Kickoff of the UEFA Champions League for Bayern Munich

The THW Landesverband Bayern, a regional branch of the THW in Bavaria, has announced its extensive deployment during the UEFA European Football Championship 2024, which will take place in Munich from June 14 to July 14, 2024.

The THW, a federally funded deployment organization with around 88,000 volunteers nationwide, will provide a wide range of competencies, including specialists, technology, and experience, to ensure the safety and smooth running of the tournament.

Six matches will be held in Munich, with 20 local units from North and South Bavaria participating. The THW's commitment includes technical and logistical tasks, such as logistics, catering, and specialist advice.

Carrier teams consisting of four people will be set up in the Munich football arena for rapid response to injuries in steep stands. Up to 200 THW personnel will be deployed at peak times, and up to 70 ambulance vehicles with medical personnel are on standby at a deployment area set up by the THW.

The THW Bayern will primarily focus on tasks in Munich, ensuring the city is well-prepared for the influx of spectators. The organization supporting the UEFA European Championship in areas such as logistics, catering, and special consulting is not explicitly named in the provided search results.

The THW's work is crucial for the successful organisation of major events like the UEFA European Football Championship 2024. For more information about the THW's commitment at home and abroad, visit www.jetzt.thw.de.

It's worth noting that the THW is in demand worldwide for civil protection tasks, including bilateral aid, the EU's civil protection mechanism, and UN organizations.

In addition, four THW specialist advisors from Bavaria and eleven members of the Virtual Operations Support Team (VOST) will support the International Police Coordination Center (IPCC) in North Rhine-Westphalia during the championship on a 24/7 basis. The VOST observes the situation on the internet and social media and prepares this information for deployment planning.

We look forward to the exciting football matches ahead and the crucial role the THW Bayern will play in ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience for all spectators.
