history

The Turn- und Spielverein (TSV) Marburg-Ockershausen was founded in 1898 and is therefore one of the oldest sports clubs in Marburg. In the early years the association focused on weight training, especially boxing, weightlifting and tug of war. Important athletes in the period before the First World War were the boxer Adam Müller and the weightlifter Johann Scherr . Müller, who was called the bull of Marburg , won numerous prizes up to 1905 and then joined a troupe of artists in Frankfurt am Main that toured the USA from 1910 on. Scherr went down in the club's history as the eternal runner-up , because after 1900 he was considered a favorite several times at the state level for about a decade, but only ever won the runner-up in competitions. During the First World War, the club's development came to a standstill, as many of the active athletes took to the field. A total of 23 club members lost their lives in the war.

The new start of the club after the First World War was difficult because hardly any sports equipment and clothing could be purchased during the inflationary period. After the end of inflation, a generous donation from the Jahnow family in Marburg stabilized the club's finances. For men again mainly weight training, but also some ball sports were offered. In addition, a separate marching band was formed from which today's music department emerged. In 1924, a women's athletics department was established, initially practicing ribbon gymnastics and dance. Under the direction of Otto Conrad, who from the late 1920s also made sporty excursions such as B. started offering ski trips, the popularity and membership of the club grew immensely. Conrad was an early networker, as he also took up cross-association activities, including a cooperation with the Kurhessischer Vertein für Luftfahrt in nearby Cölbe and with other associations. As a result of Conrad's activities, several smaller clubs, such as the former Catholic workers' sports club, merged with the TSV, which in turn, with its music department, played the cultural program of events of other clubs.

In the era of National Socialism, the association and all other sports clubs Marburg was brought into line . It was fatal for the club that the Jahnow family, of Jewish descent, had once committed to the TSV, so that the TSV hardly benefited from state sports funding, but NS organizations such as Kraft durch Freude have taken on the ski trips and others so far activities typical of the association. During the Second World War, the club's activities came to a standstill again.

The association was re-established in 1948. Since weight training had gone out of fashion and the classic ball sports were offered by numerous other clubs, the focus in the post-war period was on athletics, table tennis and roller sports, and later on badminton and volleyball.

In 1974 a gym wheel department was founded in the club , which has now become the club's flagship: Among other things, the club became German team champions in gymnastics in 2002. Several gymnasts from TSV Marburg-Ockershausen have won numerous individual world championships.
