The SC Condor from 1956 eV is a sports club based in Hamburg . The club was founded on July 13, 1956 and is currently active in 14 different branches in competitive and popular sports. The club colors are black and gold. The SCC sees itself as a traditional district association with a strong connection to the surrounding districts of Farmsen, Berne and Oldenfelde. There are currently around 1,700 active members (as of 06/2018).

The history of the association has been characterized since its foundation by a dynamic development of foundings and closings of different types of sport and sports offers for competitive athletes, recreational athletes, children and senior citizens. According to the long-time chairman, Günter Philipp, the condor was chosen to give the club its name, in order to use an animal name to express that the SC Condor is open to many sports.

history

The SC Condor was founded on July 13, 1956 by dissatisfied members of Farmsener TV , after they only wanted to be a club for gymnasts and did not intend to maintain their own football division. Nowadays, the soccer fields of the two clubs are in the immediate vicinity on both sides of the Bernese Heerweg.

In the year it was founded, the table tennis and handball divisions were set up alongside the football division. Boxing was also included as a sport in 1958, and chess and basketball a year later. The latter division, however, was dissolved again in 1963. In 1962, gymnastics was established as a division and in 1964 the children's gymnastics division. A year later, in 1965, the cycling department was also founded, while the chess department was dissolved again. In 1968 the sound and film sectors and everyone's sport were added.

In 1969 the inauguration of today's tennis clubhouse took place, which is located in the immediate vicinity of the Farmsener TV football fields next to the U1 tracks of the Hamburger Hochbahn . Up until this point in time, the tennis department had to use the courts of the handball division. In the same year, after only four years, the cycling department dissolved, as did the film division in 1970.

In the 1970s the association continued to grow, so that in 1972 SC Condor had 1000 members. In addition, numerous other branches were founded in these years, such as volleyball and bowling (both 1972), karate (1975), dance sport (1976), ice hockey (1977), judo (1979) and jazz gymnastics (1980). Numerous boxing successes were also celebrated in this decade, such as winning the German youth boxing championship in the light middleweight division in 1974 and winning the Hamburg and North German boxing championships in 1975. In the same year a youth boxing match between the FRG and Denmark was organized.

The groundbreaking ceremony for the new clubhouse took place in 1983 after the previous building fell victim to a fire. The new clubhouse at Berner Heerweg 188 was inaugurated on February 7, 1984. Other branches were founded and closed from the 1980s to the present: The folklore branch was founded in 1985, badminton and modern dance in 1987, and fitness gymnastics in 1988; Meanwhile, ice hockey was dissolved in 1985 and badminton, folklore and jazz gymnastics in 1989, some of which only existed for a few years. The ice hockey division of SC Condor was particularly successful locally in the short period in which it existed. The greatest success was the qualification for the relegation round to the Oberliga Nord in the 1978/79 season . In addition, the club was seen as the second force in ice hockey after Hamburger SV during the existence of games in the city . In other sports, national successes could even be celebrated in the 1990s with the German vice championship in welterweight in 1994 and the German championship in bowling in 1999.

Since 2000, the association has been campaigning for cooperation with schools, such as the Farmsen high school . The establishment and closure of divisions also continued in the new millennium: in 2012 the basketball department was reactivated and the Budjinkan Budo Taijutsu divisions , which only had a lifespan of two years, and Fit and Bounce were newly established.
