history

Dirk Meyer and Mareen Kräh

KSC Asahi Spremberg emerged from the former judo club SG Dynamo Spremberg, which was founded in 1958. After the fall of the Wall , the training facility could no longer be used, so that in 1992 a new Judo interest group and, in the following year, a judo department called JUDO-TEAM-Asahi under the patronage of FSV Spremberg, was set up in 1895 . At that time around 15 children trained in a former living room on the church square. Due to the increasing number of members, the association's management tried to find new premises and soon afterwards moved into the previously derelict cafeteria on Puschkinplatz, which was opened in 1997 as the new association chair. By 1999 the number of members grew to around 100 children and young people. In the early years, various partnerships were entered into with local kindergartens, schools and senior sports groups, which still shape the range of clubs offered today. The spatial conditions of the Puschkinplatz sports canteen have meanwhile been expanded to include a new medical wing, a modern weight room, a seminar room, a course room and the only indoor climbing wall in Spremberg.

structure

With judo, volleyball, karate, sumo, fitness, badminton and billiards, the association maintains a total of seven departments, each of which operates in different areas of popular and top-class sports . In addition to the sports, the KSC offers a wide range of sports with women's sports, aerobics, health sports, climbing, senior sports, children's events, group trips and many projects.
