- The oldest hockey team in Germany, doesn’t look like you’d think it would.
Many athletes on the Schongau Mammuts play strictly for the love of the game, and still work their day jobs.
Founded in 1863 and the hockey club joining in 1951 the organization has felt the highs of promotion, and the sadness that comes with relegation. They currently compete in Germany’s Regionalliga the 4th level of ice hockey in the country. At the last minute just before the season started they signed my friend Matthieu and opened their doors, giving me access to the life of playing in their organization.

Special thanks to Seb for helping out with the German translations! Check out his hockey Instagram here: instagram.com/sebpurehockey/ EDIT: Hey everyone! Little correction on this video, turns out the organization was founded in 1863, and they added their hockey club in 1951! So, that wouldn't make it the oldest one. Special thanks to the ones who pointed this out!
What a fantastic experience! Thank you for taking us into the behind-the-scenes. Must have been so special to share this experience with a close friend! 😄
Also -- that steak sandwich looked fantastic.
Of course! Thank you for watching Sam really appreciate it and yeah that steak sandwich was unreal!
most fascinating hockey videos on youtube. i love the production quality
Thank you for watching! Much appreciated 🤝❤️
This video was awesome, what amazing insight, keep up the excellent content Robert!
Thanks for the kind words!
Keep these videos up! There so entertaining!
Glad you enjoyed 🙌
Robert your videos are second to none. Thank you so much for brightening my day ❤️
Thank you for such kind words! Really appreciate them, glad you enjoyed the video!!
Love your videos, thanks for the great insights!
Just one quick fact, the club itself was founded in 1863, as a sports and athletics club, but they actually only started playing hockey in 1951/1952. There are a lot of hockey clubs in Germany that started playing hockey way earlier. Cheers
Thanks so much for this, where did you find this info? Just want to read more on it!
You could check out de.wikipedia.org/wiki/TSV_Schongau or de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eishockey_in_Deutschland
Unfortunately there‘s no English version or just a very abridged one. Google translator etc. might help more with that.
@@spearmint2307 Thanks a lot, really appreciate this!
Moncton legend!
Hey Robert, thank you for this interesting Video. Im from Schongau and my uncle is actually playing for the Schongau Mammuts. His name is Steiner. I found you through your video about Nick Mattinen and i found it pretty interesting and well-made. Just as this video. This is even more interesting for me, cause it is my home :D Although it was pretty weird to see every-day-places like the trainstation in a video haha. Keep up the great work man!
That's awesome, I'm glad you came across the videos. Appreciate the kind words!
You don’t often see these lower leagues in different countries so I find this very interesting. I would love to see you join a college hockey team in the USA and Canada. I live nearby Quinnipiac in Hamden Connecticut which is the hometown of goaltender Jonathan Quick which would be fun to see a video on them. They have a great arena which is unique as it’s a two in one. One side is a 4,000 seat hockey arena the other is a 5,000 seat basketball arena back to back.
I’ll try my best! Some of the oldest videos on this channel are from my time with the University of Ottawa and Ottawa 67s!
@@RobertGreeley well you always have a hockey friend in Connecticut. There are a lot of great teams and venues here for a small state. Mattire Family Arena at Sacred Heart in Fairfield CT is also a great place as well it’s the newer arenas built in 2022 and their locker room could envy a lot of NHL teams
@@danielflynn8530 I appreciate that, thank you!
@@RobertGreeley Or Poland. I'll be coaching there next season.
Love these videos. Always dreamed about traveling Europe and visiting a bunch of lower divisional teams. As well as the top divisions of course 😅.
I think they're due for an upgraded arena 🤣 casually 161 years old
Thanks for the kind words! I’m not sure if the arena is that old tbh 😅
Come visit the „Beach Devils Timmendorf“.
@@leond6056 where’s that?
@@RobertGreeley 23669, Timmendorfer Strand, Germany. The „Beach Devils Timmendorfer Strand“ We Play in „Reginalliga Nord“ also one of Germany 4th leagues. We are directly located at the baltic sea. The next Season starts in October. The Website of the Team is: Beach-Devils de
That barn is awesome.
One of my faves!
Gut gemacht!! Sehr Schöner Bericht.
Danke!
Sehr cooles Video! Mach weiter so Junge.
Danke!!
at 5:52 that camera angle is the best!
Helps in the lower leagues when I get to be on the bench with the players for sure!
Junge gutes Video ! Bitte ein Video von Freiburg
Danke!
I honestly wish that do the handshake things after every games in the NHL because I feel like seeing the other team just celebrate on their opposing teams Ice is a little too much and causes a lot of overreaction
Interesting!
Will you do a video about a team in Switzerland soon?
It won’t be for a while, hoping to get there in December!
The GOAT producing another GOAT video! 🔥
Thank you Nick, much appreciated!
Founded in 1863, TSV Schongau (TSV = Turn- und Sportverein = Gymnastics and Sports Club) is, like most German sports clubs, a multi-sport club. In the early days, gymnastics was the main activity. Today, active members are also offered soccer, badminton, swimming and a few other sports. The ice hockey section, now known as the Schongau Mammuts, was founded in 1951. So this is by no means the oldest ice hockey club in Germany - not even close. And I think you know that too. Too bad, the video would actually be interesting enough, so there's no need for such annoying click-bait.
Honestly, I didn’t! Thanks for the info, when you look at the list for all the hockey teams in the league online it says it was found 1863, which is a later date than anything else listed for the DEL, DEL2, etc! Where did you find all this, would love to read more, thanks again!
@@RobertGreeley You can find all the information in a secret source called "German Wikipedia". de.wikipedia.org/wiki/TSV_Schongau
Always find lower pro towards semi pro way more interesting, what’s the kind of living, training and salaries for these like?
Germany 4 they’ll provide housing for you and it’s really only the import players who get paid a lump sum each month!
You have a lot of friends overseas haha
I do indeed, very lucky lolol
W video
Thanks Issac!
