The SC (Sport Club) Germania Kattowitz was a German football club from Katowice in Upper Silesia .
history
The club was founded in 1905 as SC Germania Kattowitz and belonged to the Southeast German Football Association . Germania had chosen white and red striped jerseys and black trousers with belts as playing clothes. The game was played on the Adamiecz meadow on Nicolaistraße between Grünstraße and Peter and Paul Church, across from the Münstermann company. Later - the exact time is unknown - Germania created its own space on what was then Seydlitzstraße, which is now called Poniatowski-Straße. Like SC Diana Kattowitz , Germania also had Polish players.
The “Teutons” had their wedding around 1910, when they won the Upper Silesian Championship twice and thus made it into the Southeast finals. But here - like the Prussians in previous years - they could not reap great laurels. When they participated for the first time, thanks to a bye, they survived the preliminary round and reached the semi-finals, where VfR 1897 Breslau showed them the limits with 4: 1. A year later, the same result was the final destination in the preliminary round, again against a club from Wroclaw, the namesake SC Germania.
Until 1922, Germania, considerably weakened by the First World War, played in German gaming. The last surviving placement is the third place in the southern district of the Gau Kattowitz in the season 1921/22. When Katowice became Polish, the news dried up. Presumably the association has disbanded. No other club emerged from the remains of Germania, nor did a club that carried on the tradition.
