history
In 1529 accounts of the Oberkircher riflemen with the prince-bishop of Strasbourg are documented. Little is known about the next few centuries and many documents were lost in a fire in the Oberkirch district court . Around 1660 the firing range was in the rear Loh. On July 2, 1827, the shooting range in Loh was sold by the city of Oberkirch. In 1864 the SV Oberkirch belonged to the Badischer Landesschützenverein. He was no longer listed in the membership register of 1910, so it can be assumed that shooting was at least temporarily suspended. From 1923, shooting was resumed on the grounds of the Kaiser brickworks in Fernach . The association had 53 members in 1925, and its first statutes were adopted in 1926.
After the Kaiser brickworks were sold, shooting began in Ödsbach in 1935, with new 25, 50 and 100 m stands and clay targets. A year later, the traditional royal shooting took place for the first time. On June 19, 1939, the last club championship was held with 19 participants. The last sporting activities before and shortly after the start of the Second World War were the royal shooting from 1939 to 1941.
The rifle house was confiscated by the French military during World War II . The official dissolution of the association took place on June 3, 1946 by the French military government. The club was later compensated for the loss. The compensation formed the basis for the restart of the shooting sport in the 1950s. Shooting was resumed on May 18, 1957. Between 1968 and 1973 the rifle house was built at its current location on Rench (today Raiffeisenstrasse).
In the 1980s, friendship meetings were held with the Suhr pistol section from Switzerland. During this time, the riflemen regularly fought friendship fights with SV St. Georgen in the Black Forest .

The new air pressure hall was built in the rifle house, as well as a new 25 m pistol stand at the end of the 1990s. In the course of the inauguration of the new air pressure hall in the spring of 1997, it was named "Kurt-Teuscher-Halle" after the marksman Kurt Teuscher who died during the construction phase.
From 1999 to 2001 the Black Forest Cup of the South Baden sports shooting association was held in the ball disciplines, and in 2001 the archery competition on the neighboring sports field in Oberkirch.
