Sports installation inaugurated in Uedesheim, aiming to prompt increased athletic participation amongst the Neuse community
In the city of Neuss, the pursuit of promoting sports and exercise continues, with the introduction of a new outdoor calisthenics facility at SV Uedesheim. This development is part of a larger initiative, as one of 150 municipalities to receive a sports box through funding from the "REStart" program.
The sports box in Neuss is funded by the German Olympic Sports Confederation and the Federal Ministry of the Interior. SV Uedesheim will oversee the management of the facility, ensuring its smooth operation and maintenance.
The calisthenics facility offers a modern outdoor training area, complementing other sports offerings at the club. It is equipped with multiple outdoor fitness stations, including pull-up bars, parallel bars, dip bars, monkey bars, push-up stations, leg raise stations, and other equipment for body weight training. All equipment is made from durable materials suitable for outdoor use, ensuring safety and longevity.
The facility is managed and maintained by SV Uedesheim’s sports club staff, supported by volunteers from the local community. Regular training sessions and workshops are organised to help members and visitors learn and improve their calisthenics skills. Safety inspections and equipment maintenance are scheduled periodically to ensure the facility remains in good condition.
SV Uedesheim is exploring the possibility of expanding its calisthenics facilities to other nearby parks and sports grounds in Neuss, aiming to promote outdoor fitness widely. Plans include assessing community interest and collaborating with local authorities to identify suitable public spaces for additional installations. Future sites would likely follow the model of user-friendly, low-maintenance outdoor calisthenics gyms accessible to all age groups.
Registration for using the sports box is done via the "Sportbox app and move" app, allowing users to book a time slot and open and close the sports box using their smartphone.
The city of Neuss, through its sports department, is reviewing the sports area of the Südpark leisure facility as a potential location for another sports box based on the current experiences in Uedesheim.
