The BSG Einheit Rostock was a German company sports association from Rostock , whose soccer section existed until 1969. The home of the unit was the Rostock Volksstadion . The most successful division was the hockey section, which became East German hockey champions in 1952 .

Football section

Rostock unit was founded in 1945 under the name SG Rostock-Süd . Rostock-Süd played from 1947 for two seasons in the Mecklenburg-Ost regional league, which at that time was the top division in the Soviet occupation zone alongside other regional leagues . In 1950 the sports community was transformed into the BSG unit Rostock . The city administration of Rostock supported the company sports association as a sponsoring company , the BSG was run like all teams of the central sports association state administration under the name "unit".

With the dissolution of the federal states and the simultaneous formation of the Rostock district , Einheit Rostock became a founding member of the third -rate Rostock district soccer league in 1952 . In the opening season, Einheit Rostock became district champion, but the Mecklenburgers, together with the district league rivals Motor Stralsund and Vorwärts Rostock, did not achieve promotion to the newly established II. GDR league until 1957. In the II. GDR league, Einheit started with a fourth place, but had to leave the third division again in 1959, just behind Chemie Schmöckwitz .

Due to the good results in the district cup competitions , unit Rostock was able to qualify eight times for the GDR-wide FDGB cup competition. In 1956, 1959 and 1962 the second cup round was reached. The Rostockers played a total of eleven games for the GDR soccer cup.

The district league held unit Rostock until 1966. Analogous to unit Spremberg or unit Brandenburg , the financially rather poorly funded sports association unit in Rostock was not able to keep the BSG permanently in higher leagues. In 1969 the game was stopped, the team joined Motor Rostock .
