The SpVg Berghofen (officially: Spielvereinigung 1912 Dortmund-Berghofen eV ) is a football club from the Dortmund district of Berghofen . The first women's team was promoted to the 2nd Bundesliga in 2020 and qualified for the DFB Cup for the second time in a row .

history

The Berghofer soccer club was founded in 1912 . The founding members also included some members of the three years older Aplerbecker SC 09 . Berghofer FC then merged with Spielverein Berghofen in 1923 to form today's SpVg Berghofen. The club's home venue is the sports field on Berghofer Straße, where the game is played on artificial turf .

Women

In 2008, the Berghofer women's team made it to the state league. There the women played right in the top group and three years later made it to the fourth-class Westfalenliga . In 2015 the Berghoferinnen were runner-up in the Westphalia League behind Arminia Bielefeld . Two years later, the women secured the championship and promotion to the Regionalliga West. Also in 2017, the Berghoferinnen reached the final of the Westphalia Cup and lost 3-0 to the regional league club VfL Bochum on their own spot .

In their first regional league season 2017/18 , the women's team was on a runner-up course for a long time and so the club applied for the qualifying round for the single-track 2nd Bundesliga . At the end of the season they finished fourth in the table. In 2019, the Berghoferinnen won the Westphalia Cup with a 4-0 final victory over Sportfreunde Siegen . In the DFB Cup 2019/20 , the women defeated TuS Schwachhausen away with 5: 1 in round one . In front of 2,000 spectators, the Berghof women lost 2-0 to the reigning champions and cup winners VfL Wolfsburg in round two . SpVg Berghofen ended the 2019/20 regional league season as third in the table.

Since no women wanted to rise from the Regionalliga North, two women were allowed to rise from the Regionalliga West. The relegation of 1. FC Cologne from the Bundesliga prevented Cologne's second womanhood from being allowed to rise as regional league champions. So the Berghoferinnen moved up. The Berghoferinnen will play their home games in the Aplerbeck forest stadium , as the sports fields on Berghofer Straße are equipped with artificial turf .

Men

The men's team of SpVg Berghofen achieved their greatest success in 1956 when the team was promoted to the state league. It was the second ascent in a row at the time. Part of the successful team was Aki Schmidt , who moved to Borussia Dortmund after promotion . The Berghofer, however, had the misfortune that they remained fourth class despite the promotion through the introduction of the Association of Westphalia . After three years in the regional league, the Berghofer rose again in 1997, when the team finished second behind the amateurs from Borussia Dortmund at the Dortmund indoor city ​​championship. The Borussia won 10: 9 in the eight meter shootout. The Ruhr Nachrichten described the final as the most dramatic final in tournament history. On the field, the game association commuted between the district league and district league A and in 2018 was relegated to district league B.
