The founding years as a gymnastics club (1846–1899)

The club was founded after the lifting of the gymnastics ban in 1842, like many other clubs in what was then the Kingdom of Württemberg, on August 14, 1846 as the gymnastics community in Heidenheim . The statutes of that time, based on Friedrich Wilhelm Klumpp , provided for fines in the event of unexcused absence - in the event of repetition, exclusion from the association. By gymnastics one understood physical exercises with and without equipment including fencing. The so-called “ mental gymnastics ” by the first chairman, with lectures and stories, played an important role in strengthening the sense of community . A year before the Swabian Gymnastics Association was founded on May 1, 1848, a merger with eight neighboring gymnastics communities was decided. The revolutionary events , located in occurred between March 1848 and July 1849 the German Confederation occurred, had an impact on the Turn communities from which parts in vigilante groups involved in armed conflicts. The persecution of gymnasts and emigration due to poor harvests led to the dissolution of the gymnastics community on April 19, 1852 . Most of the alumni met on March 30, 1862 to re-establish the company. The development was repeatedly disrupted by conflicts such as the German War of 1866, during which the youth armed forces and gymnastics community were united in Heidenheim . After a year, the gymnastics community was separated from the weir.

In 1872 the name was changed to Turnverein Heidenheim . From 1880 onwards, the factory owner and board member Albert Hartmann drove the planning and construction of the first gymnasium . On April 26, 1892, the pre-gymnastics club was brought back to life. It developed into the core of the gymnastics club. Only someone who successfully passed exams in front of strict judges could become a gymnast.

Spin-off tendencies and three gymnastics clubs (1900-1919)

The years from 1900 to the beginning of the First World War increased the standard of living of the population due to the general upswing and created a new self-confidence. However, there were disputes within the association regarding the ideology and the social structure. This led to the fact that merchants , officers and higher royal Württemberg officials remained in the gymnastics club Heidenheim and the craftsmen , journeymen , employees and the lower ranks of soldiers orientated themselves differently.

Wrestlers, boxers, weightlifters, track and field athletes and the round weight groups of the Heidenheim gymnastics club founded the AthletenClub Hellenstein in the spring of 1900 .

The general meeting of the gymnastics club in Heidenheim decided on March 18, 1903, after several attempts, to include women's gymnastics in the club's exercise plan. On the Gauturntag on February 26, 1905, it was announced that the ladies' squad with 10 gymnasts would be included. The inauguration of the public baths on Marienstraße on October 16, 1904 led to the gymnastics club drifting further apart. The Heidenheim swimming club was founded on November 18, 1904. An important event was the organization of the 37th district gymnastics festival from August 4 to 6, 1906 with 4500 participants from 122 clubs.

The Turnerbund Heidenheim resigned from the German Workers' Gymnastics Association on August 6, 1904 and joined the German Gymnastics Association .

The workers gymnastics club Heidenheim founded on 25 September 1904 by the absent members of the Assembly of August 6, 1904. Pressures of athletes Club savings Tania Heidenheim to a merger was because of the fear that an association might arise in the club, not met (meeting of June 24, 1906).

In 1904, Heidenheim had three gymnastics clubs, which, in addition to the athletes' club, all claimed the use of the Olgaturnhalle. The Turnerbund Heidenheim built its own “Gym Jahn” in Talstrasse with its own funds and celebrated the inauguration on May 17, 1908 at an entrance price of 90 pfennigs . On October 24, 1911, another gymnasium was inaugurated at the east school with the support of the Heidenheim municipal council .

On July 8, 1911, a football department was founded within the Heidenheim gymnastics club . Previously, a position against football had been taken with great severity:

"This sport has a devastating effect on the character."

- Gustav Wiedenmann, Eugen Stehle, Karl Matti : Günther Paas: Peace, War and New Beginning, 1905–1924 (Volume IV) , p. 79.

On March 8, 1919, the castle workers gymnastics club Heidenheim the Turnerbund Heidenheim a member of the Workers Gymnastics Federation (ATB), later on, Workers Sports and Gymnastics Union was.

Development into a multi-disciplinary sports club and mergers (1920–1971)

In 1920 the gymnastics club Heidenheim was divided into boys, junior, gymnast and men's departments. Fistball , athletics , swimming and handball departments were newly established.

In 1922, before the organizational separation between football and other modern sports on the one hand and gymnasts on the other, there was a conflict of interests between gymnasts and footballers in Germany in 1923 and 1924 . The club's gymnastics council wanted the footballers to take part in the rounds of the German Gymnastics Association, while the football department wanted to continue to play in the A-class of the South German Football Association . The football department then became independent on August 21, 1922 as a club for lawn sports 1911 Heidenheim . The Heidenheim gymnastics club closed the previous playground at Sonneneck to the new club. Finally, a new playground was found in Clichystrasse. In 1936, the VfR Heidenheim merged , which was formed from the Voith engineer Jac. The club for movement games Heidenheim , founded in March 16, 1910 , emerged with the swimming club 04 Heidenheim, founded in 1904, to become the club for physical exercises 1904 e. V. Heidenheim . After the war, the swimmers separated from VfL and re-established the swimming club 04 . The VfL changed it in his club name, the date referring to the founding of the football department within the gymnastics club on July 8 1911th

The Turnerbund Heidenheim was banned in 1933 like all workers' sports clubs.

On July 13, 1935, the Heidenheim gymnastics club merged with the Heidenheim game club , which had emerged from the Catholic youth movement . On April 3, 1937, TV merged with the 1. Heidenheim sports club , which, according to a membership application on January 17, 1920, was renamed by the Hellenstein Athletes' Club , which was founded in 1900 , and was henceforth called Turn- und Sportverein 1846 eV Heidenheim . The connection of another club to the gymnastics and sports club did not go smoothly. The ice skating and roller sports club 1879 e. V. , the successor to the ice skating club in 1879 , decided to join the TSV on July 22, 1937. Due to a lack of majorities, only individual members changed.

After the revival of the Turnerbund Heidenheim in 1945, it merged with the TSV 1846 Heidenheim to form the Turn- und Sportbund 1846 e. V. Heidenheim with the departments gymnastics, soccer, swimming, women's sports, music, handball, ice skating and roller skating as well as light and heavy athletics. On 18 October 1949, the fencing division was after canceling the fencing ban reactivated.

Merger to form HSB in 1846 and years together (1972-2006)

Hanns Rau and his fellow board members saw the need to expand the membership base at the end of the 1960s due to the developments towards partially financed competitive sport . Therefore, the first contacts to the Verein für Leibesübungen 1911 e. V. linked. The merger between TSB (with the then existing departments of basketball, boxing, budo, fencing, gymnastics, handball, athletics, table tennis, gymnastics and volleyball) and VfL Heidenheim (with badminton, soccer, hockey, bounce ball and table tennis) finally came into being on 27 May 1972 today's Heidenheimer Sportbund 1846 e. V. Heidenheim . This led to the merger of the footballers and gymnasts, who were badly separated in 1922. The club has been a founding member of the Freiburger Kreis , a kind of self-help working group of the largest German sports clubs , since 1975 . NOK President Willi Daume and Federal Minister Hans Matthöfer were guests of honor at the German Modern Pentathlon Championships in 1976. In 1977 the 54th Swabian State Gymnastics Festival was successfully held with 13,000 participants. In 1989 the association was awarded the Green Ribbon .

HSB 1846 without football department (since 2007)

On January 1, 2007, the football department decided to split off from Heidenheimer SB as a legally independent club. 1. FC Heidenheim took over the existing structures. The separation had become necessary because the entire club could hardly meet requirements in the licensing process of the DFB for the desired regional league . In particular, the demands to check the economic performance of the association overwhelmed the voluntary structures of the other departments.

As part of the “ Integration through Sport ” offer of the German Olympic Sports Confederation , the HSB is a recognized support club. The association operates a sports day-care center . On March 17, 1996, the entire club received the sports badge from the Federal President .

Elite sport

Top sport is defined here in the sense of competitive sport and based on the determination of the BMI, among other things, through success in competitions on a global level ( HSB Olympic participant ). This is particularly noteworthy for a medium-sized center like Heidenheim, since the push-pull factors are an important factor there. Arnd Schmitt , Birgit Beyer and Dagmar Rehak are examples of top athletes who were trained at the HSB and who achieved their greatest success in dressing other clubs, while the state performance centers are attractive to many outside athletes. Additional features are the implementation of international events and the designation as a base.

baseball

Simon Gühring lands a basehit in the quarterfinals of the German baseball championship 2008 between the Heideköpf and Dortmund Wanderers .

The baseball department has existed since 1992. In 2000, the company was promoted to the baseball league ( player squad ). The Heideköpfe became German champions in 2009, 2015, 2017, 2019 and 2020 and German runners-up in 2010 and 2014. The most recent major international success was the victory at the CEB Cup in 2019 . The home ground is the HellensteinEnergie-Ballpark, in which the state performance center and the “regional top-class baseball sports center in Baden-Württemberg” are located and where the European baseball championships (2010) took place. In 2020 the department was awarded the Green Ribbon.

Simon Gühring and Martin Dewald were part of the German squad for the last baseball world championship in Panama in 2011 .

On April 17, 1911, the then TV Heidenheim was mentioned as a founding member of the Association of Swabian Fechter Riegen of the gymnastics communities , with fencing being practiced in Heidenheim as early as 1847. In May 1953 Paul Gnaier initiated the Heidenheimer Pokal Degen challenge award . In 1961, the first European Cup for fencing club teams was held at the same time, thus establishing the Heidenheim Fechtertage . These references led six club members to the organizing committee of the Olympic Games in Munich 1972 (among others Paul Gnaier and Oskar Muck ). The decisive impulses for sustainable development were the classification of Heidenheim as a state performance center (1970), as a federal fencing base (1980) next to Bonn and Tauberbischofsheim as well as the establishment of the partial sports boarding school Modell Heidenheim (1979) in cooperation with the Max-Planck-Gymnasium . After the serial successes of the Gnaier / Rompza era in the 1950s and 60s, the framework conditions contributed to the fact that German individual and team titles have been won almost continuously since 1987, especially in epee fencing. In 1993 the women's epee team won the European Cup.

In 1997 the department was awarded the Green Ribbon.

The club's own archive records the first entry about the sport of handball in the log books of the gymnastics club on October 27, 1895, that is, 30 years before the first international field handball match against Austria on September 13, 1925. As Oberliga runner-up in the 1967/1968 season At that time the team was on the move to the top German league and had with Manhart Sigler , a player from their own youth, the only national player in the ranks so far. In the 1981/1982 season, the rise in the league succeeded again. With Gerd Handerer, the junior national goalkeeper from VfL Günzburg , and left-hander Thomas Engelhardt from FA Göppingen, coach Hans Klein was able to integrate two bearers of hope. The team was able to hold its own in the highest Württemberg league for three years.

In the 2020/21 season, the first team will play in the district league.

hockey

In the winter of 1947/48, plans were forged whether to found a club of its own or join VfL Heidenheim - which ultimately happened. In 1948 the first hockey games were played against the second team of SSV Ulm and against Normannia Gmünd . In the early years of indoor hockey, the department was in charge of defining rules and dimensions of the pitch. In 1948, games and training started on a grass-slag-sand field in Erchenstrasse.

The volleyball department experienced its most successful period in the 1970s. A women's team from the Schillergymnasium sponsored by the association made it to the top division in 1975.

In the 2020/21 season, two mixed teams play in the District League East.

Cross-departmental coordination of youth activities in addition to the selected sport became necessary. In 1960 the first youth leader was appointed. On March 5, 1971, the membership of the youth leader on the board was determined and on May 8, 1992 a separate account management was decided. The HSB youth has been supported by the Hugo Rupf Foundation since 1978 . In 2016, the Children on the Move department celebrated 25 years of the Heidenheim sports theater and 20 years of reliable primary school. In 2007 the play “Herzsprung” of the sports theater was selected to represent the state of Baden-Württemberg at the school theater . Green ribbons for the entire club (1989) and the two top sport departments (1997 and 2020) confirm the path taken to promote young talent.

Voith Arena

In 1970 the city of Heidenheim decided to build a football and athletics stadium on the Schlossberg. The Albstadion was inaugurated a year later. In 1972, the football department played its first game in the amateur league of Northern Württemberg there. In July 1973 the grandstand - the only one for more than 30 years - was inaugurated. There was a special moment at the junior athletics international competition BRD - France (1978) with the hammer throw - world record by Karl-Hans Riehm . After the Heidenheim footballers were promoted to the Oberliga (2004) and Regionalliga (2009), the Albstadion had to be rebuilt.

On April 25, 1969, urgently needed renovations and additions were completed. In 1975 the budo department got a judo hall with a dojo . The two-field tennis hall was inaugurated on September 17, 1980.

Sparkasse Sports Park

On June 2, 1912, the playground of the football department of the Heidenheim gymnastics club at the Ziegler sawmill was opened in the game against the Neu-Ulm gymnastics club . Under the aegis of Hanns Rau, then chairman of TSB 1846 , and Lord Mayor Elmar Doch , the first club sports hall was built on Jahnplatz and inaugurated on April 25, 1969. After Clichyplatz was released for residential development, an extension at Jahnplatz was essential. After one year of construction work, the inauguration of the sand-filled artificial turf pitch with floodlights was celebrated on September 21, 1997. 2010 was completely renewed. At the joint press conference on March 17th, Sparkasse Director Bögerl explained the commitment and the acquisition of the naming rights.

Hellenstein Energy Ball Park

After intermittent irritations with other clubs and departments, the ball park, which was so urgently needed with the rapid rise of the Heideköpfe, was opened in June 1999. The arena with lawn and a sand arch in the infield has a capacity of 2,500 seats, of which 750 are seats. The home games of the Heidenheim Heideköpfe have had an average of over 350 spectators since the club was founded. The Ballpark was one of three venues for the 2010 European Baseball Championship from July 23 to August 1, 2010 . Nüssli had increased the capacity to 3,000 spectators for this event. Social event was the presence of MLB Hall of Famer Mike Piazza in his role as hitting coach of the Italians. After acquiring the rights to the name, the Ballpark will operate under the name HellensteinEnergie-Ballpark for the next 10 years from 2021 .

Other sports facilities

The hall of the Max-Planck-Gymnasium , built in 1972, was the home of basketball for many years thanks to the activity of Oswald Brozio as a German and physical education teacher there. The first highlight was in 1977 the German championship of the C girls against DJK Agon 08 Düsseldorf , Ahrensburger TSV and TSV Bietigheim, which was lost very tightly and unhappily. In the 1970s and 1980s, the regional and major league games as well as youth training for the Olympic basketball took place there. The hall served as alternative quarters for the Heidenheim fencing days .

Entrance area of the Heidenheim district hall

The district hall of the vocational school center in Heckental, built in 1988, serves basketball, handball and volleyball players as well as badminton players as a venue.

The inauguration of the tennis hall on June 18, 1977 at the Rauhbuch next to the existing bitumen pitches with floodlights relaxed the spatial situation. In 1990 the bitumen outdoor areas were converted to sand.

At the suggestion of Heidenheim's Lord Mayor Bernhard Ilg , a route designer built a bike route on the ski slope on the Hochberg in 2002. Through the work of the cycling department and with the support of the city of Heidenheim, a bike park has been created there over the years. In 2017, a Four Cross race was organized for the first time as part of the German 4X Cup. The success of this event was so great that in 2018 the German championship in the Four Cross was held on the Hochberg.

Communication media

The first edition of the club newspaper appeared at Easter 1920, which was intended to keep the passive members and interested parties up to date. Since the merger to form the HSB in 1846, the newsletter has been published quarterly with around 40–70 pages and a circulation of at least 3,000 copies. The hsb report, which is published twice a year and has a maximum of 3,000 copies , has been available since 2010 .

In addition to the classic forms of communication, the HSB uses its own website and the departments also use social media, such as B. Facebook (baseball, boxer, fencer, handball player, rhythmic gymnastics, sambo and gymnastics), YouTube or Twitter .
