history
founding
A native of Vienna was decisive for founding a football club in Deutschlandsberg. Karl Altenaichinger senior teamed up with Leopold Fink and Josef Ziegler to hold the founding meeting of the Deutschlandsberg sports club on April 3, 1935. The first chairman of the association was the then district captain Dr. Wolfgang Mayer-Gutenau, Altenaichinger sen. became section head and secretary. The DSC was thus the 50th club that was accepted into the Styrian Football Association.
The first task of the board was to find a sports field. This was soon found with the Jahnwiese, but first had to be converted into a football field. The first game of the DSC in Deutschlandsberg then took place on May 1, 1935 against a GAK selection. The Graz team won 7-1, the first goal in the club's history was scored by Josef Ziegler.
On September 1, 1935, the DSC played its first championship game, which was lost 5-0 to Bärnbach.
In 1935, blue and orange were chosen as the original club colors. Orange fabric for dresses was still hard to come by at the time, so the decision was made inevitably for the closest variant: yellow instead of orange. Blue-yellow prevailed as the jersey color and was also adopted as the club color at some point. In the meantime, the DSC is playing again in orange away jerseys, which are supposed to remind of the roots of the club, for example in the 2016/17 and 2017/18 seasons.
Establishment as a traditional Styrian club
In the 1957/58 season, the club rose to the sub-league south. After relegation in the meantime, he was promoted again three years later, followed by the next championship title three years later. The DSC played in the Styrian regional league for the first time from the 1964/65 season, where 2,400 spectators came to Jahnwiese against Fohnsdorf in the first year. A number of spectators that has remained unmatched in a Deutschlandsberg championship game for over 50 years. Since then, the Deutschlandsberger SC has always played in the highest Styrian league with three interruptions. The DSC once secured the championship - however, in 1974, due to the introduction of the Bundesliga and an associated league reform, it was not allowed to advance.
In the ÖFB Cup you almost always dropped out in the first round, u. a. 1973 against Sturm Graz on penalties in front of 3,500 spectators. In the 1983/84 season, however, the first big hit: After defeating Ferlach 3: 1 and 1: 1, they were promoted 3: 2 over SV St. Veit for the first time in round 3. There they defeated the West Styrian Rivals ASK Voitsberg with 2-1. With a 1-0 victory over USV Rudersdorf, they were completely surprisingly in the quarter-finals, but there they had to go to SSW Innsbruck and were defeated by the Bundesliga club 0: 9 on March 20, 1984. In the 1990/91 season things went very far again in the cup: after victories against ATUS Bärnbach (2: 0), Wolfsberger AC (2: 1 a.s.) and DSV Alpine (1: 1, victory on penalties) received in the round of 16 Rapid Vienna. In front of 3,200 spectators, they lost 1: 3 (0: 1) to the record champions on April 9, 1991 in the Koralm Stadium.
In the same year the sports club was third in the national league. The success of the championship could never be repeated so far, instead it went back to the Lower League South in 1986. However, only for a year, and the ascent was immediate. The DSC played in the regional league for another twelve years before moving to the Oberliga Mitte / West in 1998.
The youngest years
They had to spend eight years there, and in the 2005/06 season they made an unbeaten promotion. This was followed by three years in the regional league and three more years in the league after relegation in 2009. In the same year, the DSC reached the final of the Steirercup for the first time, but lost it in their own stadium against FC Gleisdorf 2: 4 nV. Three years later they were in the final again, which was with a 2: 3 against the amateurs of the Kapfenberger SV was also lost, but thanks to the amateur regulation they qualified for the ÖFB Cup for the first time in 15 years. In the first round they lost at home to TSV Hartberg.
In the 2011/12 season he was promoted to the national league. After three seasons, the DSC won the championship title of the regional league 2014/2015 and has now been promoted to the regional league middle for the first time. At the same time, after three years, they secured a starting place in the ÖFB Cup 2015/2016. There they lost 7-0 at home to RB Salzburg in the first round, 3,500 spectators filled the Koralmstadion with an additional grandstand.
Since then, the DSC has played regularly in the ÖFB-Cup: With ranks 9 (15/16), 5 (16/17) and 8 (17/18) they established themselves in the Middle Regional League and thus always qualified for the cup. In the 2016/17 season, the Deutschlandsbergers also won the Styrian Cup for the first time with a final win on penalties over USV St. Anna (5: 3 in penalties , 2: 2 n.V., 1: 1). In the ÖFB-Cup there were further defeats against SV Lafnitz (1: 3) and RB Salzburg (0: 7), in 2018 the DSC celebrated their first cup victory in 22 years with a 4: 2 over SKU Amstetten. For the regional league duel with the GAK on August 10, 2018, 2,700 fans came to the Koralmstadion - a record number of spectators in a DSC league game:
For the 2016/2017 season, the club again founded a second team. In the first year the young team became champions of the first class west and rose to the regional league west. There they finished tenth in the table, but after the 2017/18 season the second fighting team had to be disbanded.

Venues
For the first five decades, the DSC played its home games on the venerable Jahnwiese. In 1984, the Koralmstadion to the north was put into operation, the area of which has served as the home of Deutschlandsberger SC ever since. At that time there was room for up to 4,000 people, 500 of them on a covered grandstand. The attendance record dates from August 4th, 1973: At the ÖFB Cup game between DSC and Sturm Graz there were 3,500 fans in the old Koralm Stadium. The first division won after a 2: 2 after extra time only on penalties with 4: 2.
In the new millennium, the training ground next to the old stadium was converted into a modern football stadium. A grandstand with 500 seats was built on the street side, and a further 2,000 standing places are permitted on this grandstand and around the playing field. This was converted to an artificial turf pitch. The new Koralmstadion, also known as the DSC Arena, was opened on September 17, 2004. In the first game on the new pitch, DSC beat local rivals from Frauental 7-0. The audience record in the new Koralmstadion is also 3,500 and was set up at an ÖFB Cup game: the first duel with RB Salzburg on July 18, 2015.
