The Ruder-Club-Havel Brandenburg (RCHB) is a sports club in the city of Brandenburg an der Havel . It existed from 1906 until the end of the Second World War and was re-established in 1990 after the political change in the GDR . In the time of the GDR , the club was initially affiliated as a rowing section to ZSG Werner Seelenbinder Brandenburg and then to the BSG unit Brandenburg . Both competitive and popular sports are practiced at the Rowing Club Havel Brandenburg .
history
The Ruder-Club-Havel Brandenburg was founded on May 18, 1906. Otto Dörge was elected as the first association chairman. In 1910, the rowing club started in a regatta for the first time . The venue was Calbe an der Saale . The club's boathouse was initially on the Beetzsee , and later on the Klein Insel on the Havel . On October 16, 1921, a new boathouse was opened in Hammerstrasse on the Nähtewinde, a tributary of the Havel. Five years later, in 1926, the club had 23 row boats , 1 motor boat and 248 members.
At the end of the Second World War, the boathouse was damaged by several shell hits. Undamaged boats were hidden from Soviet soldiers. Since sports clubs were initially banned, the former RCHB continued to train as a so-called free water sport, rowing division. On 17 July 1949 Günther Sniegowski was in East zones Rowing Championships in Berlin-Grünau runner-up in one . He started for the ZSG Werner Seelenbinder Brandenburg, which was founded this year and dissolved again the following year.
In 1950 the BSG Einheit Brandenburg was founded, which took over the rowing section in the tradition of the Rowing Club Havel. In the decades that followed, several of the unit's athletes won medals in national championships. Jakob Kopf, Jürgen John, Peter Rynkowski and Jörg Hoffmann were East German champions in the lightweight four without a helmsman in 1963 . Many well-known rowers such as the two-time Olympic and four-time world champions Jörg Landvoigt and Bernd Landvoigt began their careers with the BSG unit. Other national or international medal winners who came to rowing through the unit were Jörg Friedrich , Hans-Joachim Borzym , Dietmar Schiller , Carola Lichey , Barbara Reichel and Martina Fink .
On June 18, 1969, the Beetzsee regatta course was opened on the Beetzsee . The prestige object cost about 6 million marks . The construction time was about twenty months and 750,000 marks were provided by athletes and the people of Brandenburg.
On June 1, 1990, the rowing section broke away from the BSG unit and the rowing club Havel Brandenburg was re-established. However, the association was legally denied a refund of the property expropriated during the Soviet occupation. The boat house and club house remained in communal ownership and were leased to the rowing club. After years with only a few or less significant sporting successes, since the end of the 1990s Brandenburg rowers have repeatedly won medals in championships. For example , after winning the runner-up in 1998 , Lars Beilfuß became German champion in two with a helmsman in a racing community in two with a helmsman in 1999 and 2000, and achieved bronze in the 1999 rowing World Cup on the Rotsee near Lucerne . On May 31, 2002 the Rowing Club Havel became part of the state base rowing, to which the rowing club Plaue / Havel and the Rathenower rowing club Wiking belong in addition to the RCHB.
At the European Championships in 2015 , RCHB rower Ronja Fini Sturm won the silver medal in a lightweight double scull with Marie-Louise Dräger . At the world championships in the same year , both came in sixth place. A year earlier the rate was at the U23 World Championships in a racing community with Samantha Nesajda, Carolin Franzke and Franziska Kreutzer the title in the lightweight - quadruple sculls won. In 2016 she repeated the success of the previous year on the Beetzsee and won silver again at the European Championship .
