The TSC Oberschöneweide was a sports club in East Berlin . It was founded on June 16, 1957 from a merger of several sports associations based in the Berlin district of Oberschöneweide and merged with two other sports clubs to form TSC Berlin on February 18, 1963 .

history

From 1954 onwards, to promote competitive sport in the GDR sports system, the competitive sports sections were separated from the company sports associations (BSG) of the state- owned companies (VEB) and combined in sports clubs (SC).

The TSC Oberschöneweide was created on June 16, 1957 from the merger of the Oberschöneweide-based BSG Motor Oberschöneweide of the VEB Transformatorenwerk Oberspree (TRO for short), BSG Motor Oberspree of the VEB Kabelwerk Oberspree (KWO for short), BSG Motor Wuhlheide / Schöneweide of the VEB Berliner Akkumulatoren- and element factory (BAE for short), BSG Motor Ostend of the VEB factory for television electronics (WF for short) and SC Motor Berlin . In addition to the TSC as a meeting point for competitive sports , the TSG Oberschöneweide, which still exists today, was also created as a contact point for popular sports .

In 1961, the SED district leadership in East Berlin decided that a new sports club should be created in East Berlin as a “civilian counterpart” to the two existing sports associations of the National People's Army ( Army Sports Association Forward ) and the People's Police ( Sports Association Dynamo ). For this purpose, TSC Oberschöneweide was merged with the sports clubs SC Rotation Berlin and SC Einheit Berlin on February 18, 1963 to form TSC Berlin.

ice Hockey

The ice hockey department, which was taken over by SC Motor, played in the league until 1960 - the top division in GDR ice hockey . But in order to reduce the number of Berlin teams in the league, the TSC joined the ice hockey team of the SC Einheit Berlin.

Soccer

After it was founded, the TSC took over the soccer team of SC Motor Berlin, which played in the 2nd GDR league , and played a total of five seasons in the then third-highest division in GDR soccer . In the 1961/1962 season , after four unsuccessful attempts, he was promoted to the GDR league . During the first league season 1962/1963 the merger to TSC Berlin took place. Three years later the 1. FC Union Berlin emerged from the soccer department of TSC Berlin .

rowing

Since the club was founded, the rowers of the TSC have used a boathouse built in 1912 on what was then the Hahns Mühle street . They were able to provide the club with numerous GDR championship titles and formed the basis for the later successful rowing department of TSC Berlin. The athletes won the following GDR championship titles:

  • 1957, 1958, 1959, 1960: ladies eighth

Table tennis

The most successful table tennis player at TSC was Lothar Pleuse , who had already won two GDR team championships with SC Motor Berlin. For the TSC Pleuse won a total of four GDR championships: 1960 in singles and 1957, 1960 and 1961 in doubles (each together with Heinz Schneider from BSG Post Mühlhausen ). In addition, he took part in several world and European championships .
