The Lucerne Sports Club Hockey Section (LSC) is a Swiss country hockey club from Lucerne . The main association was founded in 1918. The women's and men's teams both currently play in the highest Swiss league, the National League A (hall and field). In the 2006/2007 season, the men's team won all three Swiss titles (triple consisting of indoor and field champions as well as cup winners) as well as the international European Cup with promotion to Serie A. The club colors are green, black and white.
history
The prehistory of the main club spans the years 1910 to 1920. At that time there was a football club Sparta and an athletic sports club Young Fellows , which merged in 1920 and henceforth called Sportclub Young Fellows-Sparta Luzern.
When joining the Swiss Football and Athletics Association, the club name had to be changed again due to an objection from the Young Fellows Zurich . It was a happy thought of the assembly at the time to name the club simply and simply Lucerne Sports Club. This name has remained to this day and has a good reputation among athletes across the country.

Thirteen years after football and athletics, land hockey found its way into the Lucerne sports club. It was the tender sex that first played the game with the chrum stick in the LSC. The men followed only a little later, so that the hockey section of the LSC could be included in the Swiss Land Hockey Association on August 19, 1931. Participation in the championship of women and men practically constant in the highest national leagues has since then been part of the activities of the hockey department up to the present day. This series was only interrupted in the war years, when the hockey field was needed to provide food for the population (so-called "cultivation battle" ).
The "modern age" of the LSC begins in 1951. Heralded by the performance-oriented thinking of Charly Leutwyler, the hockey department was divided into an independent women's and men's section (until 1973), which led to an incomparable series of titles among the women and moved the men to also bet on the youth card and from 1956 to register teams for the junior and schoolchildren championships announced by the association for the first time. From then on, great importance was attached to the promotion of young people in the hockey movement.
successes
Probably the greatest success of the Lucerne Sports Club Hockey, along with the numerous women's trophies, was recorded in the 2006/2007 season. The men of the LSC won all three Swiss titles, the triple consisting of the Swiss champions in hall and the Swiss champions and cup winners field. The seven Swiss championship titles in the hall in a row from 2006 to 2012 today are certainly noteworthy in the recent past. Such a series is unrivaled and unique in the Swiss Hockey Federation. In addition, in 2008 Lucerne was the first Swiss club to participate in the new Euro Hockey League .
