Penzberg – AC Penzberg is 125 years old.
There will be celebrations from July 8th to 10th - with a wrestling tournament, 90s party, white sausage breakfast and club Olympics.
Peter Böck was the forefather of AC Penzberg.
In the inn "Zur Lüftn" on April 16, 1896, Böck was primarily responsible for founding the association.
"Because of a lack of financial means, club life was very difficult at the beginning," reported Ringer board member Bernd Dürr.
However, the first successes on the mat and the first district championship in Penzberg served as a springboard for the club.
The First World War ruined the club's efforts.
You had to start all over again.
The AC got new growth even in this difficult phase.
Boxers and weightlifters joined the club.
In 1925, a gym was built together with those responsible for TSV Penzberg.
The highlight of the club's history at the time: The South Bavarian Championships in wrestling and weightlifting were held in Penzberg in 1936.
Although you could establish yourself in the German wrestling circles, the weightlifters and boxers said goodbye to the club.
Program:
Friday, July 8
: non-public festive evening in the town hall of Penzberg
Saturday, July 9
: wrestling tournament in the wave pool hall (RSV Schonungen, RSC Inzing, SV Kempten and SC Oberölsbach), real eagle flies through the hall;
public 90s party with the Munich DJ team "Hyper Hyper"
Sunday, July 10
: Weißwurst breakfast, Club Olympics (with, for example, the Young Knights, OK Penzberger Fasching, Maxkroner footballers, Blaulichter Penzberg, and the city)
More information about the program and the 125-year-old can be found on the AC Penzberg website.
"The first team of AC Penzberg, on the other hand, went on from victory to victory and was able to fight for promotion to the 2nd Bundesliga, starting with the Landesliga, Bayernliga, Oberliga, and even at the end of the 1980s," says Dürr.
Over the years, women's gymnastics and Bambini training followed - in 2010 a support association was founded.
