The Deutscher Reichsbund für Leibesübungen (DRL) was established on July 27, 1934, as the official Sports governing body of Nazi Germany. It would quickly become a formidable system within the German nation. The aims of the promotion of sports in Nazi Germany included hardening the spirit of every German as well as making German citizens feel that they were part of a wider national purpose. A more controversial aim was the demonstration of Aryan physical superiority. On December the 21st 1938, a decree was issued by Adolf Hitler changing the name of the Reich Sports Body to Nationalsozialistischer Reichsbund für Leibesübungen (NSRL), thereby “elevating it to an organization served by the NSDAP”. This name change meant that the NSRL would be “placed under” the Nazi Party. Free shipping ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD & I don’t charge PayPal fees like some of the other guys!
