GDR hockey champion
With GDR hockey champions the German champions of the German Democratic Republic of women and men in hockey , field and hall, are meant. The hockey champions of the Federal Republic of Germany are listed here: German champions (hockey) .
List of hockey champions
After the Second World War, all sports clubs in the Soviet occupation zone, later the GDR territory , were dissolved by instructions from the Soviet military administration in 1945. After the hockey business started again from around 1946, the clubs were assigned to a sponsoring company as a company sports community until around 1951 . Therefore, renaming was also possible beyond the period from 1949 to 1951 if the sponsoring companies changed. The following list is based on the German Hockey Yearbook, the information on www.sport-komplett.de and www.sport-record.de. If there are entries in Wikipedia for the individual clubs or their successors as a hockey club, they are stored as a reference. Since the pedigrees in the vast majority of cases only refer to the football sections, the following list shows which clubs that exist today have taken up the former hockey departments, provided that the entire BSG or the sponsored sports club in question did not change into a civil association:
- SG Union Koethen / BSG Stahl Koethen / BSG Motor Koethen → Cöthener HC 02 ;

Record champions of women and men in field hockey
Men's
- 15 Title: BSG Traktor Osternienburg (1972–1973, 1975–1986, 1989)
- 11 Title: SC Motor Jena / BSG Motor Carl Zeiss Jena (1955–1958, 1962–1963, 1965–1968, 1970)
- 6 Title: SG Union Köthen / BSG Stahl Köthen / BSG Motor Köthen (1949–1950, 1953–1954, 1988, 1990)
In the period from 1954 to 1969, the GDR maintained performance centers, the so-called sports clubs (SC) , etc. a. in Jena and Leipzig, which is clearly reflected in the results for the years 1955 to 1969. The practice of GDR sports funding was the delegation of the best athletes to the performance centers. After the 1968 Olympics Hockey lost classification as subsidized sport (see. Performance Sport decision of the GDR of 8 April 1969), the power centers were closed. In the period that followed from 1972, Osternienburg then dominated the GDR men's hockey, notably, although the community only has around 2100 inhabitants.
Ladies
- 14 titles: BSG Motor Zeiss Jena / SC Motor Jena / BSG Motor Carl Zeiss Jena (1954–1957, 1959–1961, 1963–1969)
- 11 Title: BSG Traktor Osternienburg (1978–1986, 1988, 1990)
- 9 Title: BSG Aufbau Südwest (1970–1977, 1987)
The promotion in performance centers described above and their closure (1965 for women) is also very clearly documented in field hockey for women. After the closure of the Jena performance center, the women of today's Leipziger SC were initially able to establish themselves as series champions, but were replaced by Easterienburg in 1978.
Record champions for women and men in indoor hockey
In the GDR (and in Austria), national indoor hockey championships were held for the first time worldwide in the 1950/1951 indoor season.
Men's
- 19 Title: BSG Traktor Osternienburg (1971–1974, 1976–1990)
- 5 titles: SC Motor Jena (1961–1962, 1964–1966)
- 3 Title: BSG Unity Center Leipzig (1953, 1955, 1975)
In the men's indoor hockey, too, teams from the performance centers were dominant until the second half of the 1960s, with the titles being quite evenly distributed between the Leipzig and Jena locations. From 1971 on, the men from Osternienburg clearly dominated the hall.
Ladies
- 12 titles: BSG Traktor Osternienburg (1973, 1977–1978, 1980, 1982–1988, 1990)
- 7 titles: BSG Motor Köthen (1953–1954, 1967, 1969, 1972, 1974–1975)
- 7 titles: BSG Motor Zeiss Jena / SC Motor Jena / BSG Motor Carl Zeiss Jena (1952, 1958–1961, 1964, 1968)
The effects of the performance centers in indoor hockey for women, where the women from Köthen were able to establish themselves permanently at the top of the table, cannot be observed quite as clearly. However, it is also clear here that after 1968 hockey lost a lot of importance in Jena. After all, the primacy of Easter egg hockey can also be observed here from 1973 onwards.
Record titles by clubs
- BSG Traktor Osternienburg: 57 titles
- BSG Motor Zeiss Jena / SC Motor Jena / BSG Motor Carl Zeiss Jena: 37 titles
- SG Union Koethen / BSG Stahl Koethen / BSG Motor Koethen: 13 titles
- BSG Aufbau Südwest Leipzig: 11 titles
- BSG Unit Center Leipzig: 9 titles
In view of the dominance of both men and women from Osternienburg, it is not surprising that they are the most successful club with a total of 57 national titles. Thanks to the existence of the high performance center until 1968, Jena follows in second place.
