"We've had a very impressive season in the women's Bundesliga and that is obviously also due to the work of the coaching staff. We are happy to be able to go forward with these coaches in future," said Thomas Eichin, director of the Performance Centre.

We have a great and committed team with young players and I’m excited to see their potential," said Dünker. "We have developed women's football well here at the club and we believe in our targets.
