Entertainment and activities are also provided, with offers such as DSV buses, a nail block and table football.

The club has an active sports community that has also planned events such as a skiing holiday in Kitzbühel. The journey to the Jugendhotel Noichl will take place from February 7th to 14th, 2025, followed by ski trips and a varied evening program.

What is helpful for the community, as the club planner explains, is that clubs offer members scope for creativity and co-determination, which promotes enthusiasm for the organization and, thanks to the voluntary work of officials, also enables social bonds and shared successes within the community.
