Berliner won the Bundesliga title in 1974, for the first time since 1944, and won the title again two years later, in 1976.
In 1981 the ice hockey section was split from the main club, as ''Berliner Schlittschuh-Club Eishockey e.&nbsp;V.'' After just one season, BSchC had to withdraw from the Bundesliga due to financial problems. The club's team switched to the newly founded '''[[BSC Preussen]]''' that was formed together with the ice hockey section of [[BFC Preussen]]. BSC Preussen started in the [[2nd Bundesliga]] and later played in the [[Ice hockey Bundesliga|Bundesliga]] and [[Deutsche Eishockey Liga]] before dropping to lower leagues and folding in 2005.
BSchC remained as a club and started a new ice hockey section in 1983, in the fourth tier [[Regionalliga|Regionalliga Nord]]. Winning promotion in their first season, they played in the [[Oberliga (ice hockey)|Oberliga]] until they withdrew after the 1986–87 season. The team continued in lower divisions. In 1991, the ice hockey section of ''Berliner SV Akademie der Wissenschaften'' who had earned a place in the Regionalliga Nord joined BSchC. In 1992, the ice hockey section was once again split from the main club as ''Berliner Schlittschuh-Club Eishockey'' and played in the Oberliga and 2. Liga (both third tier at the time) in some of the following years. Later the ice hockey club rejoined the main club BSchC. In 2004, BSchC entered a cooperation with the [[BSC Preussen|BC Preussen]], the former ''Berlin Capitals'' who played in the Oberliga after filing for bankruptcy, for the [[2004-05 Oberliga season|2004–05 Oberliga season]]. The combined club played as '''BSC Preussen''' once again before folding after just one season. BSchC continued on its own in 2005.
In 2007, the main club Berliner Schlittschuhclub expelled its ice hockey section which was therefore reformed as a new club, first as '''Berliner Schlittschuh-Club 2007 Eissport''', then as ''Eissport- und Schlittschuh-Club 2007 Berlin'' ('''ESC 2007 Berlin'''). ESC played in the Verbandsliga, Regionalliga (4th tier), and since 2018 Landesliga Berlin (fifth tier). In summer 2020, ESC changed its name to '''Berliner Schlittschuh-Club'''. In 2020, the unofficial successor of BSC Preussen, ''ECC Preussen'', went bankrupt and folded. Their seconds side switched to BSchC. Starting in the 2020–21 season, BSchC has therefore fielded two sides in the Landesliga Berlin.<ref>[https://www.icehockeypage.net/index.php/chronik/2020-2021 2020/2021] on icehockeypage.net</ref><ref>[https://www.icehockeypage.net/index.php/chronik/2021-2022 2021/2022] on icehockeypage.net</ref>

Berliner Schlittschuhclub is an ice hockey team in Berlin, Germany. They are a member of the Berliner SC sports club, and currently play in the Landesliga Berlin. The ice hockey department was founded in 1908.[1]

The club has won a record twenty German ice hockey championships.[2]

History

The club was founded in 1908, and won the City of Berlin Championship in 1910. When the German Ice Hockey Championship was introduced in 1912, the club dominated, winning eighteen titles between 1912 and 1944.

After the Second World War, the club played under the name of EC-Eichkamp Berlin, before being renamed Berliner Schlittschuchclub again in 1951. As EC-Eichkamp Berlin, they finished as runner-up in the German Championship in 1947 and 1949.

In the 1958-59 season the club continued playing in the Oberliga, but did not qualify for the newly-founded Eishockey-Bundesliga. They remained in the Oberliga/2nd Bundesliga for most of the 60's, except 1966-67, before they were promoted to the Bundesliga for the 1972-73 season.

Berliner won the Bundesliga title in 1974, for the first time since 1944, and won the title again two years later, in 1976.

In 1981 the ice hockey section was split from the main club, as Berliner Schlittschuh-Club Eishockey e. V. After just one season, BSchC had to withdraw from the Bundesliga due to financial problems. The club's team switched to the newly founded BSC Preussen that was formed together with the ice hockey section of BFC Preussen. BSC Preussen started in the 2nd Bundesliga and later played in the Bundesliga and Deutsche Eishockey Liga before dropping to lower leagues and folding in 2005.

BSchC remained as a club and started a new ice hockey section in 1983, in the fourth tier Regionalliga Nord. Winning promotion in their first season, they played in the Oberliga until they withdrew after the 1986–87 season. The team continued in lower divisions. In 1991, the ice hockey section of Berliner SV Akademie der Wissenschaften who had earned a place in the Regionalliga Nord joined BSchC. In 1992, the ice hockey section was once again split from the main club as Berliner Schlittschuh-Club Eishockey and played in the Oberliga and 2. Liga (both third tier at the time) in some of the following years. Later the ice hockey club rejoined the main club BSchC. In 2004, BSchC entered a cooperation with the BC Preussen, the former Berlin Capitals who played in the Oberliga after filing for bankruptcy, for the 2004–05 Oberliga season. The combined club played as BSC Preussen once again before folding after just one season. BSchC continued on its own in 2005.

In 2007, the main club Berliner Schlittschuhclub expelled its ice hockey section which was therefore reformed as a new club, first as Berliner Schlittschuh-Club 2007 Eissport, then as Eissport- und Schlittschuh-Club 2007 Berlin (ESC 2007 Berlin). ESC played in the Verbandsliga, Regionalliga (4th tier), and since 2018 Landesliga Berlin (fifth tier). In summer 2020, ESC changed its name to Berliner Schlittschuh-Club. In 2020, the unofficial successor of BSC Preussen, ECC Preussen, went bankrupt and folded. Their seconds side switched to BSchC. Starting in the 2020–21 season, BSchC has therefore fielded two sides in the Landesliga Berlin.[3][4]
