Club history

SV Kirchzarten was founded in 1922 under the name FC Kirchzarten as a pure football club. In 1926 the club was then incorporated into the Catholic sports federation "Deutsche Jugendkraft".

The National Socialist state dissolved the "DJK" in 1934 and the soccer group became an independent club again as the Kirchzarten sports club. After the Second World War, by order of the military government, all associations had to be dissolved and re-established under a new name. In June 1946 the members gave the club the name VfR Kirchzarten . In addition to soccer, other sports such as B. operated table tennis and athletics. The gymnastics department was added in 1960 and the ski department in 1961. From 1961 the club called itself again "Sportverein", in short: SV Kirchzarten. In 1970 a swimming department and an athletics department were established. In 1979 the volleyball department was added. In 1993 a new bike department was incorporated into the ski department.

Departments

The club currently consists of thirteen departments: football, table tennis, gymnastics / karate, ski / cycling, gymnastics, karate, triathlon, athletics, volleyball, badminton, basketball, health sports and the SVKfit.

Soccer department

Until the early 1970s, they played in the lower regional district classes. In 1973 they were promoted to the third-class first amateur league for the first time , from which they had to say goodbye after only one season in 1974 . In 1975 they immediately rose again and achieved an excellent 5th place as a newcomer . Starting in 1978, the SV Kirchzarten played by founding the Football Oberliga Baden-Württemberg  in the fourth-class Association League South Baden , in which he was mostly in the top places in the final tables until the mid-1980s. After relegation to the national league in 1987, a “lift” decade followed with several promotions and relegations between the association league and the regional league. From 1998 to 2010 the club was again a constant in the association league. This was followed by several descents up to the district league A (2013). In the 2015/16 season you could then win the championship in the eight-class Berzirksliga Freiburg and thus move up to the Landesliga Südbaden (season 2). There the sports club reached the promotion relegation round to the Association League South Baden as runner-up in the 2016/17 season, in which they failed and FC Singen 04 had to give priority.
