Founding associations and history

The SCS has a rather complex merger history: The oldest of the parent clubs is the Berliner Sport Club Wacker 1900 football club, founded on February 11, 1900 in the Friedrichshain district . This original club was joined by the Wacker soccer club in 1912 . After the expansion of the company premises of the Siemens company and the settlement of the company's employees in Berlin, the new district Siemensstadt was created, employees of the company founded three new sports clubs: 1907 the gymnastics club Nonnendamm Siemensstadt , 1919 the swimming club Siemens and 1921 the sports club Siemens . These clubs were no longer allowed to exist independently during the National Socialist dictatorship and were forcibly merged in 1938 to form the Siemens company sports club . After the end of the Second World War , all sports clubs were initially banned; It was not until 1949 that the control council laws of the victorious allied powers allowed new foundations. In Siemensstadt, the general sports club Turn-Sport-Verein Siemensstadt and the soccer club 1. Soccer Club Stern Siemensstadt emerged from the previous clubs . The TSV split up temporarily in 1951 into the gymnastics club Siemensstadt 07 and the sports club Siemensstadt , but came together again in 1958 under the name gymnastics and sports club Siemensstadt . In 1971, 1. FC Stern Siemensstadt merged with the newly founded Berlin Sports Club Wacker 1900 to form the Wacker Siemensstadt game association . The history of the merger came to an end in 1975 when SV Wacker Siemensstadt and TSV Siemensstadt merged to form SC Siemensstadt .

Handball

The handball players had their best time as TSV Siemensstadt in the early 1970s:

The greatest success was the Berlin field handball championship in 1967 and the associated direct promotion of the then TSV Siemensstadt to the field handball Bundesliga for the 1968 season . The highest German league could not be held, however, at the end of the season 1968 the TSV rose again. In 1970 the TSV was again Berlin champion on the large field, but could not prevail in the qualifying games for participation in the field handball Bundesliga in 1971 against the competitors TuS Ferndorf and Eintracht Hohn .

TSV Siemensstadt was also successful in indoor handball at the time, and in 1971 the team became Berlin champions here too.

In 1994, SC Siemensstadt again won the Berlin championship for men and in 1999 for women.

Soccer

As Wacker Siemensstadt , the first men played for the first time from 1974 to 1977 in the then third-class Oberliga Berlin. SC Siemensstadt managed to return in 1988. The best season followed, which ended with an excellent 7th place. The team was able to leave the former Bundesliga club Tennis Borussia Berlin behind. In 1990, however, the team rose again as 15th. In the years that followed, further descents followed. In the 2016/2017 season, the 1st men only plays in the district league B (10th league).

In the lower teams, the third men of the club are successful, who between 2000 and 2004 won the championship in the Berlin district league A three times and the district cup once. The 4th men were in the A class in the amateur league and in the Berlin Oberliga Berlin champions and Berlin cup winners. Most of the players in this team were players from 1.FC Stern Siemensstadt. In earlier years, SC Siemensstadt was a talent factory for professional football - Hertha BSC alone poached three youth players: Andreas Schmidt , Oliver Schmidt and Carsten Ramelow .

Another professional footballer who grew up at SCS, Hakan Balta , now plays for Galatasaray Istanbul and made his national team debut at the 2008 European Championship .
