For Bundesliga home matches, he welcomes the visiting team to the big stadium, the PreZero Arena in Sinsheim, and announces the interim results of other matches. His true domicile, however, is the booth of another stadium: the Dietmar-Hopp-Stadion in Hoffenheim\u2014the place, where everything began and where the First Women\u2019s and the men\u2019s junior sections continue to stage their matches even to this day. Today, the Bundesliga Women play against the SC Sand. Horst sits in his booth once or twice per week, sometimes even three times. Before he began to do the announcements also for the ladies\u2019 matches, he asked his own lady\u2019s permission, because \u201cI already spend my weekends in the stadium.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Julian-Beekmann-Fotografie-0719.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-8875 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Julian-Beekmann-Fotografie-0719.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Julian-Beekmann-Fotografie-0719.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Julian-Beekmann-Fotografie-0719-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Julian-Beekmann-Fotografie-0719-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Julian-Beekmann-Fotografie-0719-1024x683.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Dietmar-Hopp-Stadion sits enthroned at the slope of a hill above the Sinsheim part of town Hoffenheim with its almost 3300 residents. The floodlight masts are well visible form the lower village. The stadium holds some 6350 fans\u2014almost twice as many as there are local Hoffenheim inhabitants. The atmosphere is professional and informal at the same time. Be it on the little standing-room stand or at the seating area: The spectator is always close to the event on the natural-grass pitch, always close to the scene.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The same is true for Horst. It was his birthday recently and this Sunday colleagues keep calling in, congratulating and hugging him. Everybody here knows him. The announcer recalls young talents such as Sebastian Rudy, today a national player. \u201cHe used to drop in regularly, chat with me and send his regards to somebody else.\u201d And this is exactly what Horst likes: There are so many juniors that started in Hoffenheim and made a career. And even the \u2018Emperor\u2019 Franz Beckenbauer used to be in this little room in the stadium for several times when the Hoffenheim team played against one of the Bayern M\u00fcnchen teams. There was an incident once, Horst says: one day the photocopier packed up during preparation\u2014he was tight for time and asked the former world champion to announce the line-up for him. \u201cAnd he did it. He is an uncomplicated guy indeed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Julian-Beekmann-Fotografie-0719-4.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-8878 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Julian-Beekmann-Fotografie-0719-4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Julian-Beekmann-Fotografie-0719-4.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Julian-Beekmann-Fotografie-0719-4-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Julian-Beekmann-Fotografie-0719-4-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Julian-Beekmann-Fotografie-0719-4-1024x683.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>How many matches he witnessed and presented from his booth? Horst never counted them. However, he witnessed quite a bit of sports history over the course of his announcements about what was going on at the pitch: the rise of a Kraichgau village club from the district league to the top German\u00a0premier league. If he would have believed this to happen, back in the times when the TSG was just another low-class club in Germany? Horst shakes his head: \u201cIf somebody told me that, I\u2019d have answered: dream on!\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;We used to do the announcements through the megaphone in these days.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Horst was only six, when he began to play football for the local club back in the 50s and he always remained loyal to the TSG afterwards. He still carries his membership card with him. At the beginning of the 80s, he was the goalkeeper for the Second team. He held office as vice president later. In 1990, he began to lend the club his voice. \u201cWe used to do the announcements through the megaphone in these days.\u201d Horst doesn\u2019t take himself too seriously: It was rather a stopgap solution that he was assigned this post\u2014\u201cthey said, in terms of voice, why shouldn\u2019t he be doing it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Julian-Beekmann-Fotografie-0719-8.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-8882 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Julian-Beekmann-Fotografie-0719-8.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Julian-Beekmann-Fotografie-0719-8.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Julian-Beekmann-Fotografie-0719-8-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Julian-Beekmann-Fotografie-0719-8-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Julian-Beekmann-Fotografie-0719-8-1024x683.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>It was a time of radical change. In 1989, Hoffenheim had just been relegated to the district league A\u2014the mood was down. Dietmar Hopp, one of the founders of SAP, who had also played for the TSG club in his youth, decided to become the patron of the club. From then on, things were looking up continuously. Horst remembers one match in particular\u2014that from December 2003: the then Regionalliga (fourth-tier) team of Hoffenheim hosted the last-sixteen match of the DFB Cup and welcomed the Bayer Leverkusen team. The Hopp stadium was bulging at the seams. Horst is a polite person, no candidate for arrogant victory poses. But while he tells this story from his memory, he puts his professional impartiality aside for a moment: \u201cWe kicked them out of the stadium.\u201d Only in sporting terms, of course. The host team won the match by 3 to 2. And they started to sense that things could be looking up even more in the future. It goes without saying that Horst was at the microphone on May 18, 2008 as well, the day that Hoffenheim scored the home win against Greuther F\u00fcrth and thus sealed its promotion to the First Bundesliga.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Julian-Beekmann-Fotografie-0719-14.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-8888 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Julian-Beekmann-Fotografie-0719-14.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Julian-Beekmann-Fotografie-0719-14.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Julian-Beekmann-Fotografie-0719-14-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Julian-Beekmann-Fotografie-0719-14-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Julian-Beekmann-Fotografie-0719-14-1024x683.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Today, Hoffenheim is one of three TSG locations. Apart from the Hopp stadium, there is the Centre of Excellence for the U17 and U19 teams. The stadium was completed in 1999, year of the club\u2019s hundredth anniversary. In 2008 it was already too small to stage the Bundesliga scene. However, the ranks fill up with fans of all ages even on this windy Sunday afternoon\u2014because the crowd is always offered excellent competitive sport in Hoffenheim. In the previous season, the U19 team played in the pan-European Youth League: the Real Madrid, Olympique Lyon and Schachtar Donezk junior teams showed up in the Hopp stadium.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Julian-Beekmann-Fotografie-0719-22-Kopie.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-8918 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Julian-Beekmann-Fotografie-0719-22-Kopie.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Julian-Beekmann-Fotografie-0719-22-Kopie.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Julian-Beekmann-Fotografie-0719-22-Kopie-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Julian-Beekmann-Fotografie-0719-22-Kopie-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>For Horst, it is especially the young players, who are dear to his heart. It does tend to happen, that he finds a game annoying and that he uses swear words inside his booth, says the 70-year old\u2014but only when the mic is switched off, of course. Today, there is no reason for a swear word: The Hoffenheim women\u2019s team are beating SC Sand by 1 to 0. They too are one of these success stories. They just don\u2019t hog the limelight as much as the men. \u201cWomen\u2019s football has developed significantly over the past few years,\u201d says Horst. The TSG team has managed to compete their way up into the women\u2019s Bundesliga right into the top group.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Julian-Beekmann-Fotografie-0719-7.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-8881 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Julian-Beekmann-Fotografie-0719-7.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"1200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Julian-Beekmann-Fotografie-0719-7.jpg 800w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Julian-Beekmann-Fotografie-0719-7-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Julian-Beekmann-Fotografie-0719-7-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Julian-Beekmann-Fotografie-0719-7-683x1024.jpg 683w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Football is a family matter for Horst.
