history

On March 23, 1902, Velberter FC was founded in 1902 . BV Olympia 1906 Velbert joined this in 1914 . After the merger with TV 1864 Velbert in 1919, the club was called TSV 1864 Velbert . After only two years, the club split again, and next to it was SSV Velbert 12 and the TV 1864 Velbert the football club Velbert 02 . This merged on September 26, 1933 with BV 1907 Velbert (founded on June 9, 1907) to form VfB 02/07 Velbert .

The club played from 1922 in the league class and from 1934 in the district league, the second highest division in German football at the time. The sports and games association Velbert 1902 e. V. was created in August 1964 through the merger of VfB 1902/06 Velbert with SSV 1912 Velbert , which was the football department of TV 1864 until 1912.

Football league history

The bundling of strengths bore fruit and in 1969 the football lords achieved promotion to the Regionalliga West , the second highest division at the time. After only one season, however, the relegation took place in 1970. As from 1963 to 1969, they played in the third-rate Niederrhein amateur league until 1978 . Until 1975 they had always been able to stay in places 3 to 5, but the last three years they finished 14th, 10th and finally 12th. As a result, one missed the qualification for the new amateur upper league North Rhine formed by the amalgamation of several amateur leagues and was downgraded to fourth class. This class was held until relegation in the 1984/85 season, but this was followed by direct promotion.

In the 1989/90 and 1990/91 seasons, the SSVg was relegated twice in a row and found itself in the district league, from which they rose again the next year. In the following years the finances were then consolidated, whereby the SSVg is now debt-free and would get the license for the regional league without any conditions. In the 1996/97 season and in the following season you failed just about in the promotion round to the association league. In the next year, with 74 points after only five draws and two defeats, they were easily promoted to the Niederrhein Association .

In the 1999/2000 season, he was promoted to the Oberliga Nordrhein. At the end of the 2003/04 season the SSVg became champions, but the second Fortuna Düsseldorf rose to the Regionalliga Nord because Velbert had not registered for the higher division, as they were only fifth at the end of the first half of the season and were twelve points behind. Since the promotion, the SSVg has never been placed worse than fourth. In the 2007/08 season, the SSVg were about to qualify for the new fourth-class Regionalliga West, which was introduced by the league reform for the 2008/09 season. Fourth place had to be achieved for this. At the end of the season, however, it was only enough to place six, so that the SSVg competed in the also newly created fifth-rate NRW league in the 2008/09 season . On October 6, 2008, Feldhoff resigned as a trainer for the SSVg. He was succeeded in November 2008 by the former professional Peter Kunkel .

About half a year later, Marek Lesniak took over from the unsuccessful Kunkel as coach. On March 29, 2010, Lesniak resigned as a coach and Tino Reuchert took over the coaching office "until further notice". The new coach was then the former Bundesliga professional Frank Schulz , who had previously coached the league competitor Westfalia Herne .

In the NRW League, which was to be dissolved at the end of the 2011/12 season by association decision, they finished fourth in 2012, which entitled them to two qualifying games for promotion to the Regionalliga West against the top of the table in the sixth-class Westphalia League , SV Lippstadt 08 . Velbert won the two-way leg 2-1 and made the promotion to the regional league perfect. In the following regional league season , the game association reached with 47 points relegation, before the team had to relegate a year later as bottom of the table.

After Velbert surprisingly got the upper hand in the first round against the second division club 1. FSV Mainz 05 with 5: 3 on penalties, the team was only just eliminated in the second round against SSV Jahn Regensburg (1: 2 after extra time).

As early as 1938, the predecessor club SSV 1912 Velbert was in the first main round of the DFB Cup, which was then still known as the Tschammer Cup. They lost 1: 3 on August 28, 1938 against Grün-Weiß Eschweiler .

Later it went on September 10, 2006 in the first main round against the SpVgg Unterhaching after they had defeated the Wuppertaler SV Borussia in the ARAG Cup final 2006 at the local Sonnenblume with 1-0. In front of 3500 spectators, the two classes better Unterhachinger clearly prevailed 3-0 and destroyed all Velbert cup hopes.

Stadion

Until 1969 they played on the Am Wasserturmhochaus square . After the promotion to the Regionalliga West, they avoided the 10,000-seat stadium in Ratingen for the first seven games of the season . On October 5, 1969, the club inaugurated the Sunflower Stadium with a capacity of 13,000 spectators. The record attendance was recorded after just two weeks on October 19, 1969 with 12,000 spectators at the game against Wuppertaler SV . For safety reasons, the capacity was initially limited to 6,500 people. With the conversion of a standing grandstand into a covered seating grandstand, the capacity fell to 4,702 spectators. For the future it was planned to build a pure football stadium near the A535 , which should offer the spectators 4,000 standing and approximately 1,300 covered seats and which should be expandable up to a maximum capacity of 10,000 spectators. This construction project was postponed due to the budget consolidation program of the city of Velbert until the city's budget is balanced again.
