history

The club was founded in 1937 and was initially overshadowed by local rivals SV Bockum-Hövel for decades . After the end of the Second World War , the Arminia first played in the district class, from which they were relegated in 1948. The ascent followed three years later. At the same time, with the support of the Radbod colliery , the association opened the August-Rühl-Kampfbahn , which was renamed the August-Rühl-Stadion in the 1990s . In 1953, the Arminia managed to stay in the district class after a playoff round. Three years later the team rose as runner-up behind TuS Ahlen in the Landesliga Westfalen .

In the following season 1956/57, the Arminia managed to stay in the league only after a playoff win against Germania Hamm . In 1961, the club succeeded in changing power in Bockum-Hövel when the local rival SV Bockum-Hövel , who had just been relegated from the Westphalia Association , was passed on to the district class. Three years later, the Arminia itself rose to the association league and reached its sporting climax in the promotion season 1964/65 with eighth place. Two years later, the team rose back from bottom of the table in the national league and in 1968 only prevented relegation to the district class with a 2-1 win in the decider against TSG Rheda in the neutral Beckumer Römerkampfbahn . In 1971 Arminia Bockum-Hövel merged with SV Bockum-Hövel to form SVA Bockum-Hövel .

The SVA Bockum-Hövel stayed in the state league until relegation in 1975 and did not return until 1988. Three years later the SVA was runner-up behind BSV Menden , before the team relegated to the district league again in 1994 after a 3-1 defeat in the decider against Rot-Weiß Unna . After guest appearances from 1997 to 1999 and from 2004 to 2007, the SVA returned to the national league in 2008. In 2013, he was relegated to the district league again. Former Polish national players Andrzej Fischer and Zygfryd Szołtysik played for SVA Bockum-Hövel . On July 1, 2013, the SVA Bockum-Hövel merged again with Sportfreunde Bockum and Westfalia Bockum-Hövel to form SG Bockum-Hövel .
