History
editThe club was founded in 1911 as SC Eibe.[3] The club merged three times over ten years. First, they merged with Harvestehuder FC in 1912[1] to form Hamburger BC 1911. They had a failed merger with SC Hansa 1911 in 1919 then merged with Eimsbütteler SC in 1921 to form Hamburg-Eimsbütteler BC.[4] They then merged with Sport 01 Hamburg during World War II but re-formed as Hamburg-Eimsbütteler Ballspiel-Club after. During these years, they were mostly in the second division of the Fußball-Bezirksklasse Groß-Hamburg (Football district class Greater Hamburg).[5] The club competed in the 1935 Tschammerpokal, but was eliminated by Eimsbütteler TV, 7:3.[1]
The club played in the 1. Klasse Hamburg from 1945 to 1947, which was the second highest class of West German football. They were relegated in 1949 and had dropped down to the fourth division by 1951. The club made it back to the third division from 1954 to 1957 then made it to the second division until demotion in 1960. With the creation of the Bundesliga in 1963, they remained in the third division. The team made it to the finals of the Hamburg Cup in 1982–83 but were defeated by Hummelsbütteler SV in the penalty kick shootout.[4][6]
The team struggled in the decades after, often staying in the sixth division in the 1990s[7][8] and 2000s. They were demoted to the 7th division in 2011 and had to fight off other demotion battles[9][10] before eventually making it back to the fifth division in 2017–18, where they play today.[11][12][13]
The club received the Uwe-Seeler-Preis erhalten (Uwe-Seeler-Prize) in 2016 for their contributions to youth football. Andy Grote and Uwe Seeler awarded the prize.[14] The club's indoor soccer team competed for the Laubvogel Cup in 2017.[15] The team hired Özden Kocadal as a head coach in 2019.[16] HEBC made significant upgrades to their facilities in 2020, with the installation of LED's and floodlights.[17]
The club's main rival is Altona 93, with matches between the clubs being considered a derby.[18][19]
