Handball
Field handball
From the mid-thirties on, the club, which was then usually abbreviated as BV Solingen, was part of the field handball establishment on the Lower Rhine. In 1935 the team rose to the Gau class, which was the top division at the time, and immediately came second. Until the Bergische clubs withdrew from the Gau class in 1941, three more runners-up titles followed on the Lower Rhine (1937, 1940 and 1941). From 1939 the club had formed a syndicate with the later merger partner Solinger FC 95, which was dissolved at the end of the war.
The people of Klingenstadt celebrated their greatest successes with two entries in the final of the German championship. In the 1963 final , the team known at the time as Oheios became German runner-up after a 6: 9 defeat in the final against VfL Wolfsburg . Two years later , in front of a record crowd of 35,000 spectators in the Wuppertal stadium at the zoo on October 24, 1965, a 15:14 after extra time against TSV Grün-Weiß Dankersen won the German championship.
After the Second World War , the BSV was one of the ten founding members of the Oberliga Niederrhein as the new top division in 1947, but was relegated in the first year. After being promoted again in 1950, the Solingen team remained in the top league until 1966 and qualified eleven times in a row for the West German championship from 1956 to 1966, including 1956 and 1966 as Lower Rhine champions. The West Germans were able to win the Red-Whites twice (1962 and 1965), two more times (1958 and 1963) they failed in the final. With the final move in the West German championship in 1966, Solingen qualified for the newly established Bundesliga, from which they were relegated in 1968 after two seasons. 1971 followed the descent from the meanwhile (1970) introduced regional league in the only third class league. After several top placements, the Solingen SC 95/98, which had now been created by merger, withdrew from the Niederrhein field handball league after the 1974 season.
Indoor handball
In indoor handball, the BSV first drew national attention by participating in the final tournament for the German handball championship in 1956 . In the small final, the Solingen team secured third place in a dramatic game in the second extra time after a 9: 8 win over last year's champions Frisch Auf Göppingen . Overall, the BSV was eight times Lower Rhine champion in the hall.
In 1967 the Solingen team secured the West German championship as Niederrheinmeister and rose to the handball Bundesliga for the 1967/68 season . With just one point behind RSV Mülheim, he was relegated to the Regionalliga West in 1969. Two years later, the newly merged SSC 95/98 rose from the Regionalliga to the Oberliga Niederrhein, from which it was also relegated the next year. This was the last appearance of the club in the higher divisions.
Soccer
The BSV footballers played first class from 1906 and qualified for the West German championship for the first time in 1907 . The Solingen benefited from the disqualification of Hilden FC 03 . In the west German quarter-finals, BV failed 3: 4 at Casseler FV . A year later, the team qualified as Bergischer Meister for the West German finals and failed again in the first round with 1: 8 at Casseler FV. The greatest sporting success followed in 1910 , when the team beat BV Gelsenkirchen 6-2 in the West German quarter-finals and failed in the semifinals 2-4 at Duisburg SpV .
After the First World War , the club slipped down into the second division. Only in 1932 was the chance to rise again, which was not used. After the Second World War, the BV was only active at the district level. With Ludwig Leinberger , the club produced a 24-time German national player who was also two German champions with SpVgg Fürth .
