Das Thema Altersdiskriminierung beschäftigt den DFB – nicht nur wegen des Rechtsstreits mit Ex-Schiedsrichter Manuel Gräfe (51), der seine Bundesliga-Karriere 2021 wegen der Altersgrenze von 47 Jahren beenden musste und auf Schadensersatz in Höhe von 830 000 Euro klagt. Das Landgericht (LG) Frankfurt hat die damals beim DFB gängige Regelung bereits für nicht rechtmäßig erklärt und Gräfe 48 500 Euro Entschädigung zugesprochen. Die reichen dem Berliner nicht, er ging in Berufung vor dem OLG.
Mit Blick auf den DFB-Bundestag im November und der als sicher geltenden Wiederwahl von Präsident Bernd Neuendorf (63) überprüft der DFB nun seine Satzung auf mögliche Verstöße gegen das Allgemeine Gleichbehandlungsgesetz (AGG), um neue Diskriminierungs-Klagen auszuschließen. Dafür wurde extra eine Satzungskommission aus Rechtsexperten von DFB und DFL gebildet. Die Bundesliga ist mit im Boot, weil ihre DFL-Präsidiumsmitglieder automatisch auch Posten im DFB-Präsidium und -Vorstand übernehmen.
SO verkündet er seinen Rücktritt!: Müllers skuriles Video-Statement
Geprüft wird, ob eine Geschlechtsdiskriminierung vorliegen könnte, weil für bestimmte Positionen entweder nur Frauen oder nur Männer vorgesehen sind. Und ob die Altersgrenze von 70 Jahren eine Altersdiskriminierung darstellen könnte.
In der DFB-Satzung unter Paragraf 19, Punkt 8 heißt es: „Die Wahl, Neuwahl, Bestätigung oder Berufung für ein Amt im Präsidium, im Vorstand, in den Rechtsorganen, im Prüfungsausschuss oder in den Ausschüssen ist nur bis zur Vollendung des siebzigsten Lebensjahres möglich.“ Aus diesem Grund scheidet Manfred Schnieders (70), der als Präsident des Westfalen-Verbandes (FLVW) im DFB-Vorstand sitzt, im November aus.
Die Satzungskommission prüft rechtlich und inhaltlich, ob die Altersgrenze erforderlich ist oder einen Verstoß gegen das AGG darstellt.
Die wahrscheinliche, weil rechtssichere Lösung: eine Amtszeitbeschränkung von zwei (insgesamt acht Jahre) oder drei Wahlperioden (zwölf Jahre). Damit würde auch eine Forderung der Uefa erfüllt werden: Im „Governance Framework“ für die 55 Mitgliedsverbände wird unter Punkt 1.6. eine Amtszeitbeschränkung in der Verbandsführung von maximal zwölf Jahren verlangt.
[–>Amtszeitbeschränkungen gibt es u. a. schon bei der Fifa, Uefa und beim Internationalen Olympischen Komitee (IOC). Nötig wäre ein Antrag auf Satzungsänderung, über den die zuletzt 262 Delegierten auf dem Bundestag abstimmen.

MLB acknowledges that increased drag on baseballs resulting in fly balls traveling 4 feet less this year
Major League Baseball is acknowledging that there has been more drag on the baseballs used in games this season, resulting in long fly balls traveling four feet less than they did last year.The confirmation from MLB responded to a report by The Athletic, which reviewed fly ball and drag information available to the public. The review found that there has been more drag on the ball in 2025 than in any of the previous nine seasons during which MLB has tracked this data.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementThose results would appear to indicate that the ball used this season is different. Yet no cause for the increase in drag has been determined. MLB says no intentional changes have been made to the baseballs, which are constructed by Rawlings at a factory in Costa Rica. (MLB purchased Rawlings in 2018.)“We are aware of an increase in […]

Alex Bagé elege Alysson o melhor jogador do Grêmio e dispara contra dois atacantes: “Amuzu e Pavón são atrasos”
Alysson, atacante do Grêmio (LUCAS UEBEL/GREMIO FBPA) Alex Bagé analisou o confronto entre Grêmio e Corinthians na Arena, pela 12ª rodada do Brasileirão Série A. Braithwaite marcou primeiro para o Tricolor Gaúcho, mas Breno Bidon deixou tudo igual ainda no primeiro tempo nesta quinta-feira (12). O resultado manteve o tabu corintiano de 13 partidas sem perder para o Imortal. Na edição de hoje (13) do “Debate Raiz”, Alex Bagé não economizou elogios para Alysson. O jovem ponta de 19 anos foi o autor da jogada que resultou no gol do centroavante dinamarquês. “Esse menino, toda vez que ele toca na bola, ele mostra cara. Tem que dar mais oportunidade. O Alysson hoje é o melhor jogador do Grêmio. Hoje ele tem que ser titular. Tudo que acontece de bom no Grêmio acontece passando pelos pés do Alysson”, analisou o jornalista […]
Caitlin Clark to make her return to Fever lineup vs. Liberty after missing five games with quad strain
Getty Images Caitlin Clark will make her return to the court this Saturday, when the Indiana Fever host the New York Liberty at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, the team announced Friday. Clark was initially expected to miss four games after suffering a quad strain during the 90-88 loss to the Liberty on May 24, but instead missed five contests. She said rushing back wouldn't be "worth it," but now feels good enough to return to the lineup. Clark was averaging 19 points, 6 rebounds and 9.3 assists per game before the quad strain injury. She actually hadn't missed a game since high school, and her inactive status on May 28 vs. the Washington Mystics snapped a streak of 185 consecutive games played. With Caitlin Clark and Tyrese Haliburton leading Fever and Pacers, Indy has become center of basketball world Jack Maloney The 4-5 Fever are 2-3 […]
