Charlottenburg Clubs Launch Free Youth Training Programs, Add New Teams
District programs and established sides such as SCC Berlin draw families into regular sport while a parent-founded club adds to the options.
How we reported this
The annual Talentiade Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf on July 4, 2026, brought 157 children to the Horst-Körber-Sportzentrum to sample different sports. That turnout highlighted the steady pull of organised youth activity across the district.
Weekly free sessions have run since May 2021 for ages 8 to 18. Families use these slots to build routines around football, boxing, badminton and table tennis without added cost. The format keeps children engaged year-round and gives parents reliable meeting points near home.
Fixed weekly sessions at named venues
Boxing for ages 13 to 18 takes place every Friday from 19:30 to 24:00 at Sporthalle Schloßstraße. MitternachtsSport e.V. and Hertha BSC run the sessions together. Badminton for ages 8 to 14 meets Tuesdays from 16:30 to 18:00 at the Haus der Jugend in Zillestraße 54, while table tennis for ages 8 to 18 follows on Thursdays at the same address and time. These recurring times let coaches track progress and let children train alongside the same group each week.
Borussia 19, started by parents in Charlottenburg, now trains children with 80 percent of members drawn from Nehring-Grundschule. The club is still looking for indoor halls and outdoor pitches to expand sessions.
SCC Berlin supplies scale and facilities
Sport-Club Charlottenburg e.V. counted 9,554 members on January 1, 2026, and offers 36 disciplines at Mommsenstadion. The club runs after-school care at two sports-focused primary schools in Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf and hosts community running groups that feed into its larger teams. Poelchau-Oberschule operates as the district’s Eliteschule des Sports, directing talented students toward club pathways rather than school leagues.
Parents can reach the Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf Sportamt at 030/9029 14505-14506 to learn which current sessions still have places. District flyers list exact addresses and contact names for each sport.
