The club colors are blue-black. Venue is the stadium Oberwerth in the same district Oberwerth . From the 2018/19 season, the first men's team will play in the Rhineland-Palatinate / Saar league .

history

The beginnings

Today's TuS Koblenz was created in 1934 as TuS Neuendorf through the merger of the Neuendorfer clubs TV 1864 and FV 1911 with the DJK and the Neuendorf workers' sports club. FV 1911, to which TuS Koblenz refers, was founded in 1919 under the name FV 1911 Neuendorf as the successor to the Neuendorfer clubs FC Deutschland (dissolved in 1917), FC Concordia 1910 and FC Alemannia 1912 (both dissolved in 1914). FC Deutschland is considered to be the nucleus of TuS Koblenz.

After the Second World War , TuS initially did not take part in regular gaming operations and only played friendly games. It took until October 1946 until the TuS was able to participate again in the league game (first game a 10-0 against SG Gonsenheim). In the summer of 1947, the military authorities had seen through the "swindle" with the naming (TuS = tennis and sports club) and announced a name change (SpVgg Neuendorf) as an edition. But only for one season, because the old prefix (TuS) could be used again in the following season. The association has had its current name "TuS Koblenz" since March 15, 1982. A few days later, "traditionalists" who wanted to keep the old name split off and founded TuS Neuendorf in 1982 . This club currently plays in the district league D.

The first Neuendorf club to compete for points in the West German Game Association (1920) was FV 1911 Neuendorf, which was the front runner every year from 1920 to 1932. In 1932 Neuendorf had to relegate for the first time in its club history. The TuS Neuendorf formed after relegation (merger of FV 1911 Neuendorf and TV 1864 Neuendorf) immediately managed to rise again and played a total of seven years in the Gauliga Mittelrhein and Moselland-Ost. Even after the two further descents in 1937 and 1940, he returned immediately. In 1943 and 1944 the Neuendorfer took part as Moselland champions in the final round of the German championship, but were eliminated in the first round.

post war period

TuS had its most successful time in the first ten post-war years, when it belonged to the top group of the Oberliga Südwest and was three times Southwest runner-up. In 1948 the Neuendorfer reached the semi-finals of the German championship (1: 5 against 1. FC Kaiserslautern in Wuppertal ). In 1950 and 1956 they also played in the finals, but didn't get that far. In addition, they were in the semi-finals of the DFB Cup in the 1953/54 season , but failed in the replay with 0: 2 at the eventual title winner VfB Stuttgart after wresting a 2: 2 from VfB in Stuttgart. In 1959, the club was relegated from the then first-class league. After returning in 1960, the Neuendorfer belonged to the lower middle of the table.

In the Regionalliga Südwest , founded in 1963 as the foundation of the new Bundesliga , the Neuendorfer never missed a season, but were rarely among the top flight. In 1968 and 1969 they took part as runner-up behind SV Alsenborn (tied on points in 1969) in the promotion round to the Bundesliga, but failed in their groups of five in the first year as third behind the promoted Offenbacher Kickers and Bayer 04 Leverkusen , in the second year as fifth behind Rot- Weiss Essen , VfL Osnabrück , Karlsruher SC and SC Tasmania 1900 Berlin . In 1974 the Neuendorfer clearly missed the qualification for the new second Bundesliga .

TuS was one of the top teams in the Rhineland amateur league. In 1976, a playoff (1: 2 against Eintracht Trier ) was necessary to decide the championship, in 1977 and 1978 the Neuendorfer were Rhineland champions in the regular season. They did not make it to professional football again, but qualified for the Amateur Oberliga Südwest, founded in 1978. TuS got down from the in 1981 .

The return to the highest southwest German league only succeeded in 1994 under the coach and former player Colin Bell , when this was only called Oberliga Südwest and was only fourth class as the substructure of the new regional league. In 1996 the people of Koblenz missed a promotion again. After a narrowly averted bankruptcy in summer 2003, the Koblenz team surprisingly rose to the Regionalliga Süd in 2004 , where they were one of the biggest surprise teams in the first half of the season. Among other things, home wins against last year's champions FC Bayern Munich Amateurs , SV Darmstadt 98 , FC Augsburg and the later champions Offenbacher Kickers . With 10,025 spectators there was a five-digit number of spectators against Bayern for the first time in decades on the Oberwerth, which was again outbid in the first round of the DFB Cup against Hertha BSC with almost 15,000 spectators in the summer of 2005 . In the 2005/06 season TuS Koblenz made the promotion to the second Bundesliga on May 13th perfect.

Four years in the 2nd division

Trainer Uwe Rapolder

In the second division season 2006/07 the TuS started with a strong first round, but got into the relegation battle in the weeks before the end of the season. After the separation from coach Milan Šašić , Koblenz under Uwe Rapolder secured relegation on matchday 33. In the 07/08 season, Mario Basler was Uwe Rapolder's second assistant. In the 2007/08 season , the DFL punished the club with the deduction of eight points at the end of the season and a fine of 200,000 due to non-submitted contracts in the field of match operations, which were of considerable economic relevance in the licensing process for the current season Euro. On May 8, 2008, the TuS and the DFL agreed on a deduction of six points for the 2007/08 season, but the club started the 2008/09 season with three minus points. Nevertheless, the 2007/08 season can be described as the most successful season for TuS in the second division. Until the point was deducted, you had nothing to do with relegation. Only two home games were lost in the entire season: against 1. FC Köln and Borussia Mönchengladbach , both of which were promoted to the 1. Bundesliga at the end of the season.

On October 19, 2008, TuS conceded the highest defeat in the history of the single-track 2nd Bundesliga with a 9-0 win at Hansa Rostock . Nevertheless, TuS Koblenz managed to stay in the league as fourteenth. In addition to many disappointing away appearances, they also achieved considerable victories, including a 5-0 home win against 1. FC Kaiserslautern, who had been the undefeated leaders in the 2. Bundesliga to date.

After a disappointing first round in the 2009/10 season, Uwe Rapolder was dismissed after a 3-0 defeat on matchday 16 at 1. FC Kaiserslautern. At this point in time, TuS was in 16th place in the table. Assistant coach Uwe Koschinat took over the team for one game, but could not avoid another defeat against rivals FSV Frankfurt. TuS finished the first half of the season with just 12 points in 17th place. During the winter break, Petrik Sander was introduced as the new trainer at TuS Koblenz. With him new players were also committed, which should help to save the TuS from relegation. Edmond Kapllani , Daniel Gunkel , Anel Dzaka and Andreas Glockner were new to the Oberwerth . Sander should at least lead the club to the relegation place in the second half of the season. Up to the directly saving 15th place, there was already a gap of seven points at the end of the first half of the season. On the 33rd match day of the 2009/10 season, after a 2-2 draw against Bundesliga promoted 1. FC Kaiserslautern, relegation to the third division was clear. In contrast, the second team of the TuS managed to move up to the top division of the Rhineland Football Association , the Rhineland League .

License waiver and relegation to League 4

The squad was completely redesigned for the 2010/11 season, only Johannes Rahn , Michael Stahl and Dieter Paucken remained from the previous season's squad, plus some young players from the second team's squad. Due to a sharply reduced budget and the club's debt, Sander relied heavily on young German players and only hired a few seasoned professionals. Sander received a new contract from the association to promote the rebuilding in Koblenz. New to the Oberwerth were Massimo Cannizzaro , Dennis Brinkmann , Lukas Nottbeck , Marcus Steegmann and Christian Pospischil as experienced players. They should stand by the young players with their experience and help to establish the TuS in the 3rd division and avoid further relegation. With a 1-0 win against Fortuna Düsseldorf in the DFB Cup, TuS played important money into the empty coffers. This made it possible to sign another experienced player in Manuel Hornig . Even more money was earned by winning the second round (2: 1) in the DFB Cup against Hertha BSC. The goal of the year came from Michael Stahl's 61.5-meter shot, which helped TuS make it to the second round of the cup, in which they lost to 1. FC Kaiserslautern 1: 4 (1: 0). The year 2010 ended the TuS in eighth place in the table, with two games moved to January 2011 due to bad weather conditions. In the second half of the season, TuS stayed away from the relegation battle and was even able to contemplate third place in the table for a short time. At the end of the season, however, there were no wins and Koblenz finished the season in eleventh place.

Already during the season there were increasing signs that the financial situation of the club and the GmbH, despite unpredictable additional income, e.g. B. from the DFB-Pokal , was still very tense. The long-time chairman of the supervisory board and patron of TuS, Walterpeter Twer, then sold the shares in TuS Koblenz GmbH owned by Mittelrhein Verlag GmbH for a symbolic euro to make room for new sponsors and investors. Since the TuS could not win a new investor, the TuS Koblenz 1911 e. V. 100% in the outsourced professional department, TuS Koblenz GmbH. Due to the unsuccessful search for investors, the TuS announced on June 7th, 2011 that the first team in 2011/12 would not play in the third division. On July 1, 2011 TuS Koblenz was approved by the DFB for the Regionalliga West . Almost at the same time, TuS presented a new trainer for the 2011/12 season, Michael Dämgen .

Attempted rebuilding in the regional league, relegation to the top division and bankruptcy

From September 2012 to August 2013 he was head coach of TuS Koblenz: Peter Neustädter

Due to the long unclear situation, TuS Koblenz was only able to start preparing for the new season late. A new team was put together under time pressure. But it quickly became apparent that the team was hardly competitive at the beginning of the season. With Mineiro a well-known player was signed as a leading player. Likewise returned Michael Stahl and Thomas Gentner for TuS back after they could not find another club first. The first half of the season ended the TuS Koblenz beaten in the last place in the table. In the second half of the season the team stabilized and was more successful in terms of the points won. A 2-1 win against SV Elversberg on the last day of the match prevented the club from ending the season in last place in the table. It was announced early on that Michael Dämgen should continue his coaching activity with the aim of rebuilding the team in the 2012/13 season.

After the license for the 2012/13 season was granted early on, Michael Dämgen and the club's management began planning the squad. With Anel Džaka , a former player returned to Oberwerth after stints at Rot-Weiß Oberhausen and 1. FC Kaiserslautern . He received a contract until 2015 and should act as a leading player in midfield. A new striker was also signed in Jerome Assauer . The squad was rebuilt after the weak pre-season and long-time players like Eike Mund , Tobias Bauer and Jan Hawel did not receive any new contracts or left the club at their own request. A single-digit table position was given by those responsible as the season goal. In the middle of September, TuS parted ways with head coach Michael Dämgen.

His successor was the former coach of the second team of FSV Mainz 05 Peter Neustädter . He made his debut on the sideline on September 21 and recorded a 1-0 win at Eintracht Trier in his first game . The season finally ended in eighth place in the table with 14 wins, 10 draws and 12 losses. In addition, Jerome Assauer was the best goalscorer in the league with 20 goals in 35 games.

On August 21, 2013 Neustädter was given leave of absence from TuS. His successor was the previous assistant coach Evangelos Nessos , who had already been responsible for the team as interim coach for two games in 2012. Until Nessos had the necessary license to lead the team, he was employed by the club's management as team boss. In the first game after the change of coach, TuS then celebrated their first win of the season with a 3-1 home win against SpVgg Neckarelz . But even under Nessos, the services of TuS remained changeable. After a weak second half of the season, TuS ended the 2013/14 season with 39 points in 14th place in the table.

In June 2014 TuS Koblenz succeeded in reducing its liabilities of around 4 million euros by 90 percent through a haircut. With this measure the bankruptcy of Spielbetriebs GmbH could be averted. In terms of sport, the first half of the 2014/15 season was sobering. By the winter break, the team was only able to collect 13 points from 20 games and overwintered on the penultimate place in the table. As a result, team boss Evangelos Nessos was released from his duties on December 8, 2014 after a 1: 2 home defeat against KSV Baunatal . Petrik Sander , who had already worked for TuS from 2009 to 2011, was presented as his successor . Sander received a contract in Koblenz until summer 2016. However, even under Sander the trend towards relegation could not be stopped. With 25 points after 34 games, TuS was in 16th place at the end of the season and, after the missed promotion of Kickers Offenbach and 1. FC Saarbrücken, was relegated to the Rhineland-Palatinate / Saar major football league .

In July 2015 TuS Koblenz announced that TuS Koblenz GmbH had to file for bankruptcy. The right to play for the first team in the football league Rhineland-Palatinate / Saar was previously on the TuS Koblenz e. V. transferred. Due to the existing structures, this was possible without any point deduction or other penalties by the association. On July 16, 2015, insolvency proceedings against the GmbH were opened. In the league, TuS was able to take a top position straight away and was one of the top teams in the league for almost the entire season. Two game days before the end of the season, Koblenz was already the champion of the Rhineland-Palatinate / Saar major football league and thus managed to return to the regional league immediately. After the successful relegation in 2016/2017, the TuS got deeply into the relegation battle of the Regionalliga in the following season. After two defeats at the beginning of 2018, coach Petrik Sander was finally released from his duties and the former TuS player Anel Dzaka was announced as his successor. Under the direction of the former player Dzaka, the TuS was able to convince athletically in the remaining games and made it to 15th place in the table at the end of the season. Since both Südwest representatives failed in the promotion games to the 3rd division, this was not enough to prevent the re-entry into the league. Shortly after the end of the season and the established relegation to the league, the TuS Koblenz eV also had to file for bankruptcy, which is to be saved with a viable restructuring concept. A cessation of game operations and a further forced relegation could be avoided. Despite the late start of the squad planning, the TuS was able to quickly establish itself in the upper third of the league during the 2018/19 season and ended the season in third place in the table. In addition, they made it to the final of the Rhineland Cup , where Koblenz lost to FSV Salmrohr on penalties. The insolvency proceedings were successfully completed in September 2019, and in December the members of TuS Koblenz elected their new board, with the long-standing fan representative Christian Krey being elected as the new chairman.

National player of TuS Koblenz

TuS Koblenz has produced three German national players in the course of its history. Together, the three players made 21 appearances in the jersey of the German national soccer team and scored 13 goals in international matches.

In addition, in the 1970s there was an amateur international TuS player Ludwig Scherhag . Furthermore, the young talent Philipp Langen strengthened the U-20 line-up of the German national team.

Well-known names

Oberwerth Stadium

The soccer stadium of TuS Koblenz in the Sportpark Oberwerth 2011

The TuS home games have been held in the Oberwerth stadium since 1946, which was called the American Stadium until 1933 , then Hermann-Göring-Kampfbahn until 1945 and Stade de Gaulle for a short time in 1945 . Before that, there was only the final round of the West German championship from Platz am Ufer in Neuendorf over the Moselle to Oberwerth. This happened for the first time on January 16, 1927, when Cologne's CfR won 5-2 at Oberwerth. After the Second World War, the stadium officially had a capacity of 33,000 spectators, although this was significantly exceeded in the games against FC Schalke 04 (38,000 - June 29, 1946) and 1. FC Kaiserslautern (40,000 - November 16, 1952). The supporters stood right up to the edge of the field, although many could only guess what was going on. Today it is only approved for 9,500 spectators. It is part of the Oberwerth sports park .

The stadium was built in 1920 as a sports field for the US occupation corps in Koblenz. Until 1929 it belonged to the US Army, so it could rarely be used by local athletes. In 1935, the main grandstand, which still exists today, was built, a reinforced concrete construction based on Bauhaus architecture. On the occasion of the promotion to the regional league, the back straight has been modernized in recent years. As part of the general overhaul of the stadium to meet the requirements of the DFL for the 2nd Bundesliga, turf heating was installed before and during the 2007/08 season, a new south stand with a roof for 2,900 spectators was built and the standing areas were fixed with precast concrete elements. However, the additional grandstands were dismantled for the 2011/12 season in order to save rent. The capacity fell from 15,000 to 9,500, with 2,000 seats and 7,500 uncovered standing places.

The record number of spectators on the Oberwerth comes from the league game against FCK on November 16, 1952, when 40,000 spectators crowded the sidelines.

Fan clubs

The ultra group Inferno Koblenz, founded in 2003, is one of the largest and most active fan clubs of TuS Koblenz. Other fan clubs include Blau Schwarz Hunsrück, Blueboys Kowelenz, Lahntal Indians and TuS-Schängel. The majority of the fan clubs have come together in the umbrella organization Koblenz Fan Club.

Fan friendships and rivalries

In parts of the fan scene there are contacts to Worms .

Due to heated and numerous duels in the upper league, TuS Mayen is considered the real "archenemy" of Koblenz. Since the two clubs have been separating a few leagues for a number of years, the last competitive game between the clubs was in the 2003/04 top division. Further rivalries exist with Eintracht Trier , 1. FC Saarbrücken and 1. FC Kaiserslautern . The rivalry with the Palatinate was further fueled by a point deduction by TuS Koblenz in the 2007/08 season, as the then relegation-threatened FCK benefited from the penalty of the Koblenzers who had already been saved and started a series of wins. At the end of the season, however, both clubs were able to celebrate relegation.

Placements since 1920

The FV Neuendorf 1911 only joined the West German Football Association in 1920. Since the club did not appear in the Koblenz schedule booklet 1919/20 (this booklet first appeared in 1919), it can be assumed that the club did not join the WFV until the summer. All the more surprising then is the fact that the club is already listed in the A-II class in the 1921–22 calendar. However, it could be that in these years the letter in the league name only describes the region where the game was played, because the reserve team of the FV kicked in the A-III league.
