Future of sports
The city of Minden is the cultural, administrative and economic centre of the county Minden-Luebecke. 26.600 residents take exercise in 136 sports clubs. The city council is organising a scenario project to think about sport
development in Minden. The sport development focusses on the academical change of structure. Philipp Koch (Division manager) said that 18 of 20 schools in Minden are full-time schools. The result is that gymnasiums are occupied till late afternoon and that students have no time for organised sport. The question is “Are they still sports clubs in 2020?”.

The project started to think about uncertainties and early warning processes. It is organised by a core team, a scenario team and an environmental team. At first environmental scenarios are described. In the following options for actions are developed. Finally both are combined.
