SC tractor Oberwiesenthal
The Tractor Oberwiesenthal sports club was a performance center for alpine and Nordic skiing and luge in the Saxon town of Oberwiesenthal . It existed as a sports club from 1955 to 1990, and its members achieved numerous national and international successes.
history
The Sports Association tractor , which in Schwerin already SC Traktor Schwerin had built up, straightened her winter sports training center in the traditional winter sports resort of Oberwiesenthal on the Fichtelberg in the Erzgebirge one. In 1955 the SC Traktor Oberwiesenthal was founded. Initially, Alpine and Nordic skiing were promoted as priorities. From 1958 a luge section was systematically set up. In 1965, the Children's and Youth Sports School (KJS) Oberwiesenthal was established.
Due to alleged unprofitability and the lack of international success, the GDR sports leadership released Alpine racing from the children's and youth sports aid in 1968 and a year later prohibited Alpine racers from further participation in international comparisons. From now on, SC Traktor's funding focused on luge, ski jumping and cross-country skiing as well as Nordic combined .
In 1974 the new Fichtelbergschanze was consecrated and a cross-country and biathlon stadium was built. In 1980, SC Traktor inaugurated a large new sports complex with a children's and youth sports school, which was named after Sigmund Jähn three years later . After the fall of the Wall , the SC Traktor Oberwiesenthal dissolved.
Aftermath
In 1990 the Oberwiesenthaler SV 1990 e. V., who sees himself as his successor and deals with skittles, bowling, aerobics, volleyball and cycling. In 1999, the Alpine Skiclub Oberwiesenthal e. V. founded.
Since that was not enough for a federal training center , the WSC Erzgebirge Oberwiesenthal was founded in 2002 . Today Oberwiesenthal and Klingenthal , where there was also a well-known winter sports club in the GDR with the SC Dynamo Klingenthal , are a joint federal base for skiing. The WSC Erzgebirge Oberwiesenthal benefits from a large number of clubs in Saxony, whose best winter sports enthusiasts move to Oberwiesenthal.
In December 2009, an association of the same name was founded, which refers to the traditional name and, under the significant influence of a restaurateur, mainly deals with the annual event of a topless tobogganing spectacle. The official legal successor, however, is the Oberwiesenthaler SV 1990.
