history
The association was founded on March 24, 1908 by students from the Ostendorf Ratsgymnasium in Holländer Hof on Langen Strasse. Borussia initially played on Kranenkasper. Two years later, Borussia rose to the B class. In 1910 there was a setback when the headmaster of the Ostendorf-Ratsgymnasium forbade his students from membership in the association. Three years later, Borussia rose again to the B class together with local rivals Teutonia. During the First World War the game was stopped.
After the end of the war, Borussia became champions of the A-class in 1921 after a 5-2 victory over SuS Ahlen and rose to the second highest league. Due to the hyperinflation in Germany, however, numerous top performers left the club and Borussia was only able to maintain the sporting level with a great deal of effort. In 1929, after a league reorganization, the club was relegated to the B-class and moved into a new stadium on Lipperbruchbaum. After two ascents in a row, Borussia reached the then second-class district league Ostwestfalen in 1935 . In the 1944/45 season the club formed a war game community together with Teutonia and the Luftwaffensportverein Lippstadt .
After the end of the Second World War , Borussia was promoted to the then third-class Landesliga Westfalen in 1952 , which was then the highest Westphalian amateur league. With placings ahead of Teutonia, Borussia took over the local leadership role again, before the team failed to qualify for the newly introduced Association League Westphalia in 1956 as seventh, five points behind SV Brackwede . Admittedly, the promotion there succeeded in the following season, but the Borussia had to leave the Westphalian upper house again after a year in 1958 .
Borussia developed into an elevator team . Between 1963 and 1966 and from 1967 to 1970 the club entered the national league, but never got beyond the relegation battle. In 1973 they were promoted again to the national league, where Borussia immediately became runner-up behind BV Brambauer . In the late 1970s, the team fell into the shadow of Teutonia, which meanwhile played in the Oberliga Westfalen for four years . In 1993, the Borussia rose to the bottom of the table in the district league. Two years later, the association began a youth cooperation with Teutonia, which finally led to a merger in 1997.
