At ZAG, we know that: Success only comes when everyone pulls together. Whether in everyday working life or in sport - sustainable results can only be achieved through team spirit, discipline and individual strength. These values are impressively reflected in gymnastics at TuS Vinnhorst. We spoke to Mika S\u00e4fken, captain, former national gymnast and media interface for the club, about the German Gymnastics League, promoting young talent and the role of Sponsors like ZAG<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gymnastics at TuS Vinnhorst: tradition and success<\/strong>
\u201eGymnastics is an absolutely traditional sport and it's impossible to imagine TuS Vinnhorst without it,\u201c says S\u00e4fken. The club's national gymnastics league department has developed impressively in recent years - from the 3rd league to two German championship titles. Proof that continuity, training and teamwork are bearing fruit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Team performance despite individual sport<\/strong>
Although gymnastics is often perceived as an individual sport, S\u00e4fken emphasises the central importance of the team: \u201eIt's not just about the one minute on the apparatus in competition. Behind it are years of training, coaching, physiotherapy, mental support, supporters and training colleagues. If you are a good team player in this environment, you can reap huge benefits.\u201c<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Values that have an impact beyond the hall<\/strong>
Gymnastics conveys values such as structure, discipline, character and the desire to always give your all. \u201eThese values can be transferred perfectly to other areas of life - be it at work or in the private sphere,\u201c explains S\u00e4fken.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Young talent as the key to the future<\/strong>
Young talent is particularly important to TuS. Children as young as four or five are regularly in the hall. S\u00e4fken emphasises: \u201eIt is precisely at this stage that the foundations are laid for a performance-oriented career later on. This requires committed coaches and strong support.\u201c<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ZAG as a reliable partner<\/strong>
ZAG's support is essential for the sport of gymnastics: \u201eGymnastics doesn't thrive on huge media coverage like football, but it conveys clear and strong values. This is exactly where ZAG comes in and supports the athletes and the entire gymnastics community.\u201c<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Parallels to the world of work<\/strong>
\u201eIn gymnastics, there are six pieces of equipment - in the world of work, there are different skills,\u201c says S\u00e4fken. Success comes to those who recognise, promote and make targeted use of individual strengths. This is the only way for teams - whether in sport or at work - to achieve top performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Looking ahead<\/strong>
Gymnastics at TuS Vinnhorst is currently undergoing an exciting transformation. The work with young talent is having an impact: the second national league team consists mainly of the club's own athletes, who are given the chance to prove themselves directly at national league level. Some have already made it all the way to the 1st Bundesliga - proof of the club's sustainable structure and future-orientated concept.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are delighted to support not only handball, but also gymnastics at TuS Vinnhorst as a ZAG sponsor, thus helping to ensure that the club remains a beacon for team spirit, discipline and the sustainable promotion of young talent. We wish all athletes every success!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
