history

When more and more young men were called up as soldiers for military service in the final phase of the Second World War , the Bavarian Gauligist BC Augsburg, like many sports clubs in the German Empire, had personnel bottlenecks. In order to be able to maintain gaming operations, the BCA merged in 1943 (during the 1943/44 season) with the Post-SG Augsburg to form a war syndicate called KSG BC / Post Augsburg. Only one team was set up, the clubs did not merge. After the end of the Second World War in 1945, the syndicate was dissolved again.

KSG BC / Post Augsburg took part in two seasons of the Gauliga Bayern until it was dissolved: In the season 1943/44, during which the war syndicate was set up and the place of BC Augsburg was taken over, the runner-up title in the season south succeeded. The champions were FC Bayern Munich , who were already at the top of the table after 15 of 18 matchdays.

In the 1944/45 season the squadrons were reorganized due to the war and KSG BC / Post took part in the newly founded Schwaben squadron. Despite the considerably smaller and less prominent field of participants, it was again only enough for KSG BC / Post to take second place, this time behind TSV Schwaben Augsburg . It should be noted, however, that the game was canceled due to the war and that KSG BC / Post had played two games fewer than TSV Schwaben at that time. TSV Schwaben lost four out of ten games, while KSG BC / Post lost only one out of eight games.

Trivia

The name KSG Augsburg is in use again today: The bowling club Kegelsportgemeinschaft Augsburg is shortened accordingly.
