Tennis Borussia Berlin

What Tennis Borussia Berlin does

Tennis Borussia Berlin (TeBe) is a registered nonprofit football association (e.V.) founded on April 9, 1902 in Berlin, currently competing in the Oberliga, the fifth tier of the German football pyramid. The club operates from the Mommsenstadion in Berlin-Charlottenburg and maintains multiple competitive and recreational squads including the men's first team, Männer Ü50 seniors, Junioren youth teams, and the Hans-Rosenthal-Elf. It is governed by a member-elected board led by Chairman Ariel Gala, with Puria Ahmadian as deputy chairman and Uli Krug as board member.

The club's commercial product surface comprises five revenue streams: (1) ticketing — single match tickets, season tickets (Kontingentkarten), and day passes (Dauerkarten) for home matches; (2) an online fan shop shipping personalized merchandise domestically and internationally; (3) recurring membership fees with voting rights at the general assembly; (4) sponsorships with Craft Sportswear, Trinity Music GmbH, and AG13; and (5) a digitized donation channel processed via Twingle GmbH. Technology integrations are limited to third-party widgets (fussball.de, fupa.net) for match data display, with no proprietary platform or AI capabilities.

TeBe differentiates through brand heritage (the only Berlin club to have played in the 1. Bundesliga in 1974-75) and a progressive cultural identity, particularly its longstanding inclusion of LGBTQ+ fans and the "Fußballfans gegen Homophobie" program. Youth development is a stated strategic priority, formalized through trial training, school partnerships, and holiday camps under a recently appointed Jugendleiter. Distribution is primarily direct-to-consumer via stadium box office, online shop, and club website, with a community-led go-to-motion emphasizing fan engagement, social media presence (Facebook, Instagram, Bluesky, YouTube), and member acquisition through dedicated enrollment pages.

• Altona 93: Hamburg-based traditional football club scheduled for a TeBe test match in July 2026. Comparable lower-tier club with similar historical pedigree, traditional fan culture, and community-supported structure.

Broad incumbents
