history

Soccer

From the 1943/44 season onwards , the SG's soccer department took part in the Bohemian-Moravia Gauliga, where it finished third at the end of the season. With one game more than the leading LSV Prag-Gbell or the runner-up NSTG Budweis , the team achieved only 8: 8 points at the end of the season and a meager goal rate per game of 1.80 compared to the places before. For the 1944/45 season, the team was divided into the new Bohemia group. Due to the advanced Second World War , however, gaming operations could no longer be started. After the end of the war, Bohemia became part of what was then Czechoslovakia and the association was dissolved.

Handball

In December 1943 the SG won over Bölcke-Possnitz and thus became the champion of Bohemia-Moravia . The then reigning shot put champion Josef Bongen was also in the squad of the championship team . At the Prague indoor handball tournament in February 1944, the team failed in the intermediate round at the eventual winner of the SG Berlin with 8: 9. At halftime, the team was just 4: 3 in the lead. For the second elimination round of the German field handball championship 1943/44 , the team met LSV Oschatz at home , but failed there 6: 8.

At the German athletics championship in 1943 , Josef Bongen, who started for the SG, won the gold medal in the shot put over a distance of 15.29 m.
