TSV 1896 Rintheim

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The TSV Karlsruhe-Rintheim 1896 eV, just TSV Rintheim for short , is a sports club in the Karlsruhe district of Rintheim , which today has around 890 members.

The entire club is divided into five different departments with an extremely diverse range of sports: fistball , fitness and health sports , handball , tennis and gymnastics . TSV Rintheim became known through its handball team, which played in the handball Bundesliga from 1969 to 1977 and 1978/79 .

But also through the numerous sporting successes of the individual departments, one can look back on a traditional and eventful past.

1896 was the founding year of the Gymnastics Federation and the Rintheim Gymnastics Club, and 1906 sports fields were designed for both clubs in the local area. The netball game, which later became today's fistball, was incorporated into the club in 1912 and with the relocation of the sports fields to the Hardtwald (now Mackensenkaserne) in 1921, the beginning of women's and children's gymnastics can also be mentioned. From 1923 it became possible to use the gymnasium of the Tulla School for practice and the handball game began.

In the turmoil of the Nazi era, a dissolution is ordered, so that the current TSV Rintheim is re-established in 1946 by former members of the old clubs.

In 1952 the sports facility and the clubhouse were built in the sand pit on Haidstrasse and Neustrasse. The founding of the ski department and the promotion to the (two-part) indoor handball Bundesliga date back to 1969.

Another enrichment was the inclusion of a tennis department, combined with the construction of tennis courts. In 1981 the Rintheimer sports hall was built by the city and in the following year the commissioning of the sports field and the club house could be celebrated at the current location.

Handball

The most successful department of TSV Rintheim is the handball department. In indoor handball, the first men's team played for nine years in the first division and seven years in the second division, but now, as part of the HSG Rintheim / Weingarten / Grötzingen, only belongs to the sixth class national league. After seven years, however, this syndicate was dissolved again for the 2013/14 season. Since then, TSV Rintheim has been participating in games in the district classes with two of its own teams.

1st National League

In 1969, TSV 1896 Rintheim, together with TV Großwallstadt, was promoted to the South Season of the then still two-track Bundesliga. After the TSV in 1969/70 and 1970/71 had just managed to stay in the league as seventh and penultimate, the handball players from Rintheim achieved fourth place in 1971/72 for the first time with a balanced point account. Over a fifth place in 1972/73 and third place in 1973/74 , the TSV 1974/75 managed the runner-up in the season south and thus the qualification for the semi-finals of the German handball championship. In the duel against VfL Gummersbach they managed a 17:16 home win, but away from home TSV lost against the eventual champions 11:18 and thus missed the final.

In the same season, TSV was also in the final of the DHB-Pokal , which however was very narrowly lost against TSV Grün-Weiß Dankersen with 14:15.

While TSV missed the DM semi-finals by just one point in fourth place in the following season, qualification for the single-track Bundesliga was due in the 1976/77 season . The TSV clearly missed this as seventh in the table with nine points behind the saving sixth place. After eight years in the Bundesliga, the Rintheimers were relegated.

However, in 1978 TSV was promoted to the single-track Bundesliga. But the 1978/79 season was the last year of the first class for TSV 1896. As eleventh, the team missed the saving tenth place in the table by just one point and was relegated again.

In a total of nine years in the Bundesliga, TSV 1896 Rintheim played 152 Bundesliga games, of which TSV won 64, played 15 draws and lost 73. The handball players from Rintheim have a total of 2,450 to 2,434 goals.

2nd Bundesliga

TSV 1896 did not make the leap into the 2nd Bundesliga, introduced in 1981, until 1988. In the first attempt in 1989, TSV missed relegation. But after the immediate resurgence in 1990, the team established itself in the lower midfield of the southern season of the 2nd Bundesliga. Sixth place in the 1994/95 season meant the best performance in the second division. But this flight of highs was immediately followed by relegation in 1996. The total of seven seasons in the 2nd Bundesliga have not been followed by any more.

Youth concept

Today the TSV Rintheim is particularly known for its active, committed and good youth work across the departments.

This is linked to an overall concept that operates under the title " Movement and Community - Sport and Social Coexistence at TSV Rintheim " and stands for the integration of children, but above all for the involvement of parents.

This overall club concept serves:

  • the same orientation for everyone in the club
  • the interlinked use of resources and forces
  • as a yardstick for everyone's concrete action
  • Sport and fair play
  • a respectful interaction
  • social engagement

The voluntary work has already helped TSV Rintheim to win several awards, including a. the big star of sport, the lottery youth promotion award and the nationwide honorary award from SportBild.
