history

Germania was founded on June 7, 1908 at the suggestion of the director of the local secondary school as the Papenburg student football club . In the same year the name was changed to VfB Germania Papenburg , before it later became FC Germania Papenburg . The first successes were achieved in the 1950s. In 1956, Germania rose to the district class and, after a 3-1 play-off victory over FC Schüttorf 09, made it through to the third-class amateur league 8 .

In 1961, Germanen under coach Heinz Conradi only narrowly missed the championship when the team received the equalizer in the decisive round in the game against SC Lüstringen shortly before the final whistle. “Stumbled 30 seconds before the goal” wrote the Ems newspaper about the game. A year later there was another stalemate between three clubs. This time the Germania was able to prevail against the TV Bohmte and Alemannia Salzbergen and rose to the amateur league Lower Saxony- West. 3,800 spectators, including around 2,000 Papenburgers, saw the 3-1 victory over Bohmte in the neutral Haselünne .

As tenth in the 1963/64 season , the qualification for the new, single-track state league Lower Saxony was missed. The team started with four wins in a row and welcomed 3,600 spectators at the game against the amateurs of SV Arminia Hannover and 3,000 spectators against TSR Olympia Wilhelmshaven . Radio Bremen made a live broadcast of the latter game. The Germania was then grouped into the Association League North and missed the championship in 1965 after a 2: 4 defeat in the playoff against Blau-Weiß Borssum . Goal scorer Wilfried Tittmann missed the game due to injury. For the 1965/66 season, the Papenburger were regrouped in the Association League West , where they met from 1968 on the local rival Amisia Papenburg .

In 1971, Germania won the championship after a 1-0 play-off win against Viktoria Georgsmarienhütte . In the promotion round to the national league , however, you had to let Prussia Hameln and FC Schöningen 08 go ahead. In February 1973, the club made headlines when a goal post broke in the local derby against Amisia Papenburg when Germania scored 2-0 . After a successful repair, supporters of Amisia prevented the restart by not clearing the field. In 1976, Germania was relegated from the association league and two years later had to join the district league. The reason for the decline was the neglected youth work and a mountain of debt amounting to 45,000 marks .

In 1980, Germania missed promotion to the district class when the team failed in the promotion round at SV Erika-Altenberge and Germania Thuine . Three years later, he was promoted to the district class. There the team immediately became runner-up behind BV Garrel and made it through to the district league. Although the Germanic peoples had to relegate directly back in the 1984/85 season as bottom of the table, but in 1987 they were promoted again to the district league. In the following season 1987/88, the team managed to march through to the Weser-Ems regional league . In the 1990/91 season, the team under coach Hermann Eiting fought long for promotion to the national league , but at the end of the season was only runner-up behind the amateurs of VfB Oldenburg .
