history

On June 1, 1906, the club was founded as FC 06 Hildesheim . This merged in 1919 with the FC Himmelsthür founded seven years earlier to form the lawn sports club 06 Hildesheim . Under this name, he was promoted to the then first-class district league Südkreis in 1923 . Since the lawn athletes could only celebrate one victory during the season, the team had to relegate immediately. It took until 1930 before the promotion to the now Oberliga Südhannover-Braunschweig, called the highest division, succeeded. At the same time, the RSV became the city's sporting number one.

The team immediately secured third place behind Arminia Hannover and Eintracht Braunschweig and qualified for the North German Championship. There they met Hamburger SV in the round of 16 and were only marginally defeated 2: 3. A year later, the Hildesheim team qualified again for the North German Championship with a 3-2 play-off win against VfB Peine . Here the RSV lost to Holstein Kiel and Union 03 Altona , but could defeat Phönix Lübeck .

In 1933, the Hildesheimers missed the re-qualification for the regional championship by a 2: 4 play-off defeat against Peine. The team was one of the founding members of the Lower Saxony Gauliga . There the RSV did not get beyond the relegation battle. In 1935, the team saved only the better goal quotient compared to SpVgg Hannover 97 and Viktoria Wilhelmsburg .

A year later, the team had to relegate despite surprising successes such as the 1-0 victory over champions Werder Bremen or the 3-0 against runner-up Hannover 96 . In 1937 the Hildesheimers failed in the promotion round to Germania Wolfenbüttel . Six years later, the team returned to the Gauliga as part of a war syndicate with local rivals Hildesheim 07 . During the Second World War , the sports field at the load mill was destroyed. As a consequence, the RSV merged with the Reichsbahn-SG Hildesheim in 1946 to form Borussia Hildesheim .
