history
SC Minerva Berlin was founded on May 11, 1893 at a party in Quitzowstrasse under the name Berliner FC Minerva . In 1896, FC merged with Wilmersdorfer FC Frühling to form SC Minerva 93 Berlin, with Saxonia Berlin and Berolina Moabit joining them in 1904 . Emil Röpke became the first chairman of the association. In 1899, Max Faese set up a youth department of the club. A year later, on September 29, 1900, the Minerva Sport Club became a member of the Association of German Ball Game Clubs .
Minerva celebrated his first major success as Berlin runner-up in 1918. Among other things, Richard Genthe , who later became honorary president of the Berlin Football Association, was the goalkeeper on the pitch. In 1932 Minerva was Brandenburg runner-up after a 2: 4 and a 2: 2 against Tennis Borussia Berlin in the final. This runner-up qualified for the final round of the German soccer championship 1931/32 . There, however, Minerva failed in the first round after two times leading 2: 4 against later champions FC Bayern Munich . Subsequently, the Minerva was an integral part of the newly founded Gauliga Berlin-Brandenburg , in which the runner-up was won in 1936. In 1935, the team reached the quarter-finals in the Tschammer Cup . In the 1944/45 season, the club briefly formed the KSG Minerva / SSV Berlin war syndicate with Spandauer SV , which was dissolved at the end of the war.
In the same year, the remains of Minerva were re-established as SG Tiergarten , and in 1949 the club returned to its historic name. The SG Tiergarten already took part in the first Berlin post-war championship, the Berlin City League . In their season, the sports community reached sixth place, clearly behind the champions SG Staaken . Another notable success after the Second World War was the Berlin championship by the A-Junior team in 1953. From July 1956 to June 1958, Heinz Lucas was the club's coach. The juniors were almost able to build on this success in 1957 as the Berlin Cup winners and runner-up.
Minerva's first team reached the Berlin runner-up twice in 1954 and 1956, with the club still being active in higher-class football in West Berlin until the mid-sixties .
In 1960, the junior player Bernd Patzke was appointed to the DFB national team for the first time . Later, Patzke was to be active in the Bundesliga for Hertha BSC and TSV 1860 Munich and was used 24 times for the German national team.
