The Constitutional Court ruled that it is lawful for football clubs to be required to contribute to policing costs for high-risk matches, defining them based on potential dangers.
According to the DFL, high-risk matches are classified based on the probability of a dangerous situation occurring, with home clubs having primary responsibility for designations.
Before this ruling, Bremen's law for charging fees to clubs for policing at high-risk events had been contested, but the courts ultimately saw the regulation as valid.
The dispute began when Bremen police invoiced the DFL for policing a high-risk match, leading to a larger issue about the financial responsibility for security at such events.
