes the best stories. That sounds like a pathetic saying from the great-uncle's soccer calendar. The story of Georg Hartmann, however, shows exactly that.
How the lifestyle of a soccer player from A-Class 4 Inn/Salzach can also serve as inspiration for a Champions League winner.
How soccer manages to act as a symbol and at the same time as a catalyst for lasting satisfaction.
And what potential an app has to make the difference on the pitch in the end.
Tuesday evening, 19:00, Marktl am Inn sports ground:
25 men run, slide, play short passes, jump over hurdles and do their rounds along the lime lines of the TSV venue.
It smells of sports ground — grass and men's sweat. Corona is still an issue, but you can feel the joy, the hunger for soccer. A small piece of habit and routine that comes back. You can tell the team's enthusiasm to be back on the pitch together after being banned from playing for months.
In the middle of this army of soccer players in their mid-twenties, someone stands out. Not because he moves differently, acts differently, plays a completely different ball. He plays at eye level.
But when you go to that eye level, look at him in the face, you read energy, enthusiasm, satisfaction in the here and now. But you can also see, and may he forgive the author, that he has a few more years under his belt. Georg Hartmann, known as Schorsch Sport, is over 60 years old, year of birth 1960.
Schorsch Sport is not on the pitch with these 20 to 30-year-olds because he had a fight with the Old Men's team or because they wanted to make him happy.
Schorsch Sport is an essential part of this team — on equal footing. And when you watch him straddle, read his game, see him winning duel after duel, you know why that is the case.
Anyone who tries to identify age-related signs of wear and tear after one hour of training feels that they have learned otherwise.
Schorsch Sport straddles, fits, flanks, shoots.
Schorsch Sport is one of them.
If you ask him about the secret of his success, three factors stand out.
First of all, there is this positive life energy. Schorsch Sport sees every day as a gift, but also as an obligation to make the best of it.
In conversation, you can tell that he has an unusual view of things — but an unusually positive, life-affirming, energetic one. example:
“Tens of new cells are created in the body every day. And I decide how my body is set up.” That's it: a decision — every single day.
At Schorsch Sport, this decision also means: healthy eating, which would be his second sense of success.
Only fruit and orange juice in the morning, carbohydrates and occasionally meat at noon, only salad and vegetables in the evening.
Nutritionists may argue about whether that is ideal. It is ideal for Sport Schorsch — and you can tell by looking at him.
And of course, it is sport, daily training, regular exercise that plays a large part in physical fitness — and daily meditation for inner balance.
Schorsch Sport is a big fan of CrossFit. Sport keeps him young and strengthens his muscles.
But his body also has its pitfalls — pitfalls that many others experience as early as 30 years of age. It's the hip flexor.
“The problem with me was that I only ever did what I enjoyed doing. And in soccer, it was always the case that the hip flexor was shortened and I often had massive pain after the exercise.”

And then there was corona. State of emergency. Lock-down, mouth and nose protection, contact ban.
For Schorsch Sport — and that is one of the punchlines of this story — it was a positive turning point from a sporting point of view:
Maximilian Kaltenhauser; the assistant coach of TSV Marktl, sends a message to the team and draws attention to B42, a soccer fitness app. Sport Schorsch can now also train at home. He starts the GAMECHANGER:
three months of displizine for more strength and mobility.
When it returns to square in July, the woes are: vanished.
“I was able to train for one and a half hours and the pain was permanently gone. A huge feeling of happiness. And in the meantime, I can make quick movements that were not possible before. Because the body is giving it away now. My statics have improved, my groin problems are gone. I'm sure that must be the app.”
Schorsch Sport is more stable, robust and agile — qualities that help him in every duel.
Or as he says: “He flew two meters — and I stood”.
If you ask your coach about the importance of Schorsch Sport for the team, it becomes clear what makes this soccer player and person special.
Alexander Wimmer stands on the sidelines of the Marktl sports ground and speaks highly about his most experienced player:
“Physically, he is an absolute phenomenon. That is impressive. But it is also important for us as a motivator. He has this mental strength, he pulls the other players along. You can only win with Georg.”
You can leave it as it is.
The story of Schorsch Sport is not just a lesson about the strength of a positive attitude towards life, what is possible with will and discipline.
It also shows the integrative power of soccer.
”When I'm in training, I'm one of them. Then I'm like 20 or 30, then there's no difference.”
You listen to him, feel his energy, see the sparkle in his eyes and notice once again: Football is more than just a sport.
