History

edit

SpVgg Burgbrohl was formed on 13 March 1904.[1]

The football department of the club was formed in 1973 as SG Brohltal as a cooperation of local clubs SpVgg Burgbrohl, TuS Niederoberweiler and SV Glees and, for the first three decades of its history, has been a non-descript amateur side in local football. After 35 years, in 2008, the SG Brohltal was dissolved and the football team joined SpVgg Burgbrohl because as a Spielgemeinschaft, the team could not legally rise above the level of its local football association and therefore would have been barred from promotion to the Oberliga.[2]

The club earned promotion to the tier-five Rheinlandliga for the first time in 2003, a league it would play in for the next decade. Burgbrohl finished in the upper half of the table every season except in 2009–10, when it came thirteenth. The clubs era in this league culminated in 2013 when it won a championship and promotion to the Oberliga Rheinland-Pfalz/Saar.[3][4]

In its first season there Burgbrohl finished tenth in the league.[5]

During the 2016–17 season Burgbrohl finished last in the league. The goal difference of the last 17 games of the season was 3:216.[6] At the end of the season the club was considered the worst of all clubs in the first five levels of German football[7] and, following this unfortunate performance, subsequently withdrew its first team from game operations and has since played in the ninth-tier Kreisliga B.
