ARBV Hanover
The Academic Rowing and Ball Game Club (ARBV) Hanover was a sports club in Hanover and a forerunner of the Angaria Hanover rowing community .
history
On January 31, 1898, Paul Boelcke, cousin of the later war pilot Oswald Boelcke , posted a notice on the bulletin board at Hanover University in which he was looking for students who were enthusiastic about sports to look after the football game . The call led to the establishment of the Academic Football Club (AFC) Hannover on February 10th in the form of a student union .
This club saw itself as the re-establishment of the 1898 suspended and founded on January 15, 1886 Association of Academic Cyclists. The first football games of the AFC, which was the first Hanoverian football club to play with the round leather and not with the rugby egg , took place on the Waterlooplatz or in the Steintormasch - later they also played on the cycling track at the horse tower . On October 1, 1898, the AFC was renamed the Akademischer Ballspielverein (ABV) .
When the Association of Hannoverscher Ballspiel-Vereine (VHBV) was founded in 1903, the first chairman of the Otto Hirseland club was also chairman of the association. The Hanover Championship, which was played for the first time in 1904, was won by the former AFC, which has been known as the Academic Rowing and Ball Game Association (ARBV) since 1902 and which had got rid of its Jewish members in the internal dispute . In the course of the season, the ARBV had beaten the soon-to-be-dominant FC Hannover 96 6-1, which also meant participation in the German championship of the DFB , which was held for the second time . In the quarter-finals, only nine Hanoverians went down 0:11 against the predecessor of Hamburger SV , SC Germania 1887 , because some active players had sunk the night before on a student pub crawl, with almost no records of the game. For example, the scorers are not known. For the ARBV, which the members of the rugby club Eintracht had joined, this bankruptcy was the first and only high point in its football history.
In the following year Hannover 96 secured the championship in the city league, from which the ARBV had already withdrawn. As can be seen from the club name, the members had taken a liking to the more befitting rowing - probably in 1906 the football game was finally given up, although since March 6, 1906 the club has only called itself Academic Rowing Association (ARV) . On July 16, 1927, the name was changed to Academic Rowing Association Angaria . On February 24, 1936, after the ban, the Angaria Hanover rowing community , which still exists today, was founded , the green of which in the green, white and red club crest can be traced back to the football pitch.
