"Women's Inaugural football team", read the handwritten note. "Please show 3 March 1971 at 6.00 p.m. in Club Walter Junker" name after young Communist killed during the Spanish civil war.
This year, turbine Potsdam, which took its name from GE energy production company, won the first nine games, and finally six East German titles. Turbine survived the fall of the Berlin wall and the transition to capitalism, and went on to win the championship not only unified Germany five times — including the last three titles — but also two leagues of Europe is no longer divided by the iron curtain.
Three turbine players from the recently concluded season is about the German national team that reached semifinals of women's World Cup. The Germany will play Japan on Saturday in Wolfsburg.
By combining the traditions of the Academy of the East German sports with the sponsorship and the monument of culture of the capitalist football turbines has built one of the top destinations in the world of training for girls and women of football, drawing players from far away as Brazil and Japan. Yet the rapidly growing interest in women's football can hurt rather than help the group, as West German clubs with more money to lure the best turbine players away with higher remuneration.
Hundreds of fans gathered Tuesday evening in the 40th anniversary party for turbine on the shore of Templiner Lake outside Potsdam. There they watched Germany beat France, 4-2 in the World Cup, with the first goal off an assist from his own turbine Babett Peter. We heard them power ballads from the pop singer Ute Freudenberg, who joined West Germany in 1984, but is now back in the former East.
The largest write at night, however, were on the 68-year-old coach and Athletic Director, Bernd Schröder, you read that Note back in 1971 and offered to coach the team. Turbine has been with since then, with the exception of the one-year suspension from communist officials for letting the squad played teams from the West.
Mr Schröder said, "this is unique in the history of the world and cannot be repeated," Tuesday, a week after the Federal cross of honour, the highest civilian award in Germany.
"You can't find a single penny for it," he said about the medal. "We will beat the activist of the Socialist Labour six times and got 250 marks for each one."
The joke is that Mr Mauro has worked over the past 40 years without receiving a salary from the team. He lived until retirement as an engineer in the installation. A tall, charismatic coaches with a deep voice and unconventional presence, and onstage as it was Tuesday, Beazley is the symbol of the Club even more than the players. Supporters are worried about the future of the Club, after Schröder retires in a year.
"We do not want to discuss this now, but this is an issue that just calls itself," said Rolf Kutzmutz, 64, a friend of Schroeder since 1970 who is now Vice-president of the Club. "Not only is the head coach. The turbine is, "Kutzmutz said in a commentary by many fans to talk about the" Schrödi. "
Women's football was banned in East Germany, as it was from 1955 to 1970 by the West German Football Association, but neither this took much if any official support from the State. The East German sports machine, both famous for their swimmers and track and field doping athletes, chose to focus on individual sports to win more medals as possible for the glory of a country of just 16 million.
Football was not an Olympic sport for women, or there was a women's World Cup at the time. East German women's team played only one match and who came after the fall of the Berlin wall. At this point, the depth of involvement in steroids became apparent, as did the party and the participation of professional football Stasi men and other sports. Best male players went west. Women, who had to work for them anyway, remained a subsistence.
