Wrabetz remains president: Rapid Vienna is aiming for a championship title by 2029!
Surprising developments are coming at SK Rapid Vienna. Alexander Wrabetz will be re-elected as President until 2029 with an overwhelming majority at the annual general meeting in Hütteldorf next Saturday. In his last election he received 87.7 percent of the vote and this time too there is no opposing candidate. Wrabetz has big plans: his goal for the next four years is to win the championship.
Another notable detail is the club's impressive membership growth. Under his leadership, the number of members increased from 16,700 to over 25,000. This shows that the green and white fan base is not only growing, but is also strongly behind their club. Almost 500,000 stadium visitors this year demonstrate the commitment and passion that fans feel for Rapid.
Economic successes and challenges
The club's economic boom cannot be overlooked either. Sales doubled from 30 million euros to a whopping 60 million euros within just a few years. Despite this positive development, sporting success in the last three years has fallen short of expectations - the desired top 3 in the league was not achieved. Nevertheless, there were positive sporting experiences, such as entry into women's football and international games, which also presented the club on a larger stage.
Wrabetz is optimistic and has full confidence in coach Peter Stöger, even after a phase with five defeats. “The situation in the club is always a snapshot and can change quickly,” he said, making it clear that he is working on the club’s sustainable success. This attitude shows that he sees himself not only as a president, but also as an admonisher.
A club on the way to success
The increase in membership numbers and the increase in sales are signs that SK Rapid Vienna is on the right track. The commitment of the board and the support of the fan base could be crucial for the coming years. It remains to be seen whether the ambitious goals will be achieved in the next four years - but the course is already well set.
With a packed stadium and a more than motivated fan base, we can be excited to see what the future holds for Rapid. One thing is certain: the club is more than just a sports club; it is part of the Viennese way of life. Who knows, perhaps we will soon see SK Rapid Wien's further rise in Austrian football.
