The SG Post / Süd Regensburg (officially Sportgemeinschaft Post / Süd Regensburg eV ) is one of the largest sports clubs in the Bavarian city ​​of Regensburg .

Predecessor clubs

Logo of the Post-SV Regensburg

The older predecessor club Post-Sportverein Regensburg was founded on March 10, 1928 and set up its sports grounds in the west of Regensburg. After the Second World War , however, the sporting business was not properly resumed until 1950. Since the statutes of the Bavarian State Sports Association had forbidden the establishment of official sports clubs , the Post-SV had to give itself a new name and decided on VfL 1928 Regensburg . This ban was lifted in July 1952, so that the association returned to its old name.

The Regensburg-Süd gymnastics and sports community was initially part of the SpVgg Rapid Regensburg refugee association founded in 1949, but changed its name on April 28, 1950. On April 26, 1986, the two associations merged to form SG Post / Süd Regensburg . The Post-SV no longer had enough capacity for its 2,000 members, TSG Süd was able to boast this with the sports park on Kaulbachweg built in the 1950s, but had financial problems, so the merger made sense for both clubs. The new club colors yellow and green are made up of one color each from the previous clubs (Post-SV: blue-yellow; TSG Süd: green-white).

Football department

Nationally, the Post-SV caused a sensation only once when it took part in the first main round of the DFB Cup 1981/82 , but lost to Tennis Borussia Berlin in the Mommsenstadion 3: 4. In 1982, the first promotion to the fourth-class national league succeeded .

In 1986 the soccer department of the newly founded SG Post / Süd Regensburg took over the place of the Post-SV Regensburg. Ten years after it was founded, the club rose to the Bavarian League for the first time in 1996 as champions of the Central Regional League . The third place in the 1997/98 season was the best placement, they missed the promotion relegation to the Regionalliga by only two points. In the same year, the club reached the final of the Bavarian Toto Cup and qualified again for the first main round of the 1998/99 DFB Cup . Again Bayern were eliminated against a Berlin team - this time Hertha BSC - in front of 4,500 spectators, SG Post / Süd lost 2-0 in the Jahnstadion . For three years, SG Post / Süd was the city's number 1 football player, as SSV Jahn Regensburg only played in the regional league at the time.

After relegation from the Bayern League in 1999, Post / Süd again won the championship in the Landesliga Mitte in the 2001/02 season, but the football department joined the (meanwhile) regional league team Jahn Regensburg in the same summer and played as its second team in the Bayernliga. Since then, Post / Süd no longer has a football department. With the connection of the footballers, SG Post / Süd also ceded the sports park on Kaulbachweg to the Jahn, which has been the owner since then.
