history

In 1962 it was decided to found the MSC Taifun Mörsch, which experienced a steep rise with the first German championship in 1965. A new clubhouse was inaugurated as early as 1972, which was expanded and improved several times in the following years. The team's performance remained top-notch and MSC Taifun Mörsch was in every final from 1965 to 1974. In 1976, the team was able to play a final again, in which, however, they had to accept the greatest defeat. This was followed by a long dry spell.

In 1982 it was that time again and the typhoon was back at the final. You left the field as the German runner-up. In the following years you could fight for the German championship in an almost uninterrupted chain. In 2000, the MSC Taifun Mörsch went down in Motoball history as the "Millennium Champion", and since then the club's team has been able to qualify for the final every year. Parallel to the club's first team, the MSC Taifun Mörsch has a similarly successful junior team as a springboard, in which the young players aged 16 and over can demonstrate their skills.

In 2007 youth work began to take a new path. The acquisition of 80 cm 3 small motorcycles was realized and boys aged 13 and over were able to learn the interaction between motorbike and ball. In the first year of participation in the dmsj round, the youth team managed to achieve the title of runner-up.

Stadion

The square of the Erwin-Schöffel-Stadium has been built according to the latest standards and has a computer-controlled irrigation system to keep the development of dust to a minimum. For safety reasons, the run-off zones around the two goal housings were enlarged to 10 m deep and 30 m wide and provided with a high ball catch fence. The spectator area of ​​the entire facility was increased by 50 cm in addition to the grandstand, thus ensuring a better view. In the evening events, the play area is illuminated by a six-mast floodlight system with 24 kW output. A large, modern score display constantly provides information to the audience about the current time and the current score.

A special treat of the MSC Taifun Mörsch for its viewers is the live broadcast of the games in the club's own clubhouse.
