Workers Water Sports Association

The Workers 'Water Sports Association was created in 1913 through the inclusion of worker canoeists, worker rowers and worker sailors in the workers' swimming association (founded in 1890). The previously existing workers' swimming newspaper was renamed Freier Wassersport (published in Berlin-Neukölln). The association was forcibly dissolved in May 1933.
