'''BSC Preussen''' was an [ice hockey](/source/ice_hockey) team in [Berlin](/source/Berlin), [Germany](/source/Germany), that existed between 1983 and 2005. They played in the highest German league from 1987 to 2001, reaching the playoff semifinals on seven occasions.
==History==
*{{see also|:Category:BSC Preussen Berlin players}}
BSC Preussen was founded in 1983 in [West Berlin](/source/West_Berlin).[[http://hockeyarenas.net/index.php3?page=4002&tmID=71&strSearch=berlin+capitals Club profile] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111007215027/http://hockeyarenas.net/index.php3?page=4002&tmID=71&strSearch=berlin+capitals |date=2011-10-07 }} on hockeyarenas.net] by the ice hockey sections of [Berliner Schlittschuhclub](/source/Berliner_Schlittschuhclub) and [BFC Preussen](/source/BFC_Preussen). The ice hockey section of Berliner SC had split from the main club in 1981 and folded just a year later. BFC Preussen had won promotion to the [2nd Bundesliga](/source/2nd_Bundesliga_(ice_hockey)) in 1983. BSC Preussen thus started out playing in the 2nd Bundesliga in 1983–84, and won promotion to the [Bundesliga](/source/Ice_hockey_Bundesliga) for the [1987–88 season](/source/1987%E2%80%9388_ice_hockey_Bundesliga_season).[[http://www.passionhockey.com/hockeyarchives/Allemagne1987.htm Championnat d'Allemagne 1987-1988] on hockeyarchives]
When the [Deutsche Eishockey Liga](/source/Deutsche_Eishockey_Liga) replaced the Bundesliga in [1994](/source/1994%E2%80%9395_DEL_season), BSC Preussen continued playing there. In [1995–96](/source/1995%E2%80%9396_DEL_season) they played as '''Preussen Devils''' before changing their name to '''Berlin Capitals''' for the [following season](/source/1996%E2%80%9397_DEL_season). The club was relegated in [2002](/source/2001%E2%80%9302_DEL_season). Due to financial difficulties, the club immediately dropped to the [Regionalliga](/source/Regionalliga_(ice_hockey)), the fourth level of German ice hockey. After just one season, '''BC Preussen''' won promotion to the Oberliga where they played the [2003–04](/source/2003%E2%80%9304_Oberliga_(ice_hockey)_season) season. Due to renewed financial problems, the club entered a cooperation with [Berliner Schlittschuhclub](/source/Berliner_Schlittschuhclub) in 2004 and played the [2004–05 Oberliga season](/source/2004%E2%80%9305_Oberliga_(ice_hockey)_season) as '''BSC Preussen''', before folding due to bankruptcy.
A successor club was formed in 2004, the ''Eishockey-Club Charlottenburg Preussen Juniors Berlin'' ('''ECC Preussen Juniors Berlin'''), renamed to '''ECC Preussen Berlin''' in 2012. They won the Regionalliga multiple times, played several seasons in the Oberliga and folded after bankruptcy in 2020.
