According to the law, no football should be played at the WinterSportverein Samerberg in the Bavarian district class. Because: clubnames in Germany must meet the so-called name truth. That is, among other things, that he must not be fooled by their purpose. So far, so comprehensible. Only then do football gambling clubs such as the SC Tennis Borussia Rambach, the Men's Turnverein Burvern or just the WSV Samerberg exist?
You have to be glad that Germany does not conflict with the design of naming truth. That many sports clubs in Germany are mixed clubs, so unite several sports under one roof, is a stroke of luck, the different departments can benefit from the common club structures. In the name, however, is often only room for a sport - mostly the start-up of the club. Of course, confusion, this only ensures in the rarest cases, at most for a little mockery of the opponent. "One or the other leaves you out ever," says Anton Schober, Football Department Manager at the WSV Samerberg. "Free after the motto: What are you doing on the football field?" Everything is more fun as serious, as Schober stresses One in the region is not the only WSV.

Nevertheless, a kicking winter sports club is rather the exception. Overall, there are six in the Kicker database. Far more often immersed by football sports on behalf. Whole 2044 clubs and thus everyone pay attention to the FC in the name (to the scroll and zoomable card). To do this, spend more football shortcuts on the Germany map such as FSV (just under 440 times), FV (358) or FFC (33). No wonder the hip-hop band "the fantastic 4" at her smash hit "Mfg (sincerely greet) in terms of abbreviations also served accordingly in sports clubs.
Football clubs, short: FC, find themselves everywhere in Germany. Kicker / Datawrapper
On the other hand, a single time in the We database, the abbreviation Suff appears. "When we founded ourselves in 1992 as the counter team, because nothing else were we," says Jan Möller, chairman of the Suff Raßdorf, "of course we needed a funny and eye-catching name. The abbreviation Suff is just exactly that - for that, press the contents of the name, The "sports and leisure friends", exactly the at that time and even today's motto of our association exactly. "
Still in the 1920s, the Turnerverband set football championships
Incidentally, the FC is not the FC, but the SV (see info box). Nevertheless, in the dominance of football you have to remember from time to time that many of these clubs were not founded as a football club. Of course, for example, the TSV 1860 Munich has been lifted as a touring club and the SC Tennis Borussia Berlin as a tennis and table tennis club from baptism. And that at least at the TSV is still mourned.
At the top it is not even scarce: the abbreviation SV exceeds the competition easily. Kicker / Datawrapper
In fact, the most common "foreign sport" is in the name of clubs, in which (also) football is played, the gymnastics. Around 20 percent of the football clubs bear the turn sport, be it as TSV , TSG , Tus or in another modification, in the name - and thus more often than the football itself. Random is not . In addition to shooting in Schützenvereinen - the club sports, as we know him today, was created. Already in the early 19th century, first gym clubs founded, long before the first football club was founded in the 1870s.
As football at the end of the 19th and at the beginning of the 20th century became increasingly popular, many football departments were created in addition to independent football associations in gymnastics. For many football pioneers, it was easier to use the existing club structures in gymnastics instead of building a new club from the ground up. Even until the 1920s, the Turnerverband aligned its own football championships.
The unique selling point of the Westphalian association
It was not always harmonious. Many Turner saw the footballers as competition and tried to keep them in the club. Exemplary for this conflict is the history of MTV Munich, whose footballer plays in the county league today. The Turnverein founded a football department in 1897. However, when in 1900, a majority of club members at a General Assembly prevented membership of the MTV in the Association of South German Soccer clubs, some footballers of the association left protest the assembly. They founded the same evening an independent football club: FC Bayern Munich.
Despite the difficult ratio between gymnastics and football sport, there was always successful efforts to unite the two disciplines under one roof - and to express this in the name. Exemplary for this are the gymnastics and sports communities, short Tus or TSG . In them, the idea of the sport of sports returned to "Turnfather" Friedrich Ludwig Jahn should be associated as obtaining individual (and quite military) military ability with the English understanding of Sports as a competition. Also the abbreviation Sus (game and sports community) stands for the connection of multiple sports under a club roof. These integrating approaches were particularly successful in the room of today's North Rhine-Westphalia and Rhineland-Palatinate, where there are still a striking TUS and SUS today (see scroll and zoomable card). So it is no coincidence that the Westphalian is the only national football association in Germany, which exists in Verbands Union with the from athletics.
ideally also obeys the horse

Other sports next to football and gymnastics are often awarded in clubnames. Nevertheless, there is you: The already known Tennis Borussia Rambach is also the most famous Tennisverein Germany: Tennis Borussia Berlin. In football active table tennis clubs can be found, for example, in Lower Saxony (FTC Hollen) and in Hesse at TFV upper-hearing. And at the football and equestrian sports club Plöngen not only obeys the ball, but at best the horse.
But it does not always have to be a sport, other activities or hobbies come in the name. So there is soccer playing singing and sports clubs, numerous cultural associations and clubs in which just the movement is in the foreground. 264 PEOPLE FOR LEVEL ACCESS ( VFL ) Lists the Kicker database. At the new season, three of them appear in the 1st League - in Mönchengladbach, Wolfsburg and Bochum.
