History
editThe club was founded in 1927 as Sporting Club Bettemburg. After the German occupation of Luxembourg in 1940, it was renamed FK 1927 Bettemburg and four years later it was renamed back to its original name.
In the 1947–48 and 1972–73 seasons, SC Bettembourg played in the highest Luxembourg league, Luxembourg National Division, for one season each. After relegation in 1973, the club moved between the honorary promotion and the fourth-tier 2nd Division. In 2024, the club managed to return to the top division after 51 years, four match days before the end of the season.[1]
In the Coupe de Luxembourg, the national cup competition, reaching the round of 16 several times was the club's greatest success to date.
