history

DTC 99

The Düsseldorf Football Club was founded on September 20, 1899. The first game was played against the Mönchengladbach-Rheydter football club and lost 1: 5. The first victory in the club's history was achieved with a 1-0 in the second leg. The first international game took place in 1902 against Olympia Rotterdam and was lost 3-0. In the 1906/07 season, the Düsseldorf team achieved the greatest success in their club's history. After they had previously poached the best players from Viktoria Ratingen , a football club for English workers, they won the West German championship and were thus qualified for the final round for the "Germans" . Here they were defeated by SC Victoria Hamburg 1: 8 in the preliminary round . The big defeat came about because the DFB had forbidden the Düsseldorfer FC to use their English players during the final round, so that the Düsseldorfer were forced to play with half a substitute team.

In 1912, the Düsseldorf football club was renamed the Düsseldorfer Sport-Club 1899. This should take into account the other sports offered by the club in the meantime. In the 1944/45 season, DSC and Fortuna Düsseldorf formed a war gaming community, KSG Düsseldorf. The German national player Konrad Heidkamp played for DSC 99 in the 1920s and won the German soccer championship in 1932 as captain of FC Bayern Munich . The former striker Michael Preetz , who played 7 international matches for Germany , also comes from the youth of the DSC, to which he belonged until 1982. Olympians Matthias Mauritz and Albert Görtz as well as Bundesliga player Jürgen Schult also grew up at Düsseldorfer SC. Another famous player was the former national soccer player Gottfried Fuchs , whom Sepp Herberger called the "Beckenbauer" of his youth.

Venues

The sporting home of the footballers of the DSC 99 was initially a place on Färberstrasse in Bilk , later the Golzheimer Insel and then Oberkassel , where they played on the Rhine meadows in front of the Rheinlust excursion restaurant. On September 22, 1907, the club's own sports facility was inaugurated on Windscheidstrasse in Düsseltal, where the club still plays its home games today. In 1921, in front of 30,000 visitors, the final of the German soccer championship between 1. FC Nuremberg and Vorwärts 90 Berlin was held here , which Nuremberg won 5-0. In 1924, an international athletics match between Germany and Switzerland was held on the facility . Today the sports facilities on Windscheidstrasse form the municipal district sports facility in Düsseltal .

Hockey, tennis, lacrosse

The three sports that are based in Düsseldorf-Gerresheim have their own board of directors and the administration is also independent. The facility has two hockey halls, two artificial turf fields, a natural grass field, 12 tennis courts and an indoor tennis center.

In 1912 the hockey department of the Düsseldorf Sport Club was founded in 1899. The first men's hockey team just missed promotion to the 2nd Bundesliga on the field in 2007. In the hall she played the 2007/08 season in the 1st Bundesliga . The first women's hockey team plays in the regional league in the 07/08 indoor season and in the major league in the 07/08 field season. The tennis department has existed since 1910. It provided the Düsseldorf city champion several times and, in Rolf Gehring , a Davis Cup player. Since 2005 you can also play lacrosse in DSC 99 . The club already has one men's, one women's and two youth teams (for boys and girls). The men became German champions in the 2011 season.

athletics

In 1919 Emil Bedarff won the first championship title for the DSC in the obstacle course, in 1920 he won the 5000 meter run, but then moved to Frankfurt. In 1929 Albert Kilp was the club's next German champion in the 5000 meter run. At the German indoor championships in 1955, Albert Radusch finally won the 400-meter run. The future German champion Maria Jeibmann also started her career at DSC.

At the German championships in 1954 Jobst had only achieved second place behind Cologne's Heinz Oberbeck , who won the bronze medal in the decathlon at the European championships.
