Rot-Weiss Essen: Brilliant preparation for the new 2025/26 season!

On July 12, 2025, Rot-Weiss Essen will be busy putting its plans for the coming 2025/26 season into action. After a successful conclusion to last season, in which the team won the Lower Rhine Cup with a 2-1 win against MSV Duisburg, the preparation plan is now in full swing. The club has not only set up a tight program, but is also showing its first successes in test matches.

The highlights of summer preparation so far include an impressive 10-0 win against VfB Bottrop on June 28th. The following game against VfB Frohnhausen, which took place on July 1st, also ended with a clear 8-1 for RWE. The team has clearly shown that it is well positioned both in attack and defense. But there was also a narrow 3-2 defeat against Hibernian FC, which may have given the players valuable experience.

Intensive preparation and training camp

For the Red and Whites, the summer months are not only characterized by test matches, but also by intensive training sessions. The public training start took place on June 25th at 3:30 p.m. in the stadium on Hafenstrasse. After today's home game against Fortuna Cologne, which the Essen team won 5-0, a training camp is scheduled for July 14th to 18th in Wesendorf/Lower Saxony. Here the team will continue to prepare for their upcoming challenges.

RWE has already produced a few goalscorers in the first test matches. In particular, players like Safi, who scored four times, and Martinovic, who also scored twice, were in form. The coaching history regularly diversifies its players, which is reflected in the different lineups during games. For example, they started against VfB Frohnhausen in a 4-2-3-1 system.

Get ready for the new season

The start of the season is already around the corner. The first game of the 3rd league will be against TSV 1860 Munich on August 1st at 7 p.m. Two more exciting encounters await: On August 8th, the team will play away at TSV Havelse, followed by a DFB Cup game against Borussia Dortmund on August 18th. Given Rot-Weiss Essen's performance so far, expectations are high and fans can look forward to an exciting season.

Whether in the test matches or in training, the euphoria in the club is palpable. All of these circumstances promise that Rot-Weiss Essen wants to get off to a fast start in the new season. It remains to be seen how the team will develop in the coming weeks, but one thing is certain: the loyalty and support of the fans will help the players a lot during this intense time.
