history

Early Years (1910 to 1967)

The club was founded on January 12, 1910 as FC Jülich 1910 . At that time the clubs Alemannia Jülich , Viktoria Jülich and Jülich Gymnasial Turn- und Spielverein merged . The latter was founded in 1903 as FC Juliacum Jülich . It was later renamed SC Jülich. Until the end of the Second World War, the club oscillated between second and third class. After the end of the war, the SC was promoted to the Rhine district class in 1947. In the first half of the 1950s, the Jülich were among the top teams in the league, but without having had any serious opportunities for promotion.

In 1958 it went back to the district class. With a 2-0 win in neutral Düren against TuS Eiserfey , the direct rise was achieved. The beginning of the 1960s heralded the most successful period in the club's history. After advancing to the regional league in 1967, he made the leap into the then third-class Mittelrhein association league . In the very first season, the Jülich came third behind the Bonner SC and the amateurs of 1. FC Köln .

Three times amateur champion (1968 to 1971)

With a seven-point lead over Borussia Brand , SC Jülich won the Middle Rhine Championship for the first time in 1969. For financial reasons, however, the club waived the promotion round to Regionalliga West . Club president Karl Knipprath did not want to take the risk. Instead, the club took part in the amateur championship , where the Jülich team moved into the final via 1. FC Pforzheim , Bremerhaven 93 amateurs and SV Göppingen . In the final, coach Martin Luppen's team prevailed 2-1 against SpVgg Erkenschwick in front of 12,000 spectators in Krefeld's Grotenburg Stadium .

In the following season 1969/70 the Middle Rhine Championship could be defeated undefeated. Again, the club renounced the possible promotion and moved into the final of the 1970 amateur championship via the Rheydter Spielverein , Arminia Gütersloh and VfL Neckarau . In the Siegen Leimbach Stadium , the SCJ prevailed 3-0 against the amateurs from Eintracht Braunschweig .

Although the club lost some top performers such as Herbert Mühlenberg to other clubs, the Jülich won the Middle Rhine Championship unbeaten in the 1970/71 season. Via the amateurs of Eintracht Braunschweig, Sportfreunde Eisbachtal and FSV Frankfurt , the team qualified for the third time in a row for the final of the amateur championship, which was won 1-0 in Würzburg against the amateurs of VfB Stuttgart .

Between third and fourth class (1971 to 1997)

In 1972 it was only enough for the runner-up on the Middle Rhine behind the Bonner SC. In the amateur championship , the Jülich first prevailed against FC Preussen from Berlin and only moved into the semi-finals after a penalty shoot-out against VfB 06/08 Remscheid . There Jülich's successful streak ended in a spectacular way against TSV Marl-Hüls . First of all, Marler won the first leg 6-0 on their own pitch, while Jülich won the second leg 6-0 after extra time . The decision was made 5-3 in favor of the Marler on penalties.

Coach Martin Luppen then moved to Fortuna Cologne and the Jülich team broke up. For the SCJ it was enough to third places in 1974 and 1975 before the team qualified for the newly founded Oberliga Nordrhein in 1978 . From this, the Jülich rose promptly from bottom of the table. As the club league championship behind SpVg Frechen 20 , they were promoted again, as first division champions 1. FC Bocholt were promoted to the second division . The following years were marked by relegation battle. In the 1982/83 season there was a 9-0 defeat at SC Viktoria Köln . An interim success, however, was winning the Middle Rhine Cup in the 1983/84 season.

After a fifth place in the 1984/85 season, he was relegated to the association league a year later . As champions, the Jülich team promptly returned to the top division. There the team did not get beyond mediocrity again. The highlights were fourth place in the 1989/90 season and a 2-1 win over Hertha BSC in the 1991/92 DFB Cup . Via SV Arminia Hannover , the Jülich moved into the third round, where the team only narrowly lost 1-0 to Borussia Mönchengladbach . A year later it went back to the association league.

Again, the direct rise and the Jülich were in the 1994/95 season third in the now fourth-class league. After it turned out that the long-time main sponsor of the club earned its donations by embezzlement , the club had to file for bankruptcy in September 1997 . The association was dissolved.

A successor club was founded under the name SC Jülich 1910/97 , which rose to the district league in 2002 and the state league two years later. Thanks to the sports presenter Ulrich Potofski and the DSF broadcast Kreisklasse , the Jülich family returned briefly to the national headlines. The immediate relegation followed only because of the worse goal difference compared to TuS Schmidt . There followed several years in the midfield of the district league, before a new calamity came over the club in autumn 2008.

An audit by the tax office revealed irregularities in the bookkeeping . As a result, debts of around 100,000 euros burdened the association, which then had to file for bankruptcy. The first team was withdrawn from the current game and had to relegate to the district league A. In 2010, he voluntarily withdrew to the district league C, the lowest division. In July 2012, the insolvency proceedings were successfully concluded. This freed the association from its debts.

At the beginning of the 2012/13 season, the Jülich high-tech company Enrichment Technology became a partner and jersey sponsor of SC Jülich 10/97, which was promoted to the district B league in 2013. In the following 2013/14 season, the team finished 16th and was relegated to the district league C. This was followed by two championships in a row, which led Jülich to the district league A in 2016. For the 2020/21 season, SC Jülich 10/97 and SV Jülich 12 formed the SG Jülich 10/12 syndicate . A later merger is sought.
