history

Beginnings until 1945

The football tradition in Thale goes back to the beginning of the 20th century: On October 12, 1904, the Thaler Football Club, the first football club in the city, which had 13,000 inhabitants at the time, was founded. He was followed on May 4, 1905 by FC Union Thale . The SC Askania Thale joined the Thaler FC in 1917 , due to the war this club merged with the FC Viktoria 1911 Thale to form SpVgg Thale on May 30, 1917 . The following time was still marked by mergers and other start-ups, from which the SC Preußen Thale emerged on July 1, 1933.

Foundation of the company sports community

After the end of the Second World War , all civil associations were dissolved on January 1, 1946 at the instigation of the Soviet occupying forces. Sports competitions were initially only allowed to take place at city or district level. Athletes from Thale had already founded the Thale Sports Association in October 1945. They found support from the Thale-based ironworks, and so the sports club was renamed SG Eisenhüttenwerk Thale on May 1, 1946. After the founding of the GDR , sport there was converted to a new economic basis, so-called sponsoring companies created company sports associations (BSG), which they supported financially. In Thale, on January 17, 1951, the previous sports community was converted into the BSG Stahl Thale, the ironworks continued to be the supporting company.

SV Stahl Thale from 1990

With the political change of 1989, the economic prerequisites for company sports associations no longer existed; on the other hand, independent clubs could be founded again. On July 6, 1990, members of the former BSG Stahl founded the new Stahl Thale sports club.

Soccer

From the football district class to the upper league and GDR cup winners

Even within the sports community, footballers were the strongest sports group. They began their game operations in 1946 in the district class Quedlinburg , won in the 1948/49 season in the district class West and in 1950 after a 3-1 final victory against the BSG Hydrierwerk Zeitz football champions of Saxony-Anhalt . In the subsequent round of promotion to the GDR major league , the Harzers qualified with a third place on June 25, 1950 for the highest GDR soccer class. The chain of success did not break off in the subsequent cup round either. After victories over the BSG Finow (14: 1), ZSG Shoe Metro Weissenfels (2: 1) and BSG Märkische Volksstimmefest Babelsberg (3: 2), SG Iron Works Thale stand on 3 September 1950 in East Berlin , Walter Ulbricht Stadium in final of the FDGB Cup . In front of 15,000 spectators, the fourth of the previous league season, BSG KWU Erfurt , was defeated 4-0.

With the same successful team Thale went into his first league season in 1950/51 . In the end, BSG Stahl finished seventh with 17 wins from 34 games, making them the best promoter of the season. Center forward Werner Oberländer was the third best upper league shooter with 31 hits. After a weaker season in 1951/52 (13th place among 19 teams), the steelworkers achieved their best league result with fifth place in the 1952/53 season. However, the crash followed a year later; with only four wins and the worst goal record of all teams (28:59), the steel team ended up in last place in the table.

Football between second and third class

In the following season 1954/55 Thale had the bad luck that the GDR league , which had previously played three seasons, was reduced to one season. The 7th place in the league season 2 was not enough to qualify for the future single-track GDR league, so the second relegation had to be accepted within a year. For seven years, the team occupied midfield positions in the third-class II. GDR league , until 1963 again fell victim to restructuring. After the end of the 1962/63 season, the II. GDR League was dissolved and Stahl Thale had to compete in the sporty unattractive Halle district league. It took another twelve years in the third division until Thale became district champion in 1976 and thus qualified for the GDR league. Although the league did not have a high sporting level after its bloating on five seasons, Thale was only 9th out of 12 teams in 1977 and rose in 1978 as the penultimate again in the district league. There the team was able to regenerate, was again district champion and then asserted itself for five years in the GDR league. From 1984 to 1987 three seasons followed in the district league. In the meantime, the GDR league had been reduced to two seasons again and the district champions had to qualify via promotion rounds. In 1985 Thale failed in the promotion round against ISG Schwerin in Berlin's Alte Försterei, but a year later he was promoted to the GDR league again. Stahl Thale was able to stay there until the end of GDR football, and in 1988 even achieved second place in the southern season.

Since 1990

The first football team of the club, founded in 1990, was integrated into the southern relay of the newly created league of the Northeast German Football Association ( NOFV-Liga Nordost , fourth class) and was able to finish the 1990/91 season with a third place. In 1992 the football department tried to go it alone and on March 3rd founded the sports association Thale 04 in memory of the club of the same name founded in 1904. The newly formed team, however, had too little sporting substance, so that at the end of the 1992/93 season, relegation to the fifth-class association league Saxony-Anhalt had to be accepted. After relegation to the regional league in 2000, the footballers ended the episode of Sportvereinigung 04 and returned on July 1, 2001 under the umbrella of SV Stahl. After an interlude in the district league Quedlinburg in the 2002/03 season, the Thaler were able to celebrate their return to the state league in 2005. After the 2010/11 season, the club rose to the 8th league, the state class of Saxony-Anhalt. In 2013 he returned to the national league, from which SV Thale had to relegate in 2018.
