history
The Hallesche Fußball-Club Wacker 1900 e. V. was founded in 1900 and belonged to the Association of Central German Ball Game Clubs and was thus allowed to take part in the Central German football championship. The Halle residents won this competition for the first time in 1921 and qualified for the German football championship in 1920/21 . In the quarter-finals, the team met the United Breslauer Sportfreunde and defeated the Sportfreunde in Sportpark Grüneiche in Breslau 2-1. In the semifinals they met the eventual German champions 1. FC Nürnberg in the stadium am Zoo in Halle , which they lost 1: 5. In 1928 FC Wacker Halle won the Central German soccer championship again and was thus allowed to take part in the German soccer championship 1927/28 . In the stadium at the zoo in Halle they lost 3-0 to Bayern Munich .
After the establishment of the Gauligen as the top division, FC Wacker Halle from then on played in the Gauliga Mitte . In the first Gauliga season, the 1933/34 season , the Halle residents won the Gauliga ahead of SV 08 Steinach . By winning the Gauliga Mitte, the team qualified for the German soccer championship 1933/34 . In the preliminary round they met Dresdner SC , Borussia Fulda and 1. FC Nürnberg . Of the six games, the team from Halle could only win the home game against Fulda on the local Wacker-Platz on Dessauer Straße. As bottom of the table they were eliminated from the competition.
In the 1934/35 season they narrowly missed winning the Gauliga Mitte again behind 1. SV Jena . After FC Wacker had narrowly avoided relegation in the 1935/36 season , they rose in the 1936/37 season as penultimate from the Gauliga middle. The club did not succeed in advancing to the Gauliga Mitte and after the end of the Second World War , FC Wacker Halle was dissolved.
