Heidenheim starts in the 2026/27 season in the newly created Bundesliga Talent Series. The 1. FC Heidenheim 1846 is participating in the additional U21 competition of the German Football League (DFL).
What is the Bundesliga Talent Series?
The Bundesliga Talent Series is intended to give young players in the transition area more playing time at a high level. The competition will be held in two separate half-series.
Why is participation important for Heidenheim?
Participation in the Bundesliga Talent Series is another building block in the development of the club's own youth sector. Heidenheim can flexibly draw on existing players in the transition area.
