Mark Zimmermann's coaching career has spanned beyond Halle, as he previously worked with the U21 team of 1. FC Cologne in the Bundesliga. The regional league in Germany, where Hallescher FC currently plays, is quite different from the top-tier league in Cologne. The neighboring states of Saxony and Saxony-Anhalt have produced several notable soccer teams, including Halle FC and the legendary Carl Zeiss Jena from Thuringia. Transfers between regional teams and larger clubs are common, and Zimmermann's experience with both increases his value to Halle's third division team.
