The Meerbecker Sportverein Moers 13/20 eV is a sports club from Moers . The club got its current name in 1978 when the “Rheinkamper Sportverein Meerbeck 13/20 eV” was renamed. The RSV Meerbeck was created in 1971 from the merger of TuS Meerbeck and DJK Meerbeck . The home ground is the Rheinpreußen Stadium in Moers.

history

The MSV Moers maintains the football, tennis and popular sports departments. A wide variety of athletes have come together in the popular sports department, including gymnastics, fistball, gymnastics, and athletics.

The roots of the club from the Moerser district Kolonie Meerbeck go back to the year 1913, when the gymnastics club Meerbeck was founded. At the same time, after the First World War, the Meerbecker Spielverein was established in 1919, and a year later the DJK Meerbeck and Vorwärts Meerbeck . After the National Socialists came to power in 1933, Vorwärts Meerbeck was dissolved and most of the members joined the gymnastics community. During this time the Meerbecker SV also got into serious financial difficulties, which were overcome with the great support of the Rheinpreußen colliery . At the same time, in 1935 the game club merged with the Meerbeck gymnastics club to form the Rheinpreußen Meerbeck gymnastics and game club, or TuS Meerbeck for short . The club colors changed from black and red to green and white. Meerbecker Cup appearances during this time were mostly limited to defeats in the first main round of the Gaupokal. From 1940 to 1942 TuS Rheinpreußen scored three times in a row against Grün-Weiß Viersen (2: 3), TuS Duisburg 48/99 (1: 4) and TuS Helene Essen (0: 2).

Under its old name TuS Meerbeck, the club achieved promotion to what was then the highest amateur class , the Lower Rhine State League, in the 1951/52 season . In 1956, after a league reform, the club missed the qualification for the newly founded Verbandsliga Niederrhein and stayed in the state league for another eight years. The 60s were characterized by variable success, relegations from the national league in 1964 and 1969 followed by an early rise. The club meanwhile played its games in the Rheinpreußen Stadium , which was officially inaugurated in 1959 in front of 25,000 spectators. Nationwide appearances in the West German Cup were the 0: 1 against Eintracht Duisburg in 1968 and a 2: 7 defeat in 1973 against Bayer 05 Uerdingen , the latter under the new name RSV Meerbeck . The above-mentioned merger of the TuS Meerbeck and DJK Meerbeck associations took place in 1971. Thanks to financial support from some major sponsors, an extremely successful decade began for the new fusion association from 1971. After the re- promotion , the first soccer team dominated the national league for a long time as the front runner in the 1972/73 season and it looked like a march into the Niederrhein association league , but in the end of the season the team ran out of air and competitor Olympia Bocholt won the championship and promotion. In the season 1974/75 the goal of championship was finally realized and the club played again in the highest German amateur class. In 1977, the RSV Meerbeck as third in the table of the association league narrowly missed the promotion round to the 2nd Bundesliga and qualified a year later for the newly founded Oberliga Nordrhein .

It was the heyday of Moers football: several thousand spectators gathered in the Rheinpreußenstadion. Against clubs like Rot-Weiß Oberhausen , 1. FC Bocholt , Bonner SC and Schwarz-Weiß Essen , however, the green-whites only held their ground for a short time. They stayed in the third highest German division for two years, then one relegation was followed by the next, and there were also great financial burdens. The club disappeared from the higher-class amateur football, in 1988 there was a tangible scandal when almost the entire national league team resigned due to arrears. After further relegations from the regional league (2005), district league (2006) and district league A (2007), the club played in the meantime in the district league B. In the 2008/09 season, the MSV Moers was second in the table and only narrowly failed to rise in a decider the runners-up were defeated by Concordia Ossenberg 0-2. In 2013 they returned to the district league A after six years after they had prevailed in the relegation against SV Büderich and SV Millingen. In 2016 the MSV became champions of the district league A and rose to the district league, from which they withdrew in 2018.
