ÖFB prepares for European Championship qualifiers in Saalfelden

The Austrian national football team will be visiting Saalfelden Leogang from 1 September to 5 September.

The ÖFB stayed at the Hotel Gut Brandlhof for a total of five days and is now being looked after by the team led by the hotelier family Alexander Strobl and Birgit Maier. The Austrian national team is preparing intensively for the upcoming matches on the perfectly prepared football pitches in the region. The European Championship qualifier against Latvia takes place in Salzburg on Friday and three days later in Warsaw against league leaders Poland.

 

Statements:

Marco Pointner, Managing Director of Saalfelden Leogang Touristik: "Saalfelden Leogang has now made a name for itself beyond the borders as a destination for football training camps. The basic prerequisite is that, in addition to a perfect infrastructure, you also offer a great hotel industry and here we can score with high quality in Saalfelden Leogang."

 

Hannes Empl, Managing Director of SLFC Soccer GmbH: "The many years of very successful collaboration and exclusive partnership with Hotel Gut Brandlhof show that we have created a product that even attracts the local national team back to Salzburger Land after six years. We are delighted about this and wish the team all the best for the upcoming qualifying matches."


Thomas Baliamis, Director Hotel Gut Brandlhof: "We are proud to welcome a national team, and above all "our" national team, to the Brandlhof after such a short time. This is a confirmation for our hotel, our departments and our greenkeepers. It's great to see how the football project is now bearing fruit and we look forward to what's to come."
