history

Foundation of an association

The founding of the association went back to the building contractor Robert Heitkamp . In the winter of 1968/69, Heitkamp invited some personalities from Wanne-Eickel to discuss the establishment of a major sports club. The model for this was TSV Bayer 04 Leverkusen . Heitkamp expressed his concern for the German youth and was particularly critical of the 1968 movement . In order to achieve his goals, a new association should be founded.

DSC Wanne-Eickel was founded on October 5th, 1969. Only those invited by name were allowed to participate in the founding meeting. Within a few months, the DSC already had 17 departments, most of which were created through the addition of other clubs. The founding of the association was not welcomed by all citizens of Wanne-Eickel. The newly founded club was sometimes referred to as the "art association".

Robert Heitkamp was unanimously elected chairman. He also acted as a patron and pumped over a million marks into the association every year . He gradually withdrew in the early 1990s. In 2000, the individual departments split off from the DSC as independent associations; since then they have appeared as DSC Wanne-Eickel with the respective sport as an addition. The background to this was the footballer's financial difficulties after a tax audit .

Early Years (1971 to 1978)

When the DSC Wanne-Eickel was founded, there was still no football department. This was only founded in the summer of 1971 when TB 54 Eickel joined . At the same time, the DSC took over the starting position of the Eickeler in the then third-class Association League Westphalia II . In terms of sport, the team did not initially get beyond midfield and in 1973 could only just avoid relegation. A year later, the local rival Westfalia Herne rose in the association league. With the incorporation of Wanne-Eickels into Herne on January 1, 1975, the up to then "normal" games between the two clubs became particularly explosive. Both clubs fought for the championship in the Association League II in the 1974/75 season. With a 2-2 draw, Westfalia secured the relay victory in a direct duel and rose to the 2nd Bundesliga.

After another runner-up in 1977 behind Rot-Weiss Lüdenscheid , the sporting breakthrough came a year later. With five points ahead of SpVgg Erkenschwick , DSC secured the relay victory and met 1. FC Paderborn in the finals of the Westphalia Championship . DSC won the first leg in Wanne-Eickel 2-0 and won the title despite a 2-1 defeat in the second leg. In the following round of promotion , the Wanne-Eickeler under coach Günter Luttrop and SC Viktoria Köln prevailed against the north clubs VfL Wolfsburg and 1. SC Göttingen 05 and were promoted to the 2nd Bundesliga. In the same season, the DSC took part in the DFB Cup for the first time and was eliminated in the third round after a 2-0 draw against Werder Bremen .

In the 2nd Bundesliga (1978 to 1980)

The players remained amateurs after the rise, however , as the club management did without professionals or semi-professionals. Most of the players were employed by Heitkamp or its subsidiaries . Before the start of the season, the specialist magazine Kicker described the DSC as “number one relegated”. But the team was only in danger of relegation in the second half of the season. On the penultimate match day of the 1978/79 season , relegation was secured and the DSC was thirteenth at the end. In the second round of the DFB Cup , the Wanne-Eickeler failed at the then Bundesliga club VfL Bochum 2: 4 after extra time . At the end of the season, coach Günter Luttrop was replaced by Anton Burghardt . During the season Peter Wieczorek played three times for the German amateur national team .

In the second professional game in 1979/80 , the team always occupied midfield positions and was never in danger of relegation and came to surprising victories against renowned clubs such as VfL Osnabrück or Hannover 96 . In terms of sport, the class was given eleventh place. Nevertheless, the club voluntarily returned the license in April 1980, since "the financial commitment for the licensed football team is not justifiable in relation to the other sports branches". The "maintenance of the game operations of the licensed football team is not useful". The introduction of the single-track 2nd Bundesliga from 1981 onwards is often seen as the reason for the withdrawal. This nationwide league would exceed the financial means of patron Heitkamp. In addition to Heitkamp, ​​sports director Egon Große-Boymann was also sharply criticized by the fans and the media for the voluntary withdrawal.

Senior league years and black accounts (1980 to 2000)

With ten players from the previous year's team and a few junior staff, the DSC continued to play in what was then the third-class Oberliga Westfalen from 1980 . After several years in midfield, the team was runner-up in the 1984/85 season, three points behind SC Eintracht Hamm . The DSC thus qualified for the German amateur championship , where the team reached the finals via the stations Schwarz-Weiß Essen and SC Charlottenburg . The final in Bremen's Weser Stadium was lost 3-0 against the Werder Bremen amateurs .

In the following two years, the Wanne-Eickeler took fourth place each, before the shape curve pointed downwards at the end of the 1980s. In the meantime, the club was able to win the Westphalia Cup in 1986 with a 2-1 final victory over FC Gütersloh . In 1989, relegation could only be secured thanks to the promotion of Preußen Münster to the 2nd Bundesliga. A year later, the DSC lost the Westphalia Cup final against ASC Schöppingen with 0: 5. Finally, relegation followed in 1993 as third-last, as the Oberliga Westfalen was reduced from 18 to 16 teams. Although the reintroduction of the regional league led to an increased promotion a year later , the DSC missed the promotion as fifth and was thus only fifth class.

In 1996 the DSC was runner-up in the Association League II behind the DJK TuS Hordel . Four years later, the tax investigators carried out a tax audit at the DSC, because it was suspected that the club was paying its players black money and engaging in tax evasion . After the house was searched, the tax office demanded an additional payment of 250,000 marks. The board resigned as a whole, and DSC was only able to continue gaming operations after long negotiations.

Present (since 2000)

When the association did not find a new board in December 2001, the association was about to be dissolved. In terms of sport, the Wanne-Eickeler had to relegate to the state league two years later as the bottom of the table . With the fall into the sixth division, the DSC reached its low point. A development association was founded under the leadership of the entrepreneur Gerd Pieper . In 2005 the Wanne-Eickeler returned to the association league after a 6-0 win at ASC 09 Dortmund . In the following season, the team was promoted to champions of the Association League II.

However, the team did not rise to the league because the club did not submit the necessary licensing documents to the Football and Athletics Association of Westphalia . At the same time, the Borussen Front , a right-wing extremist fan group of Borussia Dortmund, regularly attended home games of DSC Wanne-Eickel. In the following two seasons it was enough for the DSC only to runner-up behind SG Wattenscheid 09 and TSG Sprockhövel , before the Wanne-Eickeler fell back into the middle of the table in the following seasons.

In the 2017/18 season the DSC was runner-up behind the Holzwickeder SC . Due to a 2: 3 defeat after extra time against SV Schermbeck , the return to the Oberliga Westfalen was missed. It was bitter for Wanne-Eickeler that a goal was not given in stoppage time because of offside .
