The TuS Weibern 1920 e. V. is a German sports club from the Rhineland-Palatinate community of Weibern . He is known nationwide for his women's handball team, which competed in the 1st Bundesliga from the 2012/13 to 2014/15 season, at times under the name Vulkan-Ladies Koblenz / Weibern .
The Union
The club was founded on September 26, 1920 under the name "Turnverein (TV) Viktoria". The first handball team was set up just five years later. After the Second World War , the club was re-established in 1946, but regular gaming operations could not be resumed until 1954. Today there is next to the handball - also a gymnastics - and a bounce ball department . In total, the TuS has more than 500 members. The 1st women's team has been playing in the women's handball league (1st and 2nd league) for over 10 years. The first men's team has been playing very successfully for years in the top division of the handball federation of Rhineland. The handball men experienced their heyday after a series of runners-up in the Oberliga Rheinland, after they secured the Rhineland Championship in 1997 with 43: 1 points. In the following years the men played in the then Regionalliga West, Staffel Süd (often disparagingly referred to as Weinbergliga because of the many clubs from the Rhine / Moselle region). There the TuS Weibern was even able to qualify for the qualifying games (play-off) for the 2nd Bundesliga in 2001, where it failed at the later promoted Bad Salzuflen. In the then single-track Regionalliga West, the Weiberner then had to make their way back to the Oberliga Rheinland in 2004 and then played after relegation from 2006 in the Rhineland League. In 2013, the TuS Weibern voluntarily withdrew into the Association League due to personnel problems.
The handball players of TuS
Almost half a century after the club was founded, namely in 1968, a women's handball team was brought into being. First, the women played on a small field according to the indoor rules for championship points. In 1975 the sports hall in Weibern was completed and with it the final breakthrough for indoor handball. Until then, people had been swinging back and forth between the regional and regional leagues, but the success curve of the TuS handball players rose sharply from 1994 onwards: promotion to the upper league, marching through to the regional league and finally promotion to the 2nd Bundesliga in 1999 . After having consistently occupied top positions there in the first three years, in 2003 they even made it to the 1st Bundesliga . As a village club without much financial leeway, membership in the first division lasted two years before the defeats in the play-down games against SG 09 Kirchhof (25:34, 24:29) meant relegation to the second division. In 2005 and 2006 the promotion seemed to be within reach, but in the promotion play-offs you had to give way first to Frisch Auf Göppingen and then - because of an away goal that was not scored - to HSG Sulzbach / Leidersbach . But after deliberately renouncing promotion to the Bundesliga in 2010 for financial reasons, they dared to take the step into first class in 2012 when TuS took 2nd place in the newly created single-track 2nd Bundesliga, whereby the team was promoted directly to the 1st Bundesliga. In connection with the promotion, the club then decided to break new ground. The Robert-Wolff-Halle no longer met the requirements of the Bundesliga in terms of spectator capacity, light intensity and hall floor. The sports facility for home games is now the Conlog Arena in Koblenz . With the move, the women of the TuS Weibern, who had been nicknamed Vulkan-Ladies for two years, also officially became the Vulkan-Ladies Koblenz / Weibern. The average number of viewers tripled from 345 to just under 1100, the fourth-best average of the 2012/13 season in the league. The 2014/2015 season ended with 9:43 points (3 wins, 3 draws, 20 defeats), and after 3 years of Oberhaus they were relegated to the bottom of the table in the 2nd Bundesliga. On March 23, 2016, it was announced at a press conference that it would not apply for a license for the 2nd Bundesliga for the 2016/17 season. In the 2019/20 round, the team will compete in the Rhineland League, the fifth level.
