Volkssport

Emblem of Volkssport, inspired by German Sturmabteilung

The Volkssport (German Verband Volkssport, Nazionalsozialistischer Verband für Wandern, Radfahren, Spiel und Sport aller Art) was the paramilitary wing of the German National Socialist Workers' Party (DNSAP) in Czechoslovakia between 1929 and 1932, later operating illegally.[1][2]

It was founded on May 15, 1929 on the example of the Sturmabteilung by Hans Krebs and Paul Illing [de] under the guise of a sporting organization.[2]

It was banned on 22 February 1932 by Czechoslovak authorities.
