THE TEAM INTRODUCES ITSELF
Current Season
The U19 team of the Foals is competing once again in the A-Junioren Bundesliga West for the 2023/24 season. In this top German league for their age group, Borussia faces off against youth teams from top German clubs in the west.
After a challenging start with four losses in the first seven games, the team coached by Oliver Kirch remained unbeaten for the entire remainder of the first half of the season.
With four games remaining, as of April 22, 2024, the team is currently in fourth place and thus heading towards a very good final position. The team boasts the second-best offense in the league with 57 goals and the fourth-best defense with 26 goals conceded.
Coaching Staff
Oliver Kirch took over as coach of Borussia’s U19 team before the current season. For the 41-year-old, it marks a return to the Lower Rhine region. He previously played for the Foals from 2003 to 2007. “For me, it is a great opportunity to gain further experience at a club like Borussia Mönchengladbach in the U19 Bundesliga West,” he said. Alongside Kirch, the coaching team is completed by assistant coaches Maximilian Nadidai and Alessandro Riedle, as well as goalkeeping coach Marcin Skowronek.
