The Hamburg sports club Barmbek-Uhlenhorst from 1923 e. V. is a sports club from Hamburg based in the Barmbek-Nord district . In addition to football , for which the club is known nationwide, handball , gymnastics , gymnastics and volleyball are offered.

History of the club and the football department

The HSV Barmbek-Uhlenhorst was founded on October 15, 1923 , when the 150-member football division of the Hamburg gymnastics club Barmbeck-Uhlenhorst became independent from 1876 as part of the clean divorce .

Foundation phase

The club's own Wilhelm-Rupprecht sports field (see below) was inaugurated as early as 1925 . At this point the association had grown to 450 members, but was still overshadowed by its successful neighbor USC Paloma Hamburg . The first football team was able to advance to the highest Hamburg league in 1928. However, since it ceased operations after only one game day due to the football revolution , it was not possible to distinguish itself there. The following reform of the league system resulted in the re-classification in the second division. By 1935 the number of members decreased to 315. During the Second World War , the club, like many others, formed war sports associations (KSG) in order to be able to keep the game going. From 1943 to 1944, the club together with the postal SG Hamburg the KSG Post / BU Hamburg . This was then extended to KSG Alsterdorf on June 23, 1944 by SV St. Georg and SC Sperber Hamburg .

Post-war period and upswing

From 1946 the club operated again as HSV Barmbek-Uhlenhorst . After the inclusion of FC Rot-Weiß Hamburg in 1923 in 1949, the club decided to give itself the final name HSV Barmbek-Uhlenhorst from 1923 with effect from November 21, 1954 . In 1955 the footballers rose to the association league for the first time . The club stayed there for seven years before, after two second places in 1960 and 1961 in the 1961/62 season , a 2-1 win in the playoff against neighboring USC Paloma in front of 6,000 spectators, they were promoted to the Hamburg regional league . There they became Hamburg amateur champions straight away and qualified for the promotion round to the second-rate Regionalliga Nord . The 3-1 win against Leu Braunschweig in 1963 made it possible for them to be promoted to paid football for the first time. But at the end of the 1963/64 season followed as bottom of the table with only five wins of immediate relegation.

Years of second class

But only two years later, HSV Barmbek-Uhlenhorst under coach Edu Preuss was able to qualify with only three defeats this season in the Landesliga Hamburg and in the following qualifying round for the Regionalliga Nord . There the club established itself as the third force in Hamburg football behind the Bundesliga club Hamburger SV and FC St. Pauli, which also plays in the regional league . The outstanding youth work formed a basis. With over thirty youth teams, HSV Barmbek-Uhlenhorst had the second largest youth division of a German football club in the 1960s. But the financial support from Hermann Sanne, who had turned a small scrap dealership into a flourishing waste disposal company, was an essential element for the company's success. Among other things, it made it possible to equip their own stadium with a grass pitch.

The association caused increasing enthusiasm among the Hamburg audience. While in the first season in 1966/67 only 1,906 spectators came to the home games on the Sperber- Platz in Alsterdorf on average , after the return to their own place in 1969/70 it was already 3,676.

Sponsor Sanne had set the goal of replacing FC St. Pauli as the second force in Hamburg football. When the entire team resigned during the difficult 1967/68 season, he used this as an opportunity and lured numerous experienced players to Barmbek, including 14-time international Willi Giesemann and the second goalkeeper of Hamburger SV , Erhard Schwerin .

When the club, which was strengthened in this way, even played for promotion to the Bundesliga in 1970/71 and ended up in fifth place for the first time in the top third of the table, as many as 4,053 spectators came. Despite the growing audience response and financial support, the structures remained unprofessional. Comradeship and solidarity came first. Instead of taking the bus, the players had to drive to the away games in their own cars. After the departure of trainer Edu Preuß, Reinhold Ertel took over the training in 1971 . Despite the change of Klaus Fock , who moved to the Belgian first division club KFC Beeringen for the record fee of 150,000 DM , the club remained successful. However, two fifth and even a fourth place in the table could not prevent the falling audience interest.

Reinforced by the eleven-time national player Gert "Charly" Dörfel , he qualified for the newly created 2nd Bundesliga North in 1974 . Despite great doubts, the club's management decided to tackle the risk of the 2nd Bundesliga. For example, you could not play on your own pitch in Barmbek because the safety requirements were not met, but had to move to Rothenbaum .

The season ended in disaster: As bottom of the table not only was relegation to the Amateur Oberliga Nord , but the club also had a debt of 500,000 DM. The Senate refused to give a guarantee due to the city's financial problems. The club was saved by the unprecedented willingness of the population and celebrities to donate: The "big" SV competed in a friendly game, the Ernst-Deutsch-Theater donated the proceeds from two performances, and as a highlight, 10,000 long-playing records Stars sing for BU were made on which u. a. Heino , Gitte , Costa Cordalis and Roberto Blanco can be heard.

Decline and rise

The club survived financially, but the crash into lower football regions could not be prevented. At the end of the 1980/81 season, relegation to the fourth division of the Hamburg Association League was clear and another year later, relegation followed, this time to the fifth division national league . In the course of the 1980s, the club even rose to the sixth-class District League North. After that, the club played mainly in the association league or the state league; at the end of the 2003/04 season he was surprisingly able to qualify for the newly created Oberliga Nord . After a year, BU had to just relegate. Nevertheless, the season was considered a success, because the new league had to deal with the top teams from the two upper leagues Schleswig-Holstein / Hamburg and Lower Saxony / Bremen. Until 2011, BU played in the fifth-class Oberliga Hamburg , then rose to the Landesliga Hansa for a year and, after being promoted again, has been back in the Oberliga Hamburg since the 2012/13 season.

DFB Cup

BU reached the first main round of the DFB Cup five times in its club history , but only in 1975 the second round could be reached.

In the 1972/73 season , FC Bayern Munich was drawn to the Barmbekern. In front of a record crowd of 12,000 spectators at Rothenbaum , the first leg was lost 4-1 (Greif scored the consolation goal for BU), the second leg gave the blue-yellows a straight 7-0 defeat at the Munich Olympic Stadium . In 1973/74 KSV Hessen Kassel had to be defeated 1: 2 in the Auestadion there. In the following year ( 1974/75 ) BU overtook the first round for the third time in a row, this time as a second division. Against the lower-class sports fans Siegen there was a 1: 2 defeat at the "Anfield", as Wilhelm-Rupprecht-Platz was called in a loving exaggeration. The 1975/76 cup season was somewhat more successful . In the first main round the amateurs of VfB Stuttgart were successful 3-1. The end then followed in the second main round with a home defeat against Hassia Bingen 2: 3 n.V. With a 2-0 final win in the Oddset Cup against SC Condor in the Hoheluft stadium , HSV Barmbek-Uhlenhorst qualified on 25 May 2015 for the DFB-Pokal 2015/16 . On August 9, 2015, he retired in the first main round against the Bundesliga relegated Sport-Club Freiburg with 0: 5.

Special

Goalkeeper Klaus Hinrich Müller scored a goal of the extraordinary kind on May 25, 1976 in the point game against Preußen Hameln . With a tee he carried the leather over a distance of 95 meters over the guest keeper into the Hamelin goal.

Defender Paul Biege scored an unusual own goal. When goalkeeper Müller threw him the ball from 30 meters and Biege did not react immediately, he was ruffled by Müller. Biege then furiously threw the ball over his goalkeeper into his own net.

Known players

Stadion

The home of HSV Barmbek-Uhlenhorst was Wilhelm-Rupprecht-Platz in Steilshooper Straße 210 in Hamburg-Barmbek for about 90 years before it was demolished in 2015. From 2016, the most important games will be played in the newly built Dieselstraße stadium at Dieselstraße 6. The office of the association has been located there since then. Another venue is the Langenfort sports complex, which is also located in the Hamburg-Barmbek district.

Wilhelm-Rupprecht-Platz

The Wilhelm Rupprecht Square was opened 1925th The stadium offered 7,000 spectators, including 1,000 uncovered seats. It was named after the founding chairman Wilhelm Rupprecht (1923–1938 chairman). Originally, the area on Steilshooper Straße belonged to the Hamburg gymnastics club Barmbeck-Uhlenhorst 1876 . But after the football department had made its own business in 1923 as part of the “clean separation” between gymnastics and sport, the facility was transferred to the new club, which inaugurated it on August 30, 1925 with a game against Eimsbütteler TV .

However, since it was a grand pitch , HSV Barmbek-Uhlenhorst had to play its home games in a stadium with a grass pitch after being promoted to the Regionalliga Nord . In 1963/64 they played in the Jahn-Kampfbahn in the city park, which could hold 10,000 spectators. After rising again in the 1966/67 season, the club initially moved to the Sperber- Platz in Alsterdorf until the grass pitch in its own stadium was inaugurated on August 22, 1967. The attendance record was set at the opening game against Hamburger SV on that day : 7,000 spectators saw Andreas Brehme, the six-year-old boy, hand over the club pennant to Uwe Seeler .

After the introduction of the 2nd Bundesliga North , BU had to play in the Hamburger SV stadium at Rothenbaum in the 1974/75 season , as Wilhelm-Rupprecht-Platz was considered too small and, due to the lack of a fence, too unsafe. The clubhouse and Wilhelm-Rupprecht-Platz served as the crime scene backdrop for the Tatort episode. Trimmel was sent off in 1973.

At the start of the 2015/16 season of the Hamburg Oberliga, the last game took place on July 31, 2015 at the Barmbeker "Anfield". In front of 2,700 spectators, the blue and yellow beat their city rivals Altona 93 3-0. Prominent onlookers were HSV idol Uwe Seeler and Lotto King Karl , who gave a “farewell concert” after the game. The demolition took place because the stadium area and the adjoining area of ​​the opera fund as well as further allotment garden areas were needed for the construction of houses. Until the completion of the new venue in February 2016, BU played its home games on the VfL 93 pitch on Borgweg.

Wilhelm-Rupprecht-Platz (2014)

Dieselstrasse Stadium

Since 2016, the new home of HSV Barmbek-Uhlenhorst has been the Dieselstraße stadium , which is located on an area between Dieselstraße and Bramfelder Straße south of the underground line. It holds around 2000 spectators and includes, among other things, a covered grandstand for 300 visitors. The playing surface is artificial turf, which, according to the club, is "a tad longer than the one on Rupprechtplatz, but just as wide". Based on the nickname of Wilhelm-Rupprecht-Platz , the stadium is also referred to as Anfield 2.0 by the club and in the press .

The first game in the stadium was a test match against VfL 93 as a thank you for allowing BU to use their place on Borgweg in the previous months and was won 3-0 by HSV Barmbek-Uhlenhorst. However, the official opening of the entire facility did not take place until six months later with a blitz tournament against the teams of SC Victoria and TuS Hartenholm .

Handball

The handball players of HSV Barmbek-Uhlenhorst are part of HG Hamburg-Barmbek , which also includes SC Urania Hamburg and USC Paloma Hamburg . The men currently play in the third division north. The men won the Hamburg Cup for the fourth time in a row in 2017.
