The gymnastics and sports club Vahrenwald 08 was founded in 1908, initially only as a department of the Free Gymnastics Association Hanover (FT Hanover) for its members from the Hanover district of Vahrenwald.

From 1920 the association used the first club's own sports facility at the Vahrenwalder water tower . In addition to gymnastics, handball and fistball were now offered.

In 1928 the name was changed to the Association for Sports and Body Care Vahrenwald .

After the seizure of power by the Nazis in 1933, the association was banned and confiscated the association's assets.

In 1948 the newly founded association was entered in the association register with its current name .
