history

In 2000 the clubs 1. FC Mühlhausen and VfB St. Leon founded a game community for girls. Having won numerous championships and cup victories, this syndicate quickly rose to become one of the top clubs in Baden girls' football. For the 2006/07 season, the syndicate under the name SG Hoffenheim / St. Leon for the first time a women's team under the direction of Holger Obländer and Udo Metz, which competed in the Baden regional league and promptly became champions. At the end of the season, the syndicate was dissolved and all teams were taken over by TSG 1899 Hoffenheim. The reason for this was that syndicates are not allowed in the upper game classes. For the same reason, the B-Juniors of the syndicate already competed in 2005/06 as 1. FC Mühlhausen and 2006/07 as VfB St. Leon in the Oberliga Baden-Württemberg, the top division at the time.

In the very first season as TSG 1899 Hoffenheim, the first team under coach Holger Obländer and Udo Metz became the superior champions of the Baden Association League, scoring 152 goals in 20 games. In addition, the Hoffenheim team created a novelty, as the first and second teams of the club faced each other in the Baden Cup final. The first team won the game 8-2. Also in the following season there was an internal duel in the Baden cup final. Since the Baden Cup finals only had the character of a training game, since the 2009/10 season each club has only been allowed to participate in the state cup with its first team. By winning the regional cup, TSG qualified for the DFB-Pokal , where the team was only defeated in the first round after a penalty shoot-out against the then second division club Bayer 04 Leverkusen .

Also in the top division 2008/09 season, the Hoffenheim team secured the championship with more than 100 goals and were promoted to the third-class Regionalliga Süd . In the first round of the DFB Cup 2009/10 , TSG defeated second division club FV Löchgau 2-0 and then lost to VfL Sindelfingen 0-1. The team also finished the 2009/10 regional league season as champions and made it to the 2nd Bundesliga South with their fourth promotion in a row. There the Hoffenheim women were first third and a year later second.

In the 2012/13 second division season , TSG had an exciting title race with 1. FC Köln . On the last day of the match, the two title contenders met directly in Hoffenheim. In front of 3,050 spectators, a new record for the league, the two teams separated with 3: 3 goals, whereby the Hoffenheim women made the promotion. During the season, the German record international player Birgit Prinz completed a few appearances for TSG.

As a result, Hoffenheim managed to establish itself in the Bundesliga. After 9th place in the promotion year, TSG finished sixth in the 2014/15 season . In the 2019/20 season, Hoffenheim was able to achieve third place in the Bundesliga for the first time. Then coach Jürgen Ehrmann stopped after twelve years.
