The club has become known nationwide primarily for its hockey department. Several teams were able to position themselves in top German sport and achieve success.

The 1st men's team has been playing in the 1st Bundesliga for years, both on the field and in the hall. At times this also succeeded the 1st women's team. The youth teams could win some championship titles. A number of Krefeld players, such as B. Matthias Witthaus and Christian Schulte were part of the national hockey team in 2006 and became world champions. The national coach of this team also worked for the club. In 1983, Bernhard Peters, then 23, came to the Krefeld team as sports director and also trained various youth teams. In 2007 the CHTC won the European Champion Clubs' Cup.

history

In 1890 the Crefeld tennis club was founded. The tennis facility on Hüttenallee was built and inaugurated in 1901. In 1912 the Crefelder Hockeyclub was founded, which first had its game operations on the Blumenthal sports field, then on the Kaiser-Wilhelm-Park cycling track and later on the Stadtwaldwiese. In 1930 the area on the Vreed, today's Gerd-Wellen hockey facility , was leased by the city. The Rot-Weiss tennis club was founded in 1922 and through the merger of these three clubs in 1938, the Crefelder Hockey- und Tennis Club 1890 e. V. , short CHTC. The hockey facility in the Vreed was destroyed in the Second World War, but was rebuilt in 1954 after 3 years of work. The new venue with its three grass fields and a new team house was inaugurated as part of a tournament for the 1st men's and 1st women's teams. Participating teams included: Gladbacher HTC, Uhlenhorst Mülheim, DHC Hanover, HC München-Pasing and VfR Mannheim. In 1959 the tennis facility followed suit and the extension of the tennis clubhouse was completed. In addition, a separate changing room for the tennis players was inaugurated. In 1982 a new changing room was opened on the hockey facility in the Vreed. To this day, the house is still on the hockey rink and is still in use, although a new training center was opened in 2010. First and foremost, the changing rooms for the CHTC youth teams are located there. Another milestone followed in 1990: One of the three grass pitches was converted into an artificial turf pitch in order to connect to "modern hockey". The square, which was realized in a hitherto unique way, was inaugurated. Each square meter of the square (6000 in total) was sold for 200 marks and one also got a ticket for the raffle at the “Hockey Go-On 1990”. In this way the financing of the place was secured. 2003 was another important year for the Crefelder HTC: On the one hand, the hockey facility was named after Gerd Wellen, the long-time sponsor of the youth hockey club, and in addition to the renovation of the playing surface of artificial turf field 1, a second modern artificial turf field was created. The hockey facility was now one of the best-equipped hockey facilities in Germany with two irrigated full artificial turf fields and one natural turf field. In 2009, the proposal of the board of directors to build a new hockey house on the Gerd-Wellen hockey facility was approved at the then general meeting. The capacities of the "old house" were no longer sufficient to do justice to the almost 600 active hockey players. Just one year later, the house was completed and inaugurated at the “Hockey Go-On 2010”. In addition, the tennis facility was completely renovated.

The hockey teams of the Crefeld HTC look back on a long successful history. For example, the female youth West German championship in 1978 and the girls A even managed the big coup with the German championship in 1978. Four years later, the male youth B won the German championship, as in 1986. The first men's team made the leap into field hockey in 1979. Bundesliga, just like the women in 1983. In the next 20 years both teams had to accept relegations, but the rapid ascent succeeded again and again. The 1st men's team has been part of the 1st Bundesliga since 2001 and can look back on a number of successes. The greatest victories in the club's history were the German championships in 2006 (field) and 2007 (hall) and the European Cup victories in 2007 (field) and 2008 (hall). The first women's team had to move into the second division in 2005 and this started a change in the team. After a few years in the regional league on the field and the major league in the hall, he was promoted to the Bundesliga in 2015.

Lars Kluthausen took on the role of team manager in the CHTC tennis division in 2005 and played a large part in both promotions in terms of organization and play. Furthermore, Lars Witteck (No. 2) as an experienced and successful player and Fabian Schüler complete the CHTC squad.
