history

prehistory

After the peaceful revolution and in the course of the conversion to a market economy system, which led to the collapse of the BSG system , the GDR master of 1951 and 1964, Chemie Leipzig, merged with Chemie Böhlen to form FC Sachsen Leipzig in 1990 and from then on played in traditional chemistry Stadium, the Alfred Kunze sports park .

BSG Chemie as a sponsoring association of FC Sachsen Leipzig (1997-2008)

The "new" BSG Chemie Leipzig was founded on July 16, 1997 by supporters of FC Sachsen Leipzig as a ball sports promotion association Chemie Leipzig to protect the name and brand "BSG Chemie Leipzig" and to promote FC Sachsen Leipzig. This was achieved, among other things, by the fact that club members redesigned the back club room in the club restaurant "Sachsenstube" and converted it into a traditional room, or that "Care packages" - support packages to secure the youth department of FC Sachsen Leipzig during the bankruptcy of 2001 - were sold .

In 2004, the association's statutes were changed accordingly in order to enable the game to continue even in the event of the liquidation of FC Sachsen Leipzig. At the same time, the club was renamed the Chemistry Leipzig Ball Sports Association . Since then, according to the association's mission statement, the association has seen itself as an "option in the event [...] that the legitimate successor of BSG Chemie Leipzig leaves the value-based path or gets into other existential difficulties".

In the years that followed, tensions within the supporters of FC Sachsen Leipzig increased with regard to disagreement about the further path of the club. The move of the first men's soccer team from the Alfred Kunze Sportpark to the central stadium , the lack of communication with the fans, the ban on traditional flags or the suppression of the name “chemistry” were particularly criticized. At the same time, political disputes escalated within the supporters of FC Sachsen Leipzig, which culminated on November 11, 2007 in a physical argument during the away game against VfB Sangerhausen . As a result, the club members saw the case mentioned in the club's mission statement that FC Sachsen Leipzig “leaves the value-based path” as having arrived.

"New beginning" and stagnation (2008-2013)

The club therefore took part in the season 2008/09 in the 3rd district class , season 1 (12th league) for the first time with its own men's soccer team in the game of the DFB. After three ascents in a row, this team reached the Leipzig city class. After the 2010/11 season, the club took over the playing rights of the first men's football team of VfK Blau-Weiß Leipzig and was therefore able to compete in the Saxony League from the 2011/12 season in the Alfred Kunze Sportpark ; the men's team, which had been promoted to the city class, became the 2nd men's team. On August 12, 2011, it was decided to rename the club to its current name, Betriebsportgemeinschaft Chemie Leipzig . Also in 2011, FC Sachsen Leipzig was dissolved. After the end of the 2012/13 season, BSG Chemie Leipzig rose from the Saxony League to the District League North.

Three ascents in four years (2013-2017)

At the end of August 2013, a local derby with 1. FC Lokomotive Leipzig II in the District League North was canceled for fear of fan riots. In autumn 2013 there was a police operation at an away game in Zwenkau , where 500 supporters of BSG Chemie Leipzig supported the club. In February 2016, the Leipzig District Court sentenced a police officer involved to a fine for bodily harm in office, and another police officer who had been accused was acquitted. After the end of the 2013/2014 season, BSG Chemie Leipzig rose from the District League North back to the Saxony League. After the bankruptcy of SG Sachsen Leipzig, BSG Chemie Leipzig became the sole tenant of the Alfred Kunze Sports Park. The "old men" and the bowling department of the SG Sachsen joined the BSG Chemie Leipzig. In spring 2015, BSG Chemie Leipzig, temporarily leading the Sachsenliga, was one of the favorites for promotion to the NOFV Oberliga , but ended the season third in the table. A year later, on June 18, 2016, the team won the championship in the Sachsenliga before SV Einheit Kamenz and FC Grimma tied on points and promoted to the league.

On the third matchday of the top division season 2016/17, the newly founded BSG Chemie played their first competitive game against a team not from the Free State of Saxony in the home game against VfL Halle 1896 and won 2-0 (2-0). At the end of the season, BSG Chemie won the championship in the NOFV Oberliga (South) and thus promotion to the Regionalliga Nordost .

Younger development (since 2017)

On the third match day of the 2017/18 regional league season, the newly founded BSG Chemie achieved their first victory in the fourth-highest German division with a 1-0 home win against SV Babelsberg 03 . As a result, however, Chemie played a disappointing first half of the season, during which only 12 points could be earned in 17 games, which meant 17th place at the winter break. After the winter break, the chemists showed a clear improvement and scored 23 points in 17 games in the back of the season. Nevertheless, after a 5-0 (2-0) defeat against the second representative of Hertha BSC on the 33rd and penultimate matchday, the 16th place in the table was mathematically determined, which this season due to the simultaneous relegation of two clubs from the area of ​​the Northeast Regional Association ( Chemnitzer FC and FC Rot-Weiß Erfurt ) from the 3rd league to the Regionalliga Nordost was not enough for relegation and thus meant immediate relegation to the NOFV-Oberliga.

In the Saxon State Cup , on the other hand, the BSG was much more successful and won the state cup 1-0 (1-0) in the final against FC Oberlausitz Neugersdorf on May 21, 2018 for the first time in the club's history, which means they won the DFB Cup 2018/19 qualified. There she prevailed in the first main round against SSV Jahn Regensburg with 2: 1 (0: 1) and only had to admit defeat to SC Paderborn with 0: 3 (0: 2) in the second main round . In the Oberliga BSG Chemie again won the championship and thus the direct promotion to the regional league.

After a solid first half of the 2019/20 Regional League season, BSG Chemie overwintered in twelfth place in the table. She still occupied this place in the table after the 23rd game of the season, a 2-4 home defeat against VSG Altglienicke . Due to the COVID-19 pandemic that broke out in Germany at the time , it should have been the last game of the season; the season was initially interrupted and canceled on June 5, 2020, which means that BSG Chemie will play in the Regionalliga Nordost again in the following season.

Athletic career

BSG Chemie Leipzig took over the Sachsenliga playing rights of VfK Blau-Weiß Leipzig for the 2011/12 season, which meant that the previous men's team, which had been promoted to the Leipzig city class in the previous season, continued to play as the 2nd men's team.

The newly founded BSG Chemie Leipzig is not identical with its predecessor club of the same name and FC Sachsen Leipzig in terms of association law, but their successes, especially the GDR championship in 1964, play a major role in the club's fan culture and tradition. As a result of a resolution by the general assembly 2019, the association is currently examining the conditions under which the use of a corresponding championship star on the jerseys can be made possible.
