history

VfB Kiel, founded in 1928, goes back to FV Hohenzollern Kiel , founded in 1910 , which merged in 1919 with FC Hertha Kiel, founded in 1911, to form the Hohenzollern-Hertha Kiel sports association . After the club went bankrupt in 1928 , the players formed a new club. The club was at the end of the 1930s several times close to promotion to the Gauliga Nordmark , but failed regularly in the promotion round. It was not until 1943 that the rise succeeded, then the club first played in the Schleswig-Holstein relay and then - due to a war-related further subdivision of the league in the 1944/45 season - in the Kiel relay before the game was completely stopped.

After the end of the Second World War , when the game resumed in 1945/46, the club initially played for the district championship East A , the top division at the time, where VfB achieved third place behind Eckernförder SV and Holstein Kiel . In the following year, VfB qualified for the Schleswig-Holstein state championship 1946/47 and failed there in the repeat game against Phoenix Lübeck - the first game had ended 1: 1 afterwards. After a merger with SV Brunswick Kiel , the club was briefly represented in the newly founded Landesliga Schleswig-Holstein 1947/48 (today's Schleswig-Holstein League) , after which it took until 1951 for the club to move up to this highest amateur class in Schleswig -Holsteins returned. After a third place behind VfB Lübeck and Itzehoer SV , the club slipped into mid-table in the following years and rose from the league in 1959. After the direct resurgence, the club stayed in the league for two years until relegated again. After two years of absence, the club made it again and immediately settled in the front area. As third in the table, the club took part in the German amateur championship in 1968, but was eliminated against Hammer SpVg . In the following year, the club moved as first in the league in the promotion round to the Regionalliga , there the club only missed promotion to the second division in a playoff against Olympia Wilhelmshaven . 1971 again league third, the club was again represented in the amateur championship, but suffered two defeats against SpVgg Sterkrade in the first round.

1974 rose the VfB Kiel as the penultimate of the table together with the Eichholzer SV and Schleswig 06 from the amateur league. In the following years, the team established itself in the fifth-class Schleswig-Holstein Nord regional league , which in the first few years operated under the association league . In 1985 the team knocked on the fourth league, but only finished second behind TSB Flensburg . At the end of the following season, they were promoted to the Schleswig-Holstein State League , in which the club established itself in the front area. In 1991 the club failed only in the promotion round to the league , but three years later the club failed to qualify as twelfth in the table after the introduction of the third-rate regional league and was thus fifth-rate again. After relegation to the sixth division in 1997, the club crashed in the following season in the seventh division and said goodbye to higher-class football. In the 2013/14 season, VfB Kiel secured their return to the Kiel district league with a goal difference of 146:30 goals and 30 points ahead of a non-promotion place.

In youth football, the Kielers were among the most successful clubs in Schleswig-Holstein, especially in the 1980s. The SHFV is represented three times at the German championships in both the A-Youth and the B-Youth. In this regard, VfB is the second most successful club in the regional association after VfB Lübeck (A-youth) and KSV Holstein (B-youth). The best performance was achieved by the A-youth in the 1989/90 season , which prevailed in the round of 16 after penalties against Hannover 96 and thus belonged to the eight best teams in Germany. In the quarter-finals that followed, the Kielers were clearly defeated by the later runner-up Hertha 03 Zehlendorf .

With the start of the 2018/19 season, the club should take over the women's football department from Holstein Kiel ; however, this plan was rejected again.
