The Piranhas Oberhausen are an inline skate hockey club from Oberhausen . They are a department of SC Buschhausen 1912 eV and were founded in 1997. The club currently has around 120 members, making it one of the largest skater hockey clubs in Germany. In the 2014 season, the club is represented in all age groups (men, juniors, youth, schoolchildren & Bambini), apart from one women's team, and even has two men's teams. The club plays its home games in the sports hall at the winding tower in Oberhausen. They have an enemy friendship with the Sterkrade fireballs .
Teams
1st men's team
After relegation from the 2nd Bundesliga in the 2011 season, the first team plays in the Regionalliga Mitte.
In its early years, the club's flagship, the first team, played very successful skater hockey. Well-known players from the area were signed by the clubs such as the Duisburg Ducks and the then Moskitos Essen (today: SHC Rockets Essen ) and made it through from the regional league to the 1st Bundesliga North. This was followed by the first low blow for the Piranhas Oberhausen. Before you could even play a single game in the 1st Bundesliga, you had to withdraw because most of the players were lost to the surrounding clubs like Duisburg or Essen. This was followed by an equally quick relegation to the regional league. In 2004, the squad, studded with many junior players, even remained without a win. Just 4 draws were the only successes this season. In the two years that followed, placements were also very sobering. They managed to stay in the regional league twice and a fall even in the regional league could just be averted. In 2007 the team played more successfully again and even managed a third place, which actually did not entitle them to promotion. But since the first and second placed were the second men's teams from Essen and Iserlohn and were therefore not eligible for promotion, the Piranhas Oberhausen were allowed to move up. From a sporting point of view, they couldn't stay up in the 2nd Bundesliga North in 2008. But since the Paderborn Rogues withdrew their team, the association offered the Piranhas Oberhausen to continue playing in the 2nd Bundesliga North. In 2009 they managed to stay up on their own. Thanks to well-known obligations from ice hockey who earned their money in the DEL (e.g. Marcel Müller , today's NHL and national player with the Toronto Maple Leafs ), they achieved a 6th place. Just as quickly, however, they had to cope with their departures and the team was relegated in 2010 as the penultimate. Despite the possibility to get a starting place in the 2nd Bundesliga again through the green table, the team and the board decided to play together in the 2011 season in the Regionalliga Mitte, as they had to record some weakening departures again.

2nd men's team
The second team starts in the 2011 season in the Landesliga Niederrhein.
Until the 2003 season, the Piranhas Oberhausen consistently provided a second men's team, which also played quite successfully and was able to leave first teams such as Weserbergland, Remscheid and Neheim behind. The latter even played in the 2nd Bundesliga a few seasons later. In 2003 they even achieved second place in the Lower Rhine regional league. Some players who would have deserved to play in the first team in terms of performance, but were not taken into account, turned their backs on the club and looked for new clubs in higher leagues. The result was that you could not provide a second team in the 2004 season for the first time. This also applied to the following years, before a second team could be reported for the first time for the 2008 season, consisting of players from the teams from 2001-2003, the first team (who fell out of the squad due to promotion to the 2nd Bundesliga ) and junior players who wanted to bring them up to the men's age group. In their "first" season, of course, the team had to learn a lot and in the end be satisfied with a third from bottom place in the table and a goal difference that counted more than twice as many goals as they scored themselves. In 2009 the team played surprisingly successfully and reached a second place in the table in the Landesliga Niederrhein. Likewise, they put the second best storm and the second best defense in the league. Only the second team of the Duisburg Ducks (record champions in German skater hockey) had to admit defeat, but were allowed to participate in the relegation to the regional league. If you won the first leg against the second leg of the Menden Mambas with 4: 2, you lost the second leg with 1: 7. Due to some departures to the first team, the second team only achieved a disappointing penultimate place in the following year. Only because of the better goal difference and the direct comparison could the new second team of Fireballs Sterkrade be left behind.
