The origins of the Brokstedt speedway team began with a club called Team 70 Neumünster who were founded in 1970 and were the first champions of West Germany in 1973. They played their home fixtures at the VfR-Stadion an der Geerdtsstraße (today called the Grümmi-Arena) in Neumünster.
In 1975, the Holsteinring was constructed and Team 70 Neumünster moved to the new stadium in Brokstedt becoming Team 70 Brokstedt. The team won further West German Championships in 1980 and 1981.[3] The legendary German rider Egon Müller rode for the club.
