The FC Höxter was a sports club from Höxter . The first soccer team played for three years in the highest amateur league in Westphalia.

history

The club, whose year it was founded is not known, was insignificant from a sporting point of view until the end of the Second World War . Only after the end of the war did the team experience a sporting boom. Thanks to the better supply of food , those responsible at FC Höxter were able to sign numerous players from the Ruhr area for the club. With the help of these external newcomers, the team was able to win the first district championship after the war and rose to the Paderborn district class . There the team was superior and prevailed in the subsequent round of promotion to the Landesliga Westfalen together with TSV Detmold against SG Bünde 08 .

Within two years, FC Höxter made it into the highest Westphalian amateur league. For reasons that could not be determined, however, the club was suspended until October 31, 1947, so that six games were scored without a fight for the respective opponent. Nevertheless, the team was able to secure relegation . With the currency reform of June 20, 1948, many of the hired guest players left Höxter again, which weakened the team. In the 1948/49 season , relegation could still be achieved.

As bottom of the table, the Höxteraner rose in the 1949/50 season from the state league. The 2nd regional league could not be held a year later. In both games against Borussia Lippstadt, FC conceded eleven goals. Financially badly hit, the team also rose from the district class in 1953. In the district league Höxter, however, the club no longer appeared and was dissolved in 1953.
