Championship course

After 1956 and 1957, the men of SC Empor Rostock won the indoor title for the third time. The decision had already been made one match day before the end of the league season. Last year's champions SC Dynamo Berlin were three points behind and could no longer catch up with Rostock . Although SC Empor had to complete the three difficult away games against the two Leipzig teams SC Leipzig and SC DHfK Leipzig as well as against Wismut Aue in the second half of the season, he got five points from these encounters and won against the defending champions in his own hall. The Rostockers were characterized by their good athletic condition, had an excellent goalkeeper in Klaus Prüsse and an accurate goal scorer in Reiner Ganschow . In the last championship game, which was won against SC Magdeburg with 30:16, the following team played:

Klaus Prüsse (1 goal) - Klaus Langhoff (6), Muhss, Georg Bolitschew (5), Gerhard Gernhöfer (1), Heinz Strauch (4), Reiner Ganschow (13), Obermayer, Schneider, Beu.

Behind last year's champions, who had been dethroned, the two Leipzig clubs SC and DHfK came third and fourth, followed by the best company sports community , the BSG Wismut Aue. The newcomer BSG Chemie Premnitz never reached league level and had to relegate immediately after 16 defeats. The second relegated team was determined in a play-off between the tied teams Motor Eisenach and ZAB Dessau . Promoted Motor Eisenach achieved relegation with a 22:20 win in Premnitz .
