The SCP07 and the BENTELER Group will continue their partnership in the 2026/2027 season. As an official cooperation partner, BENTELER continues to be involved in the SCP07 environment and becomes a co-partner of the umbrella brand “Herzblut verbindet” (Passion connects). The association combines its social commitment. The cooperation strengthens the company's close ties to the region.

In addition, the cooperation includes a family day at a second league home match – including a stadium tour and entrance escort for children of BENTELER employees – as well as autograph sessions by the professionals as part of the BENTELER events and exclusive stadium tours – including for BENTELER business partners.
