The tournament is played on a total of 5 small pitches at the Weiherstadion in Hechingen. In addition to the grass pitch, the artificial turf pitch is available.
The main tournament always takes place on Saturdays. On Sunday, there is a tournament-independent performance comparison with almost the same participants as the day before. The starting field for the performance comparison is filled with selected regional representatives from the districts of Zollernalb, Tübingen and Reutlingen.
At the main tournament, the preliminary round is followed by the division of the teams into the Champions League, Europa League and Conference League. After this group phase, the rankings are played out and the tournament winner is determined.
In the performance comparison, the teams are divided into independent groups and play in a round-robin format. There is no “performance comparison winner” on this day.

HOSTING CLUB
FV HECHINGEN FRIEDRICHSTRASSE E.V.
The football club FV Hechingen Friedrichstrasse e.V. was founded in 1930. At that time, Friedrichstrasse was a separate small district of what is now Zollerstadt. It stretched from the Weiherstadion towards Bodelshausen and Stein.
Today, the former district is integrated into the city of Hechingen and no longer exists as such. Only the club has survived the times.
FV Hechingen Friedrichstrasse cooperates with FC Hechingen in youth work in Hechingen. The club also has a senior team that trains regularly and takes part in tournaments. The traditional club is firmly integrated into Hechingen’s city life through the organization of tournaments and other events.
The flagship of the traditional Hechingen club is certainly the Bentley Hohenzollern Cup.
IT’S REALLY AN IMPRESSIVE SETTING, GREAT FACILITIES, MANY FAMOUS TEAMS AND GREAT FOOTBALLERS.
The patrons
The patrons of the Bentley Hohenzollern Cup are Prince Georg Friedrich of Prussia and Philipp Hahn. Since 1994, Prince Georg Friedrich of Prussia has been the head of the House of Hohenzollern, whose ancestral seat is Hohenzollern Castle in Hechingen. Philipp Hahn has been mayor of Hechingen since 2018.
