history
The Wasserfreunde emerged from the two parent associations SC Spandau 04 (founded on June 12, 1904) and Spandauer Wasserfreunde (founded on June 26, 1911). Both clubs won numerous German championships in swimming and diving until 1963. In 1976 the two clubs merged. Since then, Wasserfreunde Spandau 04, the name of the merged club, has achieved numerous successes in swimming, modern pentathlon and water polo. So far, two presidents have shaped the era of water lovers: Norbert E. Kusch, lawyer and notary (1976–1996) and Hagen Stamm , former water polo player and businessman (in office since March 22, 1996). The track record shows around a hundred German championships and titles in swimming , high diving and water polo to date . There are also ten European championships and one world championship for the three disciplines.

history
As early as 1912, SC Spandau 04 was represented at the Olympic Games in Stockholm by the back swimmer Paul Kellner , who won the bronze medal over 100 meters and in 1913 the title of German champion over 200 meters. There were two silver medals in the 1936 Olympic Games in Berlin by Inge Schmitz and Ursula Pollack in the freestyle relay. Ursula Pollack crowned her international career as three-time student world champion at the 1939 World Games in Vienna over 100 m crawl , 200 m chest and 100 m back . Numerous successes in the German championships secured Spandau 3rd place in the club championship in 1937, which rose to 2nd place in 1939 and culminated in 1st place in Germany in 1940. However, with the increasing stress of the war, the heyday of swimming in Spandau inevitably ended. After the Second World War and the isolation of the city, Spandau was unable to keep up with the national leaders for many years. During this time there was only one championship.

Water polo
history
From 1922, since the first Berlin and Brandenburg water polo championship for SC Spandau 04 , the Spandau clubs "04" and "Wasserfreunde" have been competitors in the games for the German championship for years. At the German Fighting Games held in Berlin in 1922 , a kind of "German Olympic Games", SC Spandau 04 achieved 4th place. In the German championship in 1922, Spandau advanced to the semi-finals. In the following year, 1923, "04" achieved its best position between the world wars with a 3rd place. Spandau players were assigned to the Olympic squad in 1928 , 1932 and 1936 . However, they were not taken into account for the national team because of the formation of blocks from the champions Hellas Magdeburg and Wasserfreunde Hannover. After the Second World War, Berlin suffered from being "an island" for many years. Good players, according to the Spandau goalkeeper Günter Heine, who became an Olympic participant in 1952 , migrated to West Germany.
At the end of the 1960s, water polo was revived at the highest level in Berlin with the engagement of the Croatian coach Alfred Balen . In cooperation with Spandau's Olympian Wolf-Rüdiger Schulz ( Mexico 1968 ), whose appointment was linked to a short-term change to master SC Rote Erde Hamm , Berlin was able to become a German water polo stronghold. In 1976, the merger of the two Spandau clubs to form the new Club Wasserfreunde Spandau 04 led to an unprecedented high altitude in sport. From 1979 the championship and the cup fell to Spandau with unprecedented regularity and to this day (as of June 14, 2015) the Spandau team has won 34 German championships in 37 seasons and has won the German Cup 30 times in the same period. The national Supercup (champions against cup winners), a foundation of the Spandau water polo keeper Günter Schwill, was won 13 times in 15 draws.
1985 was the club's most successful water polo year: in addition to the German championship, the German cup and the German Supercup, the club also won the European Champion Clubs' Cup and the European Supercup.
In order to do justice to the special position in the national water polo, a new website has existed since February 2012, which provides all information about the 1st team.
