history
On June 15, 1912, the 26 founding members, who all belonged to a football team of the Morlautern village youth, founded the Morlautern game association in an inn. The original club colors were initially blue and white. As a result of the First World War, the game association came to a standstill, at the same time two more clubs were founded in the village of young people who had not yet been drafted into military service, but they did not come to regular game operations. After the end of the war there was a merger meeting on September 9, 1919 and the SV Morlautern was founded in 1912 and was also entered in the register of associations. Shortly afterwards, the club took part in regular game operations on a small playing area on the Kieferberg. The highlight of these years was the championship in the regional A-class in the 1925/26 season.
Even in the next few decades, the SVM did not get beyond regional leagues, only the club area developed steadily. A sports home was built and, from 1969, a grass pitch was built, which was inaugurated for the club's 60th anniversary in 1972. The aging old sports field was renovated at the beginning of the 1980s, received a floodlight system and was inaugurated as a hard court in 1981. Shortly afterwards, the SVM was able to celebrate the greatest sporting success up to that point, promotion to the then fifth-class district league for the 1982/83 season.
In the next few decades the club bobbed around in the lowlands of the district class and district league. It was not until the 2009/10 season that he was promoted from the district league. In the following playing years the direct promotion succeeded three times in a row, so that the SVM played for the first time in the Association League Southwest in the 2013/14 season . In the third league season, the SVM qualified as runner-up for the promotion games to the Oberliga Rheinland-Pfalz / Saar , which he successfully contested. In the first season in the league, the Morlauterer finished 12th in the final table. This season was crowned by winning the Southwest Cup . With a 2-1 final victory over the regional league team Wormatia Worms , the Kaiserslautern suburbs qualified for the first main round of the 2017/18 DFB Cup . There, after a 5-0 defeat against the second division team SpVgg Greuther Fürth in the Sportpark Husterhöhe in Pirmasens, the Morlauter team was eliminated from the competition.
