history

Coat of arms of Progress Forest

The TV 1861 Forst was founded in 1861 under the name Turnverein 1861 Forst . After the Second World War , the association was re-established under the name SG Forst-Mitte . In 1950, Forst became a company sports association and it was renamed to BSG Einigkeit Forst , only one year later a merger with the BSG Friendship Forest to BSG Textil Forst and the association was assigned to the VEB Forster Tuchfabriken based in Forst. From 1952 Forst played under the name BSG Progress Forest . After the reunification, it was renamed TV 1861 Forst . In 1994 the sports of bowling and martial arts split off to form the SV Alemannia Forst club , all other sports, including football, remained with TV.

Soccer

The football department of TV 1861 Forst was founded in 1908 and initially called itself FA 1908 of TV 1861 . For the 1924/25 season , the club, now playing under the name FV 1908 Forst , was promoted to the Niederlausitz district of the Southeast German Football Association , but was only seventh out of eight teams in the forest district. After the clean divorce in 1924, the TV 1861 Forst decided to continue to compete for the German gymnastics association , so that the footballers competed under the old name again. The German Gymnastics Association decided to hold its own German championship in football from 1925. In the championship finals in 1926/27 , Forst reached the final and became the German gymnastics champions with a 6-0 win over TV 1846 Mannheim . In the following years, however, it was no longer possible to build on this success. On the occasion of the German Fighting Games in Nuremberg on July 27, 1934, the reorganization of the entire gymnastics and sports system in the German Reich Association for Physical Exercise was announced. The German gymnastics association and its clubs were thus effectively dissolved.

In 1946/47 the soccer department of SG Forst-Mitte reached the final of the Brandenburg soccer championship, which was lost 2: 3 to SG Cottbus-Ost . From the 1948/49 season , the club played in the Brandenburg state football class , which was one of the five highest leagues in the Soviet occupation zone in the first season . For the 1949/50 season, the national class was only second class after the introduction of the Eastern Zone League , and one season later it was only third class. The games in the national class wore the club in the stadium of the unit . Progress forest was able to hold itself up to 1957 in the third division, now known as the Cottbus regional football division. After the reunification, the club, now again called TV 1861 Forst , was able to hold the 6th-class Landesliga Süd Brandenburg from 1991 to 2003. Forst currently plays in the lower leagues of Brandenburg.

Handball

Since the early 1930s , the department has been one of the leading handball teams in Brandenburg. After the introduction of the first-class handball Gauligen, the club played at least two seasons in the Hanndball Gauliga Berlin-Brandenburg. Even after the end of the Second World War, the playing strength could be maintained for the time being, so the club, now renamed Unity Forst , qualified as a representative of Brandenburg for the GDR handball championship in 1950 , but was eliminated in the hope round. In 1950/51 , the club, renamed BSG Textil Forst , took part in the DS field handball league, but was only eighth in season B. For the handball GDR championship 1953/54 the again unnamed in progress forest was again qualified, but lost both games against the BSG Motor Rostock and the SG Dynamo Halle . From 1955 the regular handball league was played. Forst ended the first season in fourth place in season I. 1955/56 the club played its second and last season in the handball league. A return to the top handball league in the GDR was no longer successful.
