Soccer fever
DETTINGEN/RUNKEL. The 2010 World
Cup may have been over, but there was no let-up
in the soccer fever at ElringKlinger. On 23 July,
teams from the divisions of Specialty Gaskets (2S)
and Elastomer Technology/Modules (2E) clashed
at the ground of TSV Dettingen. Last year it
was 2E that lifted the cup, but this time it was
the turn of 2S to triumph in a 4:3 victory.
Poetic justice! The weather may not have played along, but the players and
fans entered into the spirit of the occasion. After all, refreshments were
again provided by the ElringKlinger Management Board. Thanks to everyone
for a successful event – and we look forward to the next festival of
soccer. (Reiner Drews)
Brazilian team
at the shooting cup
The second place trophy was sent
on to the successful shooters of
ElringKlinger do brasil, who were
already on the flight home when
the awards ceremony took place.

DETTINGEN/PIRACICABA. A total of
23 teams, each comprising three shooters,
took part in the traditional club and company
shooting competition at the Dettingen
gun club early in October 2010. ElringKlinger
was represented by one women’s team and
two men’s teams. Our subsidiary ElringKlinger
do Brasil Ltda. also entered a team for the
first time – the three Brazilian staff members
were at our Dettingen facility for training
purposes. The day of competition began with
5 to 10 practice shots before the entrants
fired off ten scoring shots.
Thanks to steady hands and accurate
gunmanship, our riflemen secured the top three places in their part of the
competition: top spot went to Dieter Coconcelli, Alexander Stoll and
Manfred Rupp; in second place was the ElringKlinger team from Brazil (see
photo); and following them in third were Daniel Schöll, Karl Götz and
Bernhard Eberle.
The results of our three riflewomen could not be counted towards
the team competition because one of them was unable to take part due to
ill health. The outcome of the individual competition was thus all the
more satisfying: stefanie Auer came first with 95 of a possible 100 rings,
while Andrea Warong secured third place with 92 rings. (Peter Essig)

Handball
Third-place finish at the
Owen amateur tournament
DETTINGEN. Keeping fit, meeting
people and having fun – that’s what company
sport is all about. ElringKlinger’s handball
players were busy again in 2010, entering two
teams for the amateur tournament in Owen,
amongst other events. Team 2 made it as far
as the last sixteen; team 1 reached the semi-
final, going out on penalties at the end of
extra time. However, team 1 comfortably won
their play-off match, thus finishing in a re -
spect able third place out of 24 participating
teams. (Olcay Zeybek)
Amateur shooting
in Hengen
DETTINGEN. Ten shots fired from
50 metres with a small-bore rifle: that was
the task facing the ElringKlinger riflemen
at the amateur shooting competition held
at the Hengen gun club in October 2010.
Defending their title, the ElringKlinger
Herren 1 team achieved a commendable
second place this time around. The individual
results were also impressive: Daniel
Schöll (95 rings) secured fifth spot, Karl
Götz (95 rings) took sixth place and Bernhard
Eberle (94 rings) finished seventh.
