The CFC Hertha 06 (officially: Charlottenburger Fußball-Club Hertha 06 eV ) is a Berlin sports club from the Charlottenburg district in the Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf district . In table tennis, the men's team played in the Bundesliga. There are also futsal , soccer, chess and bowling divisions.

Soccer

The club was founded on March 5, 1906 under the name Charlottenburger FC Vorwärts . As early as July 1906 it was renamed CFC Hertha 06 . In 1920, the team of the Charlottenburger SC Stern 1916 joined. In 1933, under pressure from the Nazi regime, it merged with FC Brandenburg 03 Berlin to form FC Brandenburg-Hertha 06 , which, however, was resolved a year later. At the sporting level, the CFC always acted inferiorly until the end of the Second World War.

In 1945 the club was dissolved and became part of the municipal SG Charlottenburg . The most successful sporting period of the club, which was re-established as CFC Hertha 06 in 1949, was the sixties. Between 1965 and 1970 the CFC played for five seasons in the Berlin amateur league . The Charlottenburg were able to hold the league with predominantly lower midfield positions for four years, they rose in 1970 as bottom of the table together with SC Union 06 Berlin and Spandauer BC again.

Subsequently, the CFC sank again in the lower class football of West Berlin up to the district league B. From 2004 several promotions followed. In 2008 he was promoted to the regional league, in 2014 he was promoted to the Berlin league and the following year, as a runner-up, the direct march through to the Oberliga Nordost .

The best-known football players from the CFC's youth division are Jérôme Polenz and Holger Gehrke , the latter currently the goalkeeping coach of FC Schalke 04 . Other players who made it into the Bundesliga were Michael Schmidt ( Hamburger SV , Blau-Weiß 90 Berlin ) and Heikko Glöde ( Hertha BSC ). The Bundesliga coach Heinz Lucas ( Fortuna Düsseldorf , TSV 1860 Munich , Eintracht Braunschweig ) also learned the football ABC at CFC Hertha 06 .

Table tennis

In 1993 the men's team from CFC Hertha 06 reached the table tennis Bundesliga , after having been promoted seven times in eight years, starting in the district league. Sports director since 1985 was Thomas Friese. The Swede Jörgen Persson was engaged . At the end of the 1993/94 season the team finished last, but was able to stay in the class because of the withdrawal of Spvg Steinhagen .

Thereupon the table tennis department founded its own club Super Donic Berlin and strengthened the team around Steffen Fetzner , Torben Wosik and Colum Slevin. The trainer was Stellan Bengtsson , President Herbert Hartmann, Managing Director of the main sponsor. In the 1994/95 season they reached 5th place, in the European ETTU Cup they reached the final. Since the main sponsor Neue Zeit , published by DZV Deutscher Zeitungsverlag GmbH, a subsidiary of the FAZ , ceased operations and was therefore unable to provide funding, Thomas Friese withdrew the team from the Bundesliga in 1995. All top players left the club. After several years in the Oberliga and the Association's Oberliga, the men of CFC Hertha 06 played in the Berlin Association League (7th division) in the 2017/18 season. There the team was canceled after three games without a fight. After this season all players left the club and moved to other teams. CFC Hertha 06 does not currently have any men's teams.

chess

In 1950, at the instigation of some footballers from CFC Hertha 06, a chess department was set up. Founding members were Karl Lehmann, Willi Zeitler, Alfred Maserath, Hans Horn, WT and Franz Ost, Ernst Krause and Kurt Moldenhauer. As early as 1951, the chess department took part in the then all-Berlin team championships and rose to the city class in 1959 and 1961, at that time the highest league in Berlin. The club was relegated every time, but has since been a regular participant in the Berlin team championships with several teams in different leagues. In the fifties, one of the strongest players, Richard Steinmetz, became a member, who even managed to defeat ex-world champion Max Euwe in a simultaneous event. In his honor, an internal tournament for the Richard Steinmetz Cup was held every year.

In the 1980s, the most famous player was the multiple club champion Paul Roesner, who was three times senior champion in Berlin between 1988 and 1991 and had previously won the German team championship with another club. Until his death in 1996 he played at Hertha 06. In 2002 and 2005 he was promoted to the city class again, which is currently the second highest league in Berlin. The team stayed here until 2016. The chess department dissolved in 2016 at an extraordinary general meeting.
