The SC Neubrandenburg ( SCN ) is a German sports club based in the city of Neubrandenburg in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania . He is known for several German champions, European and world champions as well as Olympic champions.

history

On December 13, 1961, the German Gymnastics and Sports Association of the GDR (DTSB) decided to found new sports clubs in the previously underdeveloped districts of Neubrandenburg, Potsdam and Cottbus to improve the performance of the sport with regard to the 1964 Olympic Games . As a result, SC Neubrandenburg (SCN) was founded on May 1, 1962, initially with the football and athletics sections. At a preparatory election meeting on April 27, 1962, Horst Rünger was elected as the first chairman; the actual founding meeting took place on April 27, 1962.

In June 2015 the SC Neubrandenburg had 1615 members and offered u. a. the following sports:

Heinrich Nostheide has been the club's president since 2005. The most important competition venue is the Friedrich Ludwig Jahn Stadium in Neubrandenburg . Throwing trainer Dieter Kollark and all- around national trainer Klaus Baarck work there as trainers of the SCN.

Football from 1962 to 1965

In 1962, the soccer section of the BSG Turbine Neubrandenburg was incorporated into the SCN as a major pillar of the new sports club. The club took over their place in the third class II. GDR league in the current season . At the end of the season, the team rose to the first GDR league and just one season later, the team was promoted to the GDR upper league in 1964 , but only reached the penultimate place and rose again immediately. In the meantime, the DTSB had reorganized the sport again, separated the soccer sections from the sports clubs and converted them into soccer clubs. However, the underperforming sections of the sports clubs in Neubrandenburg, Potsdam and Cottbus were excluded from this, and so the Neubrandenburgers had to come to terms with the company sports association Post Neubrandenburg, which was founded after an interlude as "FSV" on April 26, 1966. The best-known players of the SCN include Erich Hamann (later 3 international games for Vorwärts Berlin), Siegfried Nathow (159 league games in Stendal and Erfurt) and Meinhard Uentz (later team captain at Union Berlin).

Canoe since 1966

On May 5, 1966, another section was added with canoeing , which was expanded to become a GDR-wide focus. The canoeists developed into by far the most successful section with 7 Olympic gold medals and 45 world championship titles (including Rüdiger Helm as two-time Olympic champion and eleven-time world champion and Andreas Dittmer with three Olympic victories and eight world championship titles).

athletics

With Astrid Kumbernuss (shot put), Franka Dietzsch (discus), Katrin Krabbe (sprint), Christine Wachtel , Sigrun Wodars (800 m) and Brigitte Köhn (400 m), the athletes won four Olympic victories and seven world championship titles. Thomas Springstein
trained the sprinters Katrin Krabbe and Grit Breuer until the beginning of the 1990s before he switched to SC Magdeburg after doping allegations .

Triathlon

The multiple German champion, overall World Cup winner of 2005 and Olympic participant Anja Dittmer competes in the jersey of the triathlon department . Other successful triathletes of the club are Christiane Pilz and Ines Estedt . The latter was at the 2002 World Championships in Nice for the second time after 1997 world champion over the long distance. The former triathlete Steffen Justus has been a trainer in the triathlon department of the SCN since May 1, 2019 .
