Although preparations for the 2024/2025 season only begin in three weeks on Monday, June 24, the vacation is already over for the professionals of the ADMIRAL Bundesliga sixth-place team of the past season, Austria Klagenfurt. Because assistant coach Martin Lassnig had in consultation with Head coach Peter Pacult created a training plan, the captain Thorsten Mahrer & Co. must be completed individually during the summer break.

“There are a total of six endurance runs on the programme plus one alternative sport”
“It’s primarily about the boys getting the fitness they need so that we can start with the ball as a whole group. Until then, there are a total of six endurance runs on the program plus an alternative sport, such as tennis or swimming.”says Martin Lassnig.
When the coaching staff and team come together again at the sports park on June 24, they will have four weeks to fine-tune their skills for the challenges ahead. The first competitive game will take place on the last weekend in July, then things will get serious in the first round of the ÖFB Cup. One week later, the championship in the ADMIRAL Bundesliga will begin.
While the players at the traditional Carinthian club, which celebrated its 104th birthday last Saturday, can still rest a little, team manager Sandro Zakany busy putting together the preparation plan. One thing is certain: Austria will be staying “at home”, there are no plans for a camp and the test matches will probably all be played in Klagenfurt and the region.
“There is a change in personnel, the squad will have a different face”
“There is a change in personnel, the squad will have a different look. We want to use the time to find a unit, because the cohesion has particularly distinguished us. That is why it is important to us to present the new team to our fans in Carinthia.”says Managing Director Sport Günther Gorenzel.
