Volleyball in Weisswasser

Volleyball training center TSG KW Boxberg sports club in Weisswasser (Turn- und Sportgemeinschaft Kraftwerk Boxberg).

From 1975 to 1979 we have been a great Volleyball team playing for TSG KW Boxberg.

Training was 6 days a week, even twice a day during school holidays. The sports school was our big goal. There were many exciting trips to tournaments and training camps across the GDR. We had some real adventures, for example in the snow of Suhl, or secretly watching Winnetou, pulling the emergency signal on a train, living in weird accommodations e.g. in barracks, or in a school building (self-supplying). Because of my height, I was more meant to be a setter than a attacker - like my friend Maik.
