The SC Weismain was a German football club from the Upper Franconian city of Weismain .

history

The club was founded in 1922 as FC Weismain and was renamed SC Weismain in 1945 . In 1985 the Weismainers reached the Landesliga Nord , before being promoted to the Bayernliga in 1995 . There, SC Weismain became champions straight away in 1996 and they managed to march through to the Regionalliga Süd . In the then four-track, third-rate regional league, they played against 1. FC Nürnberg , SpVgg Greuther Fürth , Kickers Offenbach , SV Waldhof Mannheim and SSV Ulm 1846 . During this time, the association was supported by Alois Dechant, a building contractor who was also president of the association at the time. In the 1996/97 season, SC Weismain finished seventh and 1997/98 eleventh. As a result of economic problems, the SC Weismain rose in the 1998/99 season after three years of regional league membership as penultimate in the Bayern League. There followed another descent in 1999/2000. Then the club was able to hold in the state league until 2002, before relegating to the district league. In the 2003/04 season, SC Weismain finally had to file for bankruptcy. SCW Obermain , founded in 2004, does not see itself as the legal successor to SC Weismain.

Stadion

The Waldstadion Weismain was built in 1945 as a sports field and expanded into a stadium with 17,000 seats by 1997. On April 12, 1997, the expanded stadium was inaugurated during the regional league game against the club . A sensational 17,000 spectators were counted at this so-called “Franconian Football Festival”.
