I do honorary work for the Southwest
Football Federation (SWFV). We meet every so often and I proposed that we meet in the 1.FCK Museum one time,
That meeting occurred in January 2013. The result was this article in the SWFV Magazine. (Source: SWFV Magazin, Ausgabe 1/2013, Pgs. 14-15)
In March 2013 I was featured in the stadium
magazine. (Source: In Teufels Namen, Ausgabe

I showed up in the stadium magazine again
two weeks later. I attended a Rolling Devils wheelchair basketball game, and along with ex-1.FCK President, Norbert
Thines, and Ralf Siebert, Initiative Leidenschaft, we accepted some super fine items for our Museum. (Source: In Teufels Namen, Ausgabe 12, 17. März 2013, Pg.

For the away game against Energie Cottbus
on 29. Apr 2013, the TV sport channel, Sport 1, did a spot on our museum. I was interviewed and turn up in the online
report for their "Fan Botschafter". The TV appearance was also reported in the stadium magazine. (Source: In Teufels Namen, Ausgabe 15, 5. Mai 2013, Pg. 57)

In Dec 2013 the draw for the World Cup 2014
in Brazil resulted in the USA being placed in a group with German. Bundesliga.de was looking to do a story on Americans
& 1.FCK and contacted 1.FCK for help. The press department passed them on to me and the result was an interview
by Tobias Schaechter that appeared on the Bundesliga.de website on 26. Dec 2013. You can see the full article here.
On March 11th, 2014, I gave a presentation
for the Verein "Pfälzische Sportgeschichte e.V." at the Sportbund Pfalz, titled "Die Vereinsgeschichte
- ein spannendes Forschungsgebiet". It was an historical review of the ties between several Kaiserslauterer Sport
Clubs (TSG, 1.FCK, VfR) and a look at when TSG first played soccer.
Summer 2014: An exhibition of old sport
badges and yearbooks from Rolf Conrad and I were displayed in the Sportbund Pfalz.
