history
Creation of the association
The association was founded on May 14, 1907 under the name 1. FV Viktoria 1907 Schweinfurt . In May 1926 it merged with FC Union 1909 Schweinfurt and was given the name that existed until it was dissolved over 80 years later. In 1928 they moved into the stadium on Hutrasen , which in 1941 had space for 6,000 spectators.
1930s and 1940s
In 1939 VfR 07 rose to the first-class Gauliga Bayern , in which he initially played for two years. In the first season 1939/40 the best placement was achieved with 9th place. In 1940 the club reached the second final round of the Tschammer Cup with a win against Mülheimer SV 06 , but had to admit defeat in this to the cup winners of 1938 and later German champions SK Rapid Wien . From 1942 VfR 07 played again for two years in Bavaria's highest league, which at that time was divided into a northern and a southern relay due to the war.
With Robert Bernard , VfR 07 provided a German national player in the 1930s , who played two games at the 1936 Summer Olympics . The 44-time DFB selection player and World Cup participant Andreas “Ander” Kupfer , who moved to local competitor 1. FC Schweinfurt 05 in 1933, also emerged from the club .

In the post-war period, the club could no longer build on its great successes. Contrary to the promise that every club could start again in the same class, the VfR was settled lower. Many players, including Robert Bernard, therefore migrated to FC 05, which was accepted into the Oberliga Süd .
After the football team was able to move up again for three seasons in the regional league Bayern-Nord at the end of the 1970s , they were then mainly to be found in the district league, later only in the local district league. The 90th anniversary of the club in 1997, for which the Backstreet Boys were engaged and performed in front of 25,000 visitors in the Willy Sachs Stadium, is worth mentioning during this period .
Sports on offer included after the Millennium next football still tennis and gymnastics . From June 2010 the soccer team played together with SC 1900 Schweinfurt as the Schweinfurt soccer team . In April 2011, VfR 07 Schweinfurt filed for bankruptcy. The sports facility at Hutrasen was rented to the Turkish Schweinfurt club Hilalspor Schweinfurt .
