Sports

Sport has a long tradition in Gunningen. In 1901 there was great interest in a gymnastics community. With that the first gymnastics club was founded and sport was started in a self-built "wooden barracks". After the first successes were achieved in 1925, the merger with the sports club to form the gymnastics and sports club (TSV) Gunningen was announced a year later. Since the 1950s there has been a football team almost continuously, which has occasionally achieved successes. The new sports field was opened in 1972. Today the youth teams play as a game community "Baar" with the clubs Durchhausen, Tuningen and Weigheim, the men play together with Durchhausen and Seitingen as SGM Durchhausen / Gunningen and SGM Durchhausen / Gunningen / Seitingen II.
