history

Until 1978: the beginning

Bernd Schröder, trainer 1971–1992 and 1997–2016

The BSG Turbine Potsdam was founded in 1955 within the Turbine sports association . Carrier operating the Sports Association was VEB energy supply. The male footballers played with only moderate success at the local level. During the company 's New Year's Eve party in 1970, employees talked about the poor performance of the team. Some employees also criticized the team. However, their opinion was rejected by the male colleagues. When it comes to football, women have to remain silent, so the tenor .

A few days later there was an anonymously written note on the company's wall newspaper, the author of which has not yet been identified.

“Found a women's soccer team. Please report. March 3, 1971. 6 pm in the Walter Junker clubhouse . "

- BSG Turbine Potsdam, section football

At the said meeting on March 3, 1971, the women's football section was founded. It was more by chance that Bernd Schröder became the team's coach. Actually, he just wanted something to eat that evening. In an interview on the 40th anniversary of the club, Schröder stated that he no longer knows why he took over as coach. The first training session was on the agenda the very next day. On May 25, 1971, the team played their first game at BSG Empor Tangermünde , which was won 3-0. After another victory at BSG Stahl Hennigsdorf , the first home game took place on June 12, 1971. Again it was against Tangermünde, and the "Turbines" won with 5: 1. At the end of the year there was the first defeat in the 13th game at 1: 2 in Halberstadt.

A year later, a district championship was played for the first time, which Turbine was able to decide for itself. Schröder was always looking for talented players. In doing so, he concentrated not only on players from other clubs, but also on athletes who were sorted out by the management teams for lack of perspective or for other reasons. Since Schröder now held a senior position within the VEB, he was able to find jobs and apartments for the players without much effort. However, money was scarce at the time. Some of the players had to get the jerseys themselves and sew the club emblems on by hand. So it happened that the Turbine coat of arms was sometimes on the left, sometimes in the middle or on the right.

In 1979 a so-called GDR best determination was played out in women's football for the first time . The BSG Turbine went into the qualifying games as favorites, but missed the final tournament. The second edition of the competition also took place without the Potsdam team, and Schröder came under increasing pressure. The best determination in 1981 was to take place in Potsdam. The trainer meticulously designed the preparation with five training units per week and a training camp on the Baltic Sea . The team qualified for the final tournament with great difficulty.

Unbeaten and with only one goal conceded, Turbine finished the tournament as the winner. There was a bonus of 50 marks per player , and Schröder was named an “ activist of socialist work ”. Also in 1982 and 1983 the team won the best determination. Sabine Seidel became the first "star" of GDR women's football. While there were only a few equal opponents in the GDR, more and more foreign clubs became aware of the Potsdam’s successes. Invitations to tournaments in the Netherlands and Italy were intercepted, however, because the sports officials forbade the "amateur athletes" to travel to capitalist countries abroad.

Schröder sneaked his team's first trip abroad with a ruse . He asked the Hungarian organizer to simply change the list of participants on the invitation. Instead of the USC Landhaus Wien and Dinamo Zagreb , Levski Sofia and Sparta Prague were now on the list. The trick worked and the turbine was allowed to run. However, the team was accompanied by a party official. He saw through the game, and Schröder was banned internationally for a year after his return. After the ban had expired, the club received an invitation from Poland . This time Schröder personally forged the list of participants in order to obtain a travel permit. Arrived in Breslau , there was a scandal when the party official who had traveled with him asked the hosts to send the teams from Western Europe back home. It was agreed that Turbine would play a friendly against the hosts. Schröder was allowed to remain a coach after his return, but the team was prohibited from traveling abroad until further notice.

At the national level, the "Turbines" took second place for the first time in 1984 after three titles in a row. The team was tied on points and goals with the BSG Motor Hall and the BSG Rotation Schlema . Halle became champions with two more goals scored. In 1985 there was a mode change. Instead of a final round with five teams, the 15 district champion now played in four groups from the semi-finalists, who then in the knockout system playing off the finalists. On the way to the final, Turbine won all games and met BSG Wismut Karl-Marx-Stadt in the final . After goals from Seidel and Brüdgam, the fourth GDR championship was celebrated. A year later, the team repeated the feat of winning all games of the best determination. In the final, Schröder's team beat BSG Motor Halle 4-1. In 1987 Turbine missed the final as second in the group behind Karl-Marx-Stadt, which took place for the first time since 1980 without Potsdam.

Match dates of the championship finals 1985 , 1986

In the summer of 1987 the mode was changed again. The German Football Association introduced a two-pronged league. The two season winners then determined the GDR champions in the two legs. Turbine finished the season in the northern relay without losing points and faced the BSG Rotation Schlema in the final. The first leg in Schlema was lost 3-0. In the second leg on their own pitch, the “Turbines” led 2-0 at halftime and there was hope again. Shortly after the restart, Guderian scored the next goal for the Saxons. Sabine Seidel increased again to 3: 1, but that was not enough for the sixth championship title.

Game dates of the championship final 1988

Just one year later, Turbine was able to successfully take revenge. Again the final opponent was Rotation Schlema. In the local Karl-Liebknecht-Stadion the "Turbines" came to a 3-1 victory. Ines Kulick scored all three goals of her team. The second leg was lost 2: 3, but this was enough for the sixth and final GDR championship. The Potsdam player Hoffmeister caused a curiosity. At first she brought her team 2-1 ahead, but a few minutes later they equalized with an own goal .

Match dates of the championship final 1989

After the season there was a change in the team. Numerous top performers ended their careers due to age, and Schröder had to rejuvenate the team. The fall of the Berlin Wall also had consequences for sport. Since the VEB could no longer afford a company sports team, the BSG was transferred to the SSV Turbine Potsdam on January 1, 1990. On January 5, 1990, Schröder's team won a deposit game against VfB Lichterfelde as part of the Berlin indoor tournament . It was the first game against a West German team. A day later, the "turbines" duped the top West German teams at a tournament in Hagen .

The western clubs slowly began to show an interest in the Turbine players. There was no exodus like that of the men because the western clubs did not keep all their promises. Turbine could not defend the title. Both games against BSG Post Rostock were lost and the final was missed as second in the group. The 1990/91 season was about qualifying for the Bundesliga . Only the top two teams should qualify. The club finished the season in third place, and the "Turbines" were second class for the first time. In 1991 the team reached the final in the Cup of the Democratic Women's Federation for the first time, which the "Turbines" lost 2-0

With a three point lead over 1. FC Lübars , Turbine became champions of the Oberliga Nordost . The following round of promotion turned into a disaster. In the end, the "Turbines" only got a draw against STV Lövenich . At the end of the 1991/92 season Schröder resigned after 21 years as a coach and took over the managerial position. At that time, financial worries plagued the club and the surrounding area. The players lost their jobs and sometimes the club didn't know if they could even afford the trip to the next away game. Peter Raupach took over the coaching office without much success and only finished fourth with the team. In 1993 Schröder brought Frank Lange to the club. With him success came back. During the winter break, the club signed two Russian players for the first time. These turned out to be essential reinforcements, and Turbine became the master. After a 3-2 win over SG Wattenscheid 09 , the promotion round could already be celebrated after four of six game days. Top-class new signings were not possible for financial reasons; Nevertheless, the club went into the first Bundesliga season with a lot of optimism.

On the first day of the 1994/95 season , FC Rumeln-Kaldenhausen came to the Karl-Liebknecht Stadium . The guests achieved an 11-0 victory. Turbine hadn't lost a single home game during the entire GDR era. More bankruptcies in the cup and in the league followed, and criticism of Lange grew from game to game. On November 20, 1994, Lange's coaching time ended with a scandal. Before the game against FC Eintracht Rheine , manager Schröder mentioned in a private conversation with Rheine's coach Alfred Werner that Lange would be fired if he lost again. Rheine won the game 3-0. At first nothing happened during the press conference. After the press conference, Schröder took Lange aside to discuss the situation in private. Surrounded by the press and the players, who in the meantime got wind of the possible resignation, Schröder announced the coach's dismissal. In protest, some players announced that they no longer wanted to play for Turbine.

The former Turbine player Sabine Seidel then took over the team, which was in danger of relegation, for the rest of the season. To strengthen the team, three more Russian players were brought in. With a show of strength, the team moved up to sixth place in the table and was able to hold the class. Even if things went better now, the new Russians did not want to integrate. At the end of the season the trio had flown home again and Turbine needed a new coach. The club established contact with Lothar Müller through the team supervisor. With his commitment, Turbine also became interesting for (West) Berlin players who had previously treated Turbine with disdain due to the situation in the former GDR. The 1995/96 season ended the "Turbines" again in sixth place, but were able to reduce the number of goals conceded considerably. In addition, the team beat group winners Grün-Weiß Brauweiler 3-2 at home and was able to achieve a respectable success.

The 1996/97 season was about qualifying for the single-track Bundesliga. Only the first four qualified directly for the new class. From a sporting point of view, the season turned into a rollercoaster ride, and in the end only fifth place came out for Potsdam. Now it went into the relegation, where Turbine met SG Wattenscheid 09, WSV Wolfsburg and Hertha Zehlendorf . On the penultimate matchday, Lothar Müller's team qualified for the upper house with a 2-0 win against Wattenscheid. For the first time the club reached the semi-finals in the DFB Cup . In their own place, the team lost to FC Eintracht Rheine 2: 3. A coaching discussion began again and the club decided to hire a full-time coach. The choice fell on Eckhard Düwiger, who had recently been dismissed from Spandauer SV .

1997–2005: The path to becoming a top club

Ariane Hingst

With Ariane Hingst from Hertha Zehlendorf, the club was able to sign a national player. It turned out to be very difficult. Hingst had to switch to a Bundesliga club if she wanted to continue playing in the national team. With Hertha Zehlendorf, she missed promotion, Tennis Borussia Berlin was relegated from the Bundesliga. She went to the "East" only very reluctantly. Hingst kept a certain distance from her team-mates in the first few months. The situation changed after the coach was replaced. A main sponsor had to file for bankruptcy and the club could no longer afford Düwiger's salary. Without further ado, the contract with the coach was terminated and Bernd Schröder took over the training again. Schröder did not allow the negligence of his national player and occasionally sat Hingst on the bench when he was dissatisfied with her. During the season, Conny Pohlers returned from TuS Niederkirchen . The first season of the single-track Bundesliga ended the turbine in sixth place, and the slow rise began.

In the 1998/99 season the course was set for later successes. On March 12, 1999, the members of the women's football department in the MEVAG (Märkische Energieversorgung AG) clubhouse decided to break away from SSV Turbine Potsdam and to found an independent association under the name of 1. FFC Turbine Potsdam on April 1, 1999. The club was sporting to fourth place and for the first time achieved a balanced sporting record. During the season there was a remarkable 4-4 draw against 1. FFC Frankfurt . The Frankfurt women were already leading 4-0 before the turbines almost turned the game around. With this game began the rivalry between the two clubs, which continues to this day. In the cup, the team reached the semi-finals for the second time and lost them 2-0 at FCR Duisburg . There was an unusual game on May 29, 1999 when the "Turbines" played a charity game against the SV Babelsberg 03 men's team . The proceeds were donated to refugees from Kosovo . Turbine continues to play friendly matches against male teams and male youth teams on a regular basis.

List of games against men's teams

The last season in the old millennium ended in fourth place again. For the first time the “Turbines” showed a positive balance and for the first time the team in the Karl-Liebknecht-Stadion remained unbeaten. At the beginning of the season, Bernd Schröder appointed Ariane Hingst as team captain in order to give her more responsibility, which should pay off in the following years. Also in 2000 the club won the first German championship of the B-Juniors. Some of these players, including Viola Odebrecht , made it into the first team next season.

When the 2000/01 season ended , Turbine was in second place for the first time. It was the only team that champions 1. FFC Frankfurt couldn't win. In the cup, the Potsdam women made it to the semi-finals again, where they lost to FFC Flaesheim-Hillen on penalties . The runner-up should not be an isolated event. Second place was confirmed as early as 2002. At the beginning of the season, national goalkeeper Nadine Angerer was signed by Bayern Munich , and Conny Pohlers was the top scorer in the Bundesliga with 27 goals this season. Instead, the cup was back in the semi-finals, where Turbine had to admit defeat to the later relegated Hamburger SV 2: 3.

Anja noon

The association wanted to increase its success with high investments. The goal scorer Petra Wimbersky came from Bayern Munich, the young national player Navina Omilade from Brauweiler and the highly talented Anja Mittag from Aue . But first there was another surprising defeat in the cup. In the first round, the "Turbines" had to go to the regional division Hamburger SV and lost 2-0. But things went better in the Bundesliga, where Turbine was on par with the dominant 1. FFC Frankfurt. The decision had to be made on the last day of the match in the Karl Liebknecht Stadium. Frankfurt was two points ahead and Turbine had to win to become champions. 7,900 spectators at the “final” ensured a record attendance that is still valid today. The Hessischer Rundfunk and the Ostdeutsche Rundfunk Brandenburg broadcast the game live and together were able to reach half a million viewers. An exciting game developed with scoring chances on both sides.

In the 89th minute, Petra Wimbersky is sent with a through pass in the direction of Frankfurter Tor. Their shot landed in the goal and a storm of cheers broke out in the stadium. In vain, because the linesman had reported offside . A few moments later, the final whistle followed, and Frankfurt became champions for the third time in a row. It could not be clarified whether the decision was correct, as the ORB's camera failed at the crucial moment. Nevertheless, there was satisfaction in the club, because Turbine was able to avert the financial collapse thanks to the unusually high income from viewers.

Turbine got off to a good start in the 2003/04 season , which was interrupted by the 2003 World Cup in the USA . The then national coach Tina Theune-Meyer nominated four turbine players with Nadine Angerer, Ariane Hingst, Viola Odebrecht and Conny Pohlers. The German national team eventually became world champions. In the Bundesliga, the turbines rushed from victory to victory and ultimately remained away from home without defeat. In the second round of the cup, the opponent was once again Hamburger SV. In extra time, Jennifer Zietz scored the winning goal to make it 2-1. During the regular season, HSV led 1-0 for a long time before Viola Odebrecht equalized with a desperate shot just before the final whistle. During the winter break, Turbine won the first all-German title. In the final of the DFB indoor cup , Schröder's team beat HSV 1-0 and was able to shed the reputation of "eternal second". After further cup victories over Bad Neuenahr and Brauweiler, the "Turbines" made it to the final for the first time. Opponent was the arch-rival 1. FFC Frankfurt. Turbine dominated the game right from the start and scored a 3-0 win thanks to goals from Conny Pohlers, Jennifer Zeitz and Anja Mittag.

In the Bundesliga, the title was also within reach. The team went into the season finale with one point ahead of 1. FFC Frankfurt. Also this year there was a duel between the giants on the last day of the match, this time in Frankfurt. In front of 4,800 spectators in the stadium at Brentanobad , Potsdam managed a 7-2 victory and celebrated the first all-German championship title.

Joy about the UEFA Cup

In addition to defending his title, the 2004/05 season saw her first participation in the UEFA Women's Cup. With two clear wins in the semifinals against Trondheims-Ørn SK from Norway , Turbine moved into the final against the Swedish club Djurgårdens IF / Älvsjö . Turbine won the first leg in Stockholm with goals from Conny Pohlers and Anja Mittag 2-0. In front of 8,667 spectators in the Karl Liebknecht Stadium, the Potsdam women won the European Cup with a 3-1 win in the second leg. Conny Pohlers was the top scorer of the competition with 14 goals.

In the DFB Cup, Potsdam defended the title with a 3-0 win over Frankfurt. Turbine was able to repeat its success in the DFB indoor cup with a 5-3 final victory over the Frankfurt women during the winter break. In the Bundesliga, the club only achieved third place due to the unusual double burden of the European Cup.

2005–2012: a time of upheaval and new successes

Despite the European Cup victory, the "Turbines" started weakly in the 2005/06 season . Frankfurt led the table for a long time before the Hessians got out of step after a 2-1 defeat at SC Freiburg . With a 6-2 win in Frankfurt, in which Conny Pohlers scored four goals, and a subsequent 2-1 in the home game against FCR Duisburg, Potsdam turned things around. Turbine had a series of 13 wins in a row and, after a 3-1 win at Hamburger SV, won the second all-German championship. Conny Pohlers was top scorer for the second time with 36 goals this season. In the DFB Cup, the final pairing was for the third time in a row Potsdam - Frankfurt. In contrast to previous years, the 2006 final was a tough affair. In pouring rain, the Frankfurt women played very defensively. In the 79th minute, Isabel Kerschowski , who had just been substituted, scored the opening goal . Petra Wimbersky scored the 2-0 final score after a counterattack.

Game dates for the 2006 cup final

In the semi-finals of the UEFA Women's Cup, the 2005 final was reissued. The “Turbines” lost the first leg on their own against Djurgårdens IF / Älvsjö . In Stockholm, the Potsdam women turned it around with a 5-2 win and made it into the final against 1. FFC Frankfurt. For the first time, two teams from the same country were in the final. In rainy weather, Frankfurt won 4-0 and went into the second leg as a big favorite, which Frankfurt won 3-2.

Match dates for the 2006 UEFA Women's Cup Finals

Bianca Schmidt

After the 2005/06 season, seasoned Bundesliga players, Petra Wimbersky and Karolin Thomas , moved to Frankfurt. The start of the 2006/07 season failed with two defeats in Essen and against Wolfsburg. Later, the team was thrown back by home defeats against Frankfurt and Duisburg, which led to unrest within the team and the environment. Britta Carlson left the club for Wolfsburg during the winter break . Like Petra Wimbersky before her, she justified her move with differences between her and the trainer. Potsdam was eliminated in the second round of the DFB Cup and in the quarter-finals of the European Cup against Brøndby IF .

March 2007 was turbulent. First Ariane Hingst announced her move to Djurgården Damfotboll . Then Conny Pohlers announced changes to 1. FFC Frankfurt and Navina Omilade to VfL Wolfsburg. Bernd Schröder was caught in the crossfire of criticism. His management style is too authoritarian and his methods are outdated. Schröder was even ridiculed by the taz as “Babelsberg's bank screamer”. While the coach rarely used the players who were willing to change, young players such as Babett Peter and Bianca Schmidt performed well. Potsdam remained unbeaten in the last 13 games of the season and finished third in the end.

Before the cup game on Mellendorfer TV

In the 2007/08 season , the club went with one of the youngest teams to have ever played in the Bundesliga. The turbines won the DFB indoor cup for the third time, unbeaten. The second half of the Bundesliga, however, was mixed. Due to numerous losses of points, including a 2: 7 defeat at Bayern Munich, the team endangered third place, which could only be secured on the last match day.

The 1st FFC Turbine started the 2008/09 season with an almost unchanged team . With Viola Odebrecht, a home-grown man returned to Potsdam. After a messed up group phase, the team won the DFB indoor cup for the fourth time in Magdeburg on January 24, 2009 . In the cup competition, the turbines reached the final again after three years, which was held for the last time in the Berlin Olympic Stadium. Despite a courageous performance, Bernd Schröder's team left the field with a 7-0 defeat and suffered the highest defeat in the final in the history of the DFB Cup.

Game dates for the 2009 cup final

Things went better in the Bundesliga. On the last day of the match, the team secured their third all-German championship title in a “heart-stopping final” with a 3-0 home win against VfL Wolfsburg . The tied but one goal worse competitor FC Bayern Munich did not get beyond a 3-0 win against TSV Crailsheim , who were already relegated . The "turbines" had to wait five minutes after the final whistle, as the game in Crailsheim was not yet over.

Even before the end of the season, the club presented Fatmire Bajramaj from FCR 2001 Duisburg, a spectacular new addition to the 2009/10 season , and added talents like Nadine Keßler to the squad . The team went into the winter break, tied on points with Duisburg, during which the indoor cup was won for the third time in a row. On the penultimate day of the Bundesliga, the “Turbines” also secured the championship with a 1-0 win against SC 07 Bad Neuenahr.

The Schröder-Elf were also successful in the first-ever UEFA Women's Champions League , which replaced the UEFA Women's Cup. In the final, the team met Olympique Lyon in Getafe, Spain . After 120 minutes without a goal, the decision was made on penalties . After Jennifer Zietz and Anja Mittag failed, a preliminary decision seemed to have been made. But then Potsdam goalkeeper Anna Felicitas Sarholz saved two penalties from the French and brought her team back into play. In the end Lyons Thomis just hit the bar and Potsdam became the first Champions League winner.

Match details for the 2010 UEFA Women's Champions League Final

The 2010/11 season brought the third championship in a row . This time the decision was made on the last day of the match, when Turbine defeated SG Essen-Schönebeck 3-0 in front of 7,000 spectators. After just four minutes, the home team led 2-0 thanks to hits from Viola Odebrecht and Anja Mittag. The 8: 2 victory of the regained competitor 1. FFC Frankfurt over Bayern Munich was worthless, as Potsdam had won one point more in the final bill. Frankfurt returned the favor in the cup final, which the Hessians won 2-1. In the Champions League, the Potsdam women reached the final again in 2011, but where they had to admit defeat Olympique Lyon 2-0.

Before the start of the 2011/12 season , Potsdam had to cope with the move from national player Fatmire Bajramaj to 1. FFC Frankfurt. Nevertheless, the team was able to secure the fourth championship in a row with an 8-0 win over 1. FC Lokomotive Leipzig on the last matchday . No team had succeeded in this since the Bundesliga was founded. Newcomer Genoveva Añonma secured the top scorer with 22 goals.

Since 2012: present

For the 2012/13 season , Turbine lost again three national players with Babett Peter, Bianca Schmidt and Viola Odebrecht. Nevertheless, the team played for the championship for a long time before defeats in Munich, Essen and Frankfurt set the team back. With a 2-0 win at FSV Gütersloh in 2009 and the simultaneous 1: 2 home defeat of 1. FFC Frankfurt against Bayern Munich, they again qualified for the Champions League. Yuki Nagasato was the top scorer with 18 goals. The turbines lost the DFB Cup final against VfL Wolfsburg 2: 3.

Match dates for the 2013 cup final

In the following season , the team played for the title for a long time, but collapsed in the final phase of the season. After a 1: 2 defeat at 1. FFC Frankfurt on the penultimate match day, third place was determined. In the Champions League , the Turbines surprisingly prevailed against Olympique Lyon in the round of 16 and only failed in the semi-finals at VfL Wolfsburg. The 2014/15 season , in which the Turbinen finished fourth, went similarly . Once again, the team made it to the DFB Cup final and defeated VfL Wolfsburg with a 3-0 draw. Bernd Schröder announced his departure from the club for the next season.

Game dates for the 2015 cup final

In the 2015/16 season the 1. FFC lacked a playmaker and idea generator in midfield. Potsdam did not get beyond sixth place in the table and ended the season in seventh place. This was the team's worst placement in the era of Bernd Schröder, who retired at the age of 73 after 45 years of service with and for Turbine as trainer, manager and board member. Co-trainer Matthias Rudolph moved up to the coaching position . Rudolph led the team back to the top of the table.

In the 2016/17 season , the Potsdam women surprisingly secured the autumn championship early, but slacked off towards the end of the season and came third. A year later , the team reached fourth place and made it to the semi-finals of the DFB Cup . At the end of the 2019/20 season , the club separated from coach Matthias Rudolph because the club wanted to start the new season with a full-time coach. He was succeeded by Sofian Chahed .

Another team

Second team

The second team played in the 2nd Bundesliga North until the 2017/18 season and qualified fourth for the single-track 2nd Women's Bundesliga . In 1996 the team made it to the Regionalliga Nordost . The greatest success in this league was the runner-up in 2003. In addition, the team came third three times (2000, 2002, 2004). In 2004 the team qualified for the newly founded 2nd Bundesliga. The Potsdam women were champions of the northern group in 2012 and 2014 .

Potsdam II has participated in the DFB Cup seven times so far . The team reached the round of 16 twice. In 1999 the team reached the round of 16 without a fight and then lost 6-0 to WSV Wolfsburg . In 2005 , the team eliminated Bundesliga club Hamburger SV on penalties and caused a surprise. In the round of 16, the team lost 3-2 against VfL Wolfsburg . In 1997 and 2000 there were club-internal duels with the first team in the cup. The first team won both comparisons. Since 2005, following a rule change, no second teams have been allowed to participate in the DFB Cup.

Third team

The third team plays in the Brandenburgliga, the fourth highest division. Between 2005 and 2007 the third team played in the third-class Regionalliga Nordost. Through internal restructuring, the team was withdrawn from the league.

highlighted in blue: teams in boys' leagues.

In the 2008/09 season the 1. FFC Turbine provided seven teams in the youth division, five of which competed in regular league play. In total, over 100 girls play in the seven teams. The junior coordinator is Matthias Morack . Since 2007, Andrée Recker has been a pedagogue as a contact person for the players. The junior area is divided into a performance area (U-17 and U-15) and a mass sports area (all younger age groups). All players in the performance area attend the “Friedrich Ludwig Jahn” sports school in Potsdam.

The first U-17 team to compete exclusively against boys' teams has been following an unusual path since 2004. First, the team played in the C-Junior District League Havelland-Mitte. In the first three seasons, the team was runner-up every time and was able to defeat the male competition in double digits. From 2007 to 2012, the team played after promotion in the C junior state class, the second highest division in Brandenburg.

At the same time, the first U-15 team took a place in the C junior district league. The second U-17 and U-15 teams as well as the U-13s compete in the top division against girls' teams of the same age. There is also a U-11 and a U-9 team that takes part in various tournaments. In 2008 and 2011, the B-Juniors of the 1st FFC Turbine won the Gütersloh Indoor Masters , the unofficial German indoor championship.

Rivalries

1. FFC Frankfurt

The arch rival of 1. FFC Turbine Potsdam is 1. FFC Frankfurt , which started as SG Praunheim until 1998 . Although a competitor in the Bundesliga for several years, the rivalry did not develop until the beginning of the 21st century, when, from the perspective of Frankfurt, a serious opponent for the championship arose with Potsdam.

Turbine's biggest defeat against rivals from Frankfurt am Main resulted from the first ever comparison between the two teams. The Potsdam women lost on October 5, 1997 at SG Praunheim 1: 7. Although the 1. FFC Frankfurt established itself as the serial champions and record cup winners in the following years , the Brandenburg women - the toughest rival for the championship from 2001 - were able to gradually narrow the gap and position themselves at eye level for the first time in the 2002/03 season . On the last day of the match Turbine Potsdam missed its first championship title in front of its own audience and in a direct duel with Frankfurt when the necessary winning goal was not given due to alleged offside . In 2004 the turbines successfully took revenge. The 7-2 victory in Frankfurt meant the first all-German championship for Bernd Schröder's team and at the same time their highest victory to date against the dethroned champions. Turbine had already triumphed against Frankfurt in the final of the DFB Cup two weeks earlier and ended a five-year streak of victories for the Hessians with an undisputed 3-0 victory.

In the following seasons too, the duels with 1. FFC Frankfurt often pointed the way to winning the championship and cup competition. From 2005 to 2012, all championship titles went to Frankfurt or Potsdam. In their further victorious appearances in the DFB Cup finals in 2005 and 2006 , the Potsdam women had to fight back against the resistance of their Frankfurt rival, who in turn was able to keep the upper hand in the competitions in 2008 (quarter finals) and 2011 (finals). In addition, both teams faced each other in the final of the UEFA Women's Cup 2005/06 , in which Turbine Potsdam had to admit defeat in both the first and second leg. At the end of the 2010/2011 season , the old and new champions from Potsdam were only separated by one point from the pursuer from Frankfurt.

Record against 1. FFC Frankfurt

FCR 2001 Duisburg

Another rivalry exists with FCR 2001 Duisburg , which was one of the championship favorites a few years before Turbine Potsdam. The title holder from 2000 completed the podium alongside Potsdam and Frankfurt in the years 2001 to 2011 with two exceptions. Although the Duisburg women were unable to win another championship title during this time, from 2005 to 2010 they each managed a placement in front of one of the other two teams, in 2007 and 2008 before Potsdam. FCR Duisburg was the only team in the DFB Cup - apart from FFC Frankfurt - to have lost to Turbine Potsdam in recent years. The Brandenburgers had to give up the sails against the team from the Ruhr area in 2007 as well as in 2009 and 2010 . In the Champions League , Turbine has so far been able to hold itself harmless against FCR Duisburg when it was defeated in 2010 and 2011 in the fight for the finals.

environment

Stadion

Turbine flag in the Karl Liebknecht Stadium

The 1. FFC Turbine Potsdam plays its home games in the Karl-Liebknecht-Stadion in Potsdam-Babelsberg . The club shares the stadium with the men's regional division SV Babelsberg 03 . The stadium, called “Karli” by fans, has a capacity of 10,787 seats, 1,472 of which are mostly covered. The stadium has folding floodlight masts that are unique in Germany .

In autumn 2006, a resident who had moved to the stadium arranged for a ban on "noise instruments" such as drums and trumpets. This ban was lifted at the beginning of March 2007 on the condition that these instruments were only used in the opposite stand.

The second and third teams play in the stadium of the Sportforum Waldstadt ( Lage ) in the Waldstadt I district . This stadium has a capacity of around 2,000 seats.

Fans

The 1. FFC Turbine Potsdam has with the "Turbine-Adlers" (founded on December 4th, 2004) and the "Turbinefans e. V. “(founded August 14, 2008) two fan clubs. Turbine fans are particularly fond of traveling and maintain a friendship with the fans of the FFC Heike Rheine . Despite a certain sporting rivalry, there is a friendly relationship with the supporters of FCR 2001 Duisburg.

The jersey number 12 has not been awarded since the 2006/07 season. The club and the team thanked the fans with a symbolic jersey handover by the then team captain Ariane Hingst for the loud support at the games.

The club holds the record for the best-attended game of all time in the women's Bundesliga. On June 15, 2003, 7,900 spectators saw the game against 1. FFC Frankfurt. The highest attendance ever was reached on May 21, 2005 when 8,677 spectators watched the UEFA Women's Cup final second leg against Djurgårdens IF / Älvsjö .

Youth work

Viola Odebrecht was one of the first sports students to make the leap into the first team.

Since 1996 the 1st FFC Turbine has been cooperating with the sports school Potsdam "Friedrich Ludwig Jahn" . Back then, women's football was still a little-noticed sport, and for male offspring in the state of Brandenburg there was only a comparable facility in Cottbus . Every year an entrance school class made up of a maximum of twelve talented young players is set up. In addition to their school education, the students complete up to nine training units per week. Players who come from outside the Potsdam region are accommodated in a boarding school.

In May 1997 the German Sports Federation and the National Olympic Committee awarded the comprehensive school, which had previously been a sports center, with the title of “ Elite School of Sports ”. The admission criteria were thus refined. In addition to athletic talent, academic performance now also plays a role. The school's sighting system is considered exemplary. The Brandenburg Association creates a list of all players who play in boys' teams. These players are invited to viewing appointments. In the next step, the candidates and their parents are invited to school, where with the help of psychologists and doctors it is examined whether the girls can cope with the double burden. Once this hurdle has been overcome, a training camp follows, where it is decided who will ultimately be accepted. The state of Brandenburg bears the costs for the boarding school, the parents of the girls pay the costs for meals.

The first successes came in 2000, when the B-youth won the first German championship. Almost all of the team's players went to the Friedrich Ludwig Jahn Sports School. Many of them made it into the first team in the next few years, some even made it into the German national team. Viola Odebrecht and the national player Babett Peter are among the best-known students at the sports school . So far, the Turbine youngsters have won the German championship of the B-Juniors seven times. On December 20, 2006, the German Football Association awarded the school the " Elite School of Football " award .

The “Team 2011” project was launched in 2006 under the leadership of head coach Bernd Schröder. This team includes the twelve most talented players from the Turbine youth team. The 14 to 17 year old girls train once a week with Bernd Schröder. In addition, the players receive financial, academic and professional support. The aim of the team in 2011 is to introduce the talented girls to the Bundesliga and the national team. The year 2011 symbolically refers to the World Cup taking place in Germany .

The success of the youth work is reflected in the selection teams of the DFB and the Brandenburg State Football Association (FLB). The selection teams of the FLB consist exclusively of players from the 1st FFC Turbine. Turbine makes up the majority of the players in the DFB's selection teams. Six players from Potsdam, for example, were in the squad of the U-19 national team for the 2007 European Championship in Iceland .

Turbine Girls Camp

The 1. FFC Turbine Potsdam has been involved in organizing the “Turbine Girls Camp” since 2005, a joint project with the FC Flick Foundation against xenophobia, racism and intolerance . In 2006 the camp was a German-Polish girls' soccer project in cooperation with the KS AZS Wrocław . In 2007 they worked with the 1. FC Lokomotive Leipzig association . There are also football camps during the holidays, where young girls can improve their football skills under the guidance of young coaches.

Turbine Indoor Cup

Since 2013, the 1st FFC Turbine Potsdam has been holding its own indoor soccer tournament, the Turbine Indoor Cup . The venue is the MBS Arena Potsdam . In addition to the 1st FFC Turbine as host, top teams from all over Europe take part in this tournament.
