The Sportfreunde Hamborn 07 e. V. are a sports club from Hamborn , a district in the north of Duisburg . The club is particularly known for its football and handball department and was the German field handball champion in 1958 . The club's footballers made it to the semi-finals for the DFB Cup in 1961 .

Creation and mergers

Today's Sportfreunde Hamborn 07 was created in 1954 from the merger of the predecessor clubs SV Hamborn 07 and SV Sportfreunde Hamborn . The SV Hamborn 07 was created in 1911 from the merger of the Ballspiel-Club Hamborn, founded in 1903, with the Spielverein 07 Marxloh , founded in 1907 . The year was taken over by the Marxloher Verein, as BC Hamborn did not have a year in its name. The oldest forerunner of today's club, however, was TV Rheinlands Eiche , founded in Bruckhausen in 1899 , which was merged into what was then SV Sportfreunde August-Thyssen-Hütte in 1935 , which in turn was not until 1934 from the merger of SV Sportfreunde 1920 with the August-Thyssen-Hütte factory club was created. As a result of this merger, the club was known as TSV Sportfreunde August-Thyssen-Hütte until 1938 and after the departure of the hut as sponsor, Gymnastics and Sportfreunde Hamborn 99/20 for four years . In 1942 the TuSF called themselves back to SV Sportfreunde Hamborn . In 1954 the SV Sportfreunde and SV Hamborn 07 merged to form today's club, whereby the year of SV Hamborn 07 was used and SV Sportfreunde did not have a year at the time of the merger.

Venues

From 1913 to 1954, the venue for the footballers of SV Hamborn 07 was initially on Buschstrasse . From August 1954 to December 1970 the Löwen played in the August Thyssen Stadium on Franz-Lenze-Strasse in Bruckhausen on the grounds of the August Thyssen hut. After the demolition of this stadium, in the place of which a parking lot and a training center for Thyssen AG were built, the Hamborner home games first took place in the Marxloh Schwelgernstadion , before the Black and Yellows were able to move to their newly built club's own facility in Im Holtkamp in Obermarxloh in 1978 has an official capacity of 5,000 seats. The covered grandstand has 500 seats, the rest are uncovered standing stands. This makes the Holtkamp the sports facility with the smallest capacity of all previous home venues in the 07 kicker.

After the field had to give way to the hall, the venue for the handball players was the Rhein-Ruhr-Halle, which was rebuilt in 1975. The lions played there until the mid-80s, before they moved to the current lion cage on Hamborner Strasse.

Club colors and coat of arms

The club colors of Hamborn 07 are black and yellow, in the coat of arms there is a black eagle on a yellow background, but the Hamborns are called "the lions", because the Bergische Löwe is depicted in the earlier Hamborn city coat of arms, whose representation is based on a signet ring, which an abbot of the Hamborner monastery from the Bergisch region had used in the 18th century. Hamborn himself had never belonged to Berg, but mostly to Cleve .

Handball

After the TV Rheinlands Eiche and later the TSV August-Thyssen-Hütte had already played in the district class (II. League) at the end of the 1930s, Hamborn 07 was one of the formative clubs in field handball on the Lower Rhine after 1950. From 1950/51 until the introduction of the Bundesliga, the Löwen played continuously in the Oberliga as the top division for 16 years and became German champions in the 1958 championship round with a 10: 9 in the final against VfL Wolfsburg . In 1960 the Lions won the West German Championship and in 1955, 1958 and 1959 the title on the Lower Rhine. In 1952 and 1955 they were in the final of the Niederrhein Cup, which was held until 1956. The head of the successful team and their best-known player was player-coach Walter Schädlich , who became world champion twice with the national team at the 1952 World Cup and again in 1955 and was also the DHB's record national field handball player.

After the Löwen had missed the direct qualification for the newly introduced Bundesliga by one goal (first leg A 9:18 / second leg H 12: 4) in the quarter-finals of the West German Championship against Grün-Weiß Dankersen (the four semi-finalists qualified immediately), they lost the two final games of the consolation round of the quarter-final losers for fifth and last place of the Wesstdeustchen handball association against TuS Wellinghofen . After two years in the second division, however, he was promoted in 1968 by winning the West German championship. The Bundesliga team around Jürgen Ecker, Winfried Terjung, Jochen Goetzke, Winfried Hetzel and Dieter Stahl held their own in the North Group in the top division until the last season in 1973 , in this last season as the HSG Westende / Hamborn 07 syndicate . After the abolition of the Bundesliga, the Hamborner team came second twice in the Regional League West, which was then the highest division, and thus narrowly missed participation in the finals for the West German and German championships. After the end of the 1975 summer season, regular play on the large field was discontinued.

In indoor handball, the "lions" could no longer build on the club's success on the large field. In 1974, the team rose to the Oberliga Niederrhein for the first time and, as second in the table behind TV Angermund, made it into the Regionalliga West, which was the second highest division until the 2nd Bundesliga was introduced in 1981. Until 1985 and again in the playing years 1987/88 and 1989/90, the first men's team played in the northern relay of this two-part league. After the Hamborner had to relegate from the league in 1993, a sporting decline followed, which resulted in a fall in the district class. After a long period of regeneration, at the end of the 2006/07 season, after 14 years of lower class, he was promoted to the Oberliga Niederrhein. After that, the "Löwen" played for the rise several times, but always just missed it. Most recently, a goal was missing against TV Aldekerk in 2010.

The women belonged to the upper league at times, but subsequently also played in the Rhine-Ruhr district league. At the end of the 2009/10 season, the women were promoted to the national league. In the 2011/12 season there was a further rise of the women and the women reserve in the association league and district league. In the 2014/2015 season the women started in the temporary syndicate, the SG OSC Löwen Duisburg in the association league - after leaving the SG as Hamborn 07 then in the regional league group 3. The female A-youth started in the 2019 / 2020 for the first time in the Regionalliga (North Rhine League).

In 2013, the Hamborn name temporarily disappeared from the handball world when the club entered into a syndicate with local rivals OSC Rheinhausen on the left bank of the Rhine under the name "SG OSC Löwen Duisburg" . Hamborn 07 provided the game rights for the second team of the SG in the Oberliga Niederrhein, the OSC Rheinhausen for the first team in the third division. The league team was withdrawn in the first season. After two seasons, at the end of which the 1st team of the SG was relegated from the 3rd division to the upper division, Hamborn 07 left the syndicate again. Since the game rights for the SG teams remained completely with the SG, Hamborn 07 made a new start in the Rhein-Ruhr district league with a men's team for the 2015/16 season. In 2017 he was promoted to the district league (= 8th league).

Soccer

The Hamborner footballers belonged to the top clubs in the Ruhr area from the 1930s . In 1933 they took part in the finals for the West German championship for the first time, but failed there at FC Schalke 04 . But they were among the founding members of the new first-class Gauliga Niederrhein . In the first season they finished third, one point behind champions VfL Benrath and Fortuna Düsseldorf . For the most part, the Hamborner had to give way to these two clubs in the next few years before they could win the championship in the Lower Rhine district for the first time in 1941/42 . Hamborn 07 benefited from the Second World War , as the best Hamborn players were indispensable for the war industry. As Niederrheinmeister, Hamborn 07 met Werder Bremen in qualifying for the final round of the German championship . After the 1: 1 after extra time in their own stadium in front of 20,000 spectators, Hamborn was eliminated in the replay in Bremen by a 1: 5 defeat. From 1943 07 merged with local rivals Union 02 Hamborn to form KSG 07 / Union Hamborn . After a joint ninth place in 1943/44, the 1944/45 season was discontinued in September 1944 due to the war.

On December 26, 1952, the DFB-Pokal game at FC St. Pauli in Hamburg's Millerntor Stadium was the first football game in the history of German television to be broadcast directly . The Hamborner won 4: 3. In the 1950s and 1960s, the Hamborner played as an elevator team several times in the major league and 2nd division . In 1957, the then national handball player Walter Schädlich was also the coach of the soccer team in a double function, which was promoted to the Oberliga West with him. In 1961, they narrowly missed the DFB Cup final when they lost 2-1 to 1. FC Kaiserslautern in the semifinals . This was followed by an intermittent crash into the district league, before it went up again in the late 1970s.

The club experienced its last heyday in the mid-1980s, when the league games against Rot-Weiss Essen or local rivals MSV Duisburg were held in front of more than 10,000 spectators in the Wedau Stadium. In 1987 they reached the final of the Niederrhein Cup , in which they lost to Black and White Essen 3: 5. Mid-1990 was the association, which by this time back to the Landesliga Niederrhein had slipped, once known when he was in the German magazine private television by Friedrich Küppersbusch sponsored and in each issue one by Tom Theunissen sent authored a short report on the club has been. The highlight was a new edition of the game against FC St. Pauli on WDR television on January 19, 1997 . The former Bundesliga professional and coach Horst Heese , who had played for Hamborner before moving to the Bundesliga , acted as co-commentator .

In 2007, the club had to accept relegation from the Niederrhein Association League. In 2008 he was relegated to the district league. In 2009 the Hamborner won the championship title of the district league with 21 points ahead of the second place in the table and only one defeat for the season and thus managed the direct way back to the now seventh-class regional league. In 2011 he was promoted to the Lower Rhine League . At the end of the 2011/12 season, the Lions qualified for the newly created Oberliga Niederrhein . From this division, however, the club rose immediately from bottom of the table in the state league and was passed through to the district league in 2014. The ex-professional footballer Dietmar Schacht (MSV Duisburg, Schalke 04) and DFB football teacher has been training the first team since July 1, 2015 and is also active as the sports director. Under Schacht, he was promoted back to the national league in 2017.
