ASK Vorwärts Crimmitschau was an ice hockey team in Crimmitschau, East Germany.

The club served as a replacement for BSG Crimmitschau, and began playing in the East German 1. Liga during the 1959-60 season. Crimmitschau then replaced ASK Vorwärts Berlin in the DDR-Oberliga for the 1960-61 season.

They were moderately successful in the Oberliga, finishing in third place in the league seven years in a row from 1963-1969. When the Oberliga was reduced to two teams in 1970, Crimmitschau became one of the many victims. A successor club, BSG Einheit Crimmitschau, was formed to play in the amateur DDR-Bestenermittlung.
