The Pankower Sportclub Adler 08 was a German workers' sports club from Berlin , which existed from 1908 to 1933. The home of the club was the Kühnemannstrasse sports field .
Career
The club emerged from the merger of the clubs "Pankow 08" and "Adler", which merged around 1910 to form SC Adler Pankow. Both forerunner clubs and the fusion club initially played in the Association of Brandenburgischer Ballspielvereine (VBB), which was affiliated with the DFB , before joining the Workers' Gymnastics and Sports Association (ATSB) after the end of the First World War . In the ATSB football division, Adler 08 became a real competitor for the established Berlin workers' sports clubs Sparta Sportliche Vereinigung and BFC Nordiska 1913 at the end of the 1920s . In 1928 the Pankowers succeeded for the first and only time in bringing the German ATSB soccer championship to Berlin. In the final on May 6th in Berlin's Grunewald Stadium in front of 12,000 spectators, they defeated the southern champions ASV Frankfurt Westend 5-4 . The year before, they had provided an ATSB national player with Trotschinski, who was used as a half-left player in the 1927 3-2 win against Czechoslovakia in Munich.
When the National Socialists came to power, SC Adler was dissolved in 1933. The athletes of the Pankow club - in addition to the footballers, a strong hockey department that won the only German hockey championship of the communist fighting community for red sports unit , in 1932 with a 2-0 victory over ASV Leipzig-Schönefeld , and several good handball teams - joined the Berliner SC Favorit , which became a large club with around 700 members. “Favorit” was not only able to look forward to numerous talented young footballers, but also to two hockey and women's handball teams, alongside young women from both fields. The Adler hockey men were just as successful as the footballers, having won the ATSB Reich Championship in 1932 with a 3-2 win in the final against Leipzig-East. Above all, however, the previous workers' sports club brought the square on Kühnemannstrasse into the connection, which the Adler athletes had built themselves in 1931. Nevertheless, during the Third Reich it also became clear that the Pankower Sportclub Adler 08 had its roots in the labor movement opposed by the new rulers: the footballer Alex Jacoby from the 1928 championship eleven was killed by the Nazis in the concentration camp.
The clubs “Favorit” and “Pankow 08” grew so much together until 1945 that after the end of “communal sport” in 1947, when they started as SG Nordbahn, they decided to go under the new name “VfL Nord” Carrying on the future together. “When creating the association statutes, it was pointed out,” says the 100-year-old manuscript, “that the newly established association is practically the continuation of BSC Favorit 1896, and the associations Favorit 96 and Pankow 08 are the traditional ones. “This means that the later mergers, Sportliche Vereinigung 1896 Nord-Nordstern and SV Nord Wedding 1893 , still contain a piece of the former workers' sports club.
