1. FCN Rolling and Ice Sports

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The 1. FCN Roll- und Eissport e. V. emerged as an independent club from the roller skating and figure skating department of the main club founded in 1937 as part of the organizational reform at 1. FC Nürnberg . Like the other former club departments, the club has since been part of the FCN umbrella organization. The club offers the sports of figure skating, roller skating , speed skating , skater hockey , roller derby and bike polo on. With 189 members, the club was the roller sports club with the largest number of members in Bavaria in 2006 . The association has now reached 230 members.

The club's sports facility is located on the club grounds of 1. FC Nuremberg on Valznerweiherstrasse in Nuremberg. The new rooms were also moved into there in September 2012. In the newly built building, right next to the speed runway, there are changing rooms, an office and an equipment warehouse. The high-speed track was renewed in 2019. The track was shortened from 202 to 200 m and the curve elevation increased.

Roller sports

1. FC Nürnberg is one of six founding members of the Bavarian Roller Sports and Inline Association, which was founded in Nuremberg in 1948 as the Bavarian Roller Sports Association .

Roller hockey

In roller hockey , the men of 1. FC Nürnberg were initially the dominant club in Germany in the 1920s and 1930s. From 1937 to 1942 they were German champions six times in a row. After the Second World War, however, the club gentlemen could no longer build on these successes. The first Bundesliga they belonged to only one season, the Bundesliga 2 also for a short time.

Figure skating

In Rollkunstlauf 1. FC Nuremberg is one of the most successful clubs in Germany. So brought Lydia choice and Fritz Handel in 1937 at the first European Championship title at the men and women. In 1938 they were able to repeat the success. The club's athletes also triumphed in pair skating at the 1937 European Championships: Liselotte Roth with Bruno Walter . Freimut Stein achieved two world championship titles in 1951 and 1952.

The international successes complement numerous German championship titles: Leni Haas was successful in the women in 1930, 1931 and 1933. Dorle Kraußer followed in her footsteps in 1936 , before Lydia Wahl also became three-time German champion in 1938, 1940 and 1942. In the men's race, the Nuremberg team had several serial champions: first of all, H. Schmitz won the German championship seven times in a row from 1930 to 1936. Then Fritz Handel followed with five titles from 1937 to 1941. Freimut Stein won the first championship in 1942, but it was not until 1950 to 1954 that he achieved a series of five further successes in a row. The dominance of the women and men in the individual competitions almost inevitably led to title wins in pair skating: the Haas / Pfister duo was successful in 1930, 1931, 1933 and 1934, followed by another title for Pfister in 1935 with partner Sellmaier. The European champions Liselotte Roth and Bruno Walter won three German championships in 1936, 1937 and 1938.

In 2005, Verena Dittmer joined the tradition of successful roller skaters as the German B girls champion.

Roller speed

German championships have been held in this discipline since 1911. Here, too, the club's Nuremberg roller-skaters were among the formative clubs. In 1937 they inaugurated the first special runway for speed skating in Germany. From then on, the German title fights took place there. The first surviving titleholders have also come down to us from 1937. Both the men with Benno Faltermeyer and the women with Hilde Lang won members of the FCN. Hilde Lang also triumphed from 1938 to 1940, in the men's race in 1938 and 1939 Alfons Heiß from Nuremberg was the champion. In 1938 Lydia Wahl not only won the European Championship in art skating, but also in high-speed. In addition, Willy Stengel, world record holder over 1000 and 10,000 meters, and Richard Rippel won German championship titles during these years.

In 1953, Inge Ammon from Nuremberg was the first German post-war female champion . In 1969 and 1971 Manfred Zenker won a title at the German championships, which have since been dominated by Schweinfurt runners.

In the 1980s, Barbara Fischer then set standards in speed skating . The three-time world record holder won twice the European championships with the women's relay and once the world championship, also with the relay over 5000 m. She also won gold at the 1989 World Games over 300 m. With 41 German championship titles, which she won between 1981 and 1990, she was the record champion until 1997. At the official level, Richard Rippel from 1. FC Nürnberg helped shape German speed skating. From its founding in 1953 to 1985, he was chairman of the speed skating commission in the German roller sports and inline association . Barbara Fischer was chairwoman of the Bavarian Roller Sports and Inline Association from 2005 until her death in August 2015.

Parallel to Barbara Fischer's career, Nicolai Kutz also did very well in the men's category at some German championships. Over the 500 meters he was German runner-up in 1991 and 1994, and a third place from 1993. A second place over 1500 meters from 1994 and over 10,000 meters, a second place in 1994 and a third place in 1995 complete the national medal collection.

In the meantime, the high-speed skaters have switched from roller skates to inline skates . The skaters continue to perform successfully under the name of Speed-Team Nürnberg and from 2003 to 2006 they won the Bavarian Inline Cup four times in a row.

Ice skating

In figure skating , Sonja Matzdorf-Pfersdorf and Günter Matzdorf achieved their greatest success in 1965/66 with the German championship in pair skating for 1. FC Nürnberg. André Mammitzsch from Herzogenaurach is now the most successful active speed skater at 1. FC Nürnberg. He has already received several awards from the city of Nuremberg for his success at international level.
