Mödlinger EC

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Mödlinger Eislaufclub (MEC) was an ice hockey club from Mödling founded in 1928 .

history

In October 1928 he became a member of the Austrian ice hockey association . The Mödling artificial ice rink, which opened in November 1928 and had a grandstand for 3,000 spectators, gave the club good training and play opportunities, as, in contrast to clubs with natural ice rinks, they could play in most weather conditions. Geographically Mödling belonged to Lower Austria, but because of its proximity to Vienna, the MEC was assigned to the Vienna Championship by the Austrian Ice Hockey Association.

In the 1928/29 season, the MEC was classified in Group B of 2nd class and came third there. In the following year he was in the same group winner and entered in the 1930/31 season in group A of the 1st class and reached 3rd place there. After the 3rd place in the B group of the first class in 1931/32 a place in the 1st class, which consisted of only one group, could be regained in 1932/33. In 1933 the MEC was third in 1st class, in 1934 and 1935 the club took fourth place.

In 1935, the so-called Vienna League was introduced as the top division above 1st class, in which only the two best teams in Vienna played. In 1936 , the Mödlinger EC took fourth place in the now second-class 1st class. In 1937/38 the MEC became champions of this division.

After the annexation of Austria , the MEC took part in the district championship east - to which Vienna, Lower Danube and Styria belonged - in the 1938/39 season.

other activities

1928/29 they got involved in the games for the Schlesinger Cup. In 1929, the MEC emerged victorious from the games for the ice hockey association's club cup. From 1933/34 a youth team of the MEC took part in the games for the youth hiking award of the ice hockey association.
