History
During the time in the GDR, the club won six national championships (1959, 1960, 1961, 1962, 1965, 1966) and won the GDR Cup twice. In addition, he won the EHF Champions League in the 1965/1966 season and defeated the Budapest Honvéd in the final on April 22, 1966 (16:14). In 1975, the authorities decided to dissolve the team and transfer all the players to another club in the city, SC Leipzig. On June 30, 1993, the handball department was re-established at the sports club. In June 1995, due to financial problems, the handball division was disbanded again. Finally, in 2007, the club revived for the third time at the lowest level of German handball. He returned to the Handball-Bundesliga in the 2015–2016 season.
