Who we are

For many years, Freiraum was the official hospitality partner of Borussia Mönchengladbach.

During Borussia's UEFA Champions League campaigns, international visiting teams stayed with us — first-hand experience in hosting elite soccer groups: accommodation, nutrition, privacy, logistics and recovery. Beyond 90 focuses that experience into a dedicated Germany program for U.S. youth clubs.
