history

Main club FC Düren-Niederau

FC Düren-Niederau was founded in 1908 as FC 08 Niederau-Krauthausen and later took the name FC Düren-Niederau . The greatest success in the club's history was the promotion to the Mittelrhein Association League in 1981. There, the Niederau team reached fourth place in the 1984/85 season. In 1991 the team rose again from the association league. In 2008, he was again promoted to the division now known as the Middle Rhine League, which, however, was followed by direct relegation. In 2012, the Niederauer were relegated to the district league, but were immediately able to rise again. The Niederau team were also successful in the youth field. The C-Juniors won the Middle Rhine Cup in 2005 and 2012 and the D-Juniors in 2000 and 2004. Johanna Elsig was U-17 European champion in 2009 .

Parent club SG GFC Düren 99

Merger partner SG GFC Düren 99 is the product of several mergers. The roots can be found in 1899, when the Germania Düren association was founded. This merged on August 8, 1935 with the Düren SC 03 to form SG Düren 99 . This club played in the 1930s and 1940s in the first-class Gauliga Mittelrhein or Cologne-Aachen and after the end of the war in the second-class II Division West. In the 1980s and 1990s, a sporty decline began that led the club to the district B league. With Karl-Heinz Schnellinger and Georg Stollenwerk , the 99ers provided two German national players . On June 29, 2001, SG Düren 99 merged with Schwarz-Weiß Düren to form SG Schwarz-Weiß Düren 99 . Six years later, the Schwarz-Weiß Düren association was re-established. On April 1, 2011, SG Düren 99 merged with GFC Düren 09 , which played in the fourth-class Oberliga Nordrhein from 2002 to 2007 , to form SG GFC Düren 99 .
