The VfV Borussia 06 Hildesheim (officially: Verein für Volkssport Borussia von 1906 eV Hildesheim ), colloquially often just called VfV , VfV Hildesheim or VfV 06 Hildesheim , is a football club from Hildesheim . The club was created on July 1, 2003 through the merger of the soccer department of VfV Hildesheim with the sports club Borussia Hildesheim .

history

Since VfV Hildesheim could no longer take responsibility for the financial risks of the footballers, the general meeting at the end of 2002 approved the motion to release the football department under the name VfV Hildesheim FC at the end of the 2002/03 season . The main club took over most of the debt, and VfV FC could continue to use the Friedrich-Ebert-Stadion and the existing infrastructure.

Three years before the anniversary, things were not going well for Borussia Hildesheim . Athletic played Borussia 06 long only in the lowlands of Kreisklasse Hildesheim and financially it was not ordered for the best. The board of directors was plagued by doubts as to whether the club would still be able to experience its 100th anniversary.

At the beginning of 2003 the idea of ​​merging the two traditional Hildesheim associations matured. Borussia 06 had its oldest predecessor club in FC Hildesheim from 1906, VfV FC in FV Britania from 1904. In addition to the league license and the management of the 1st team , the VfV footballers had numerous high-performing youth teams, but after leaving the main club no board. SV Borussia 06 had a functioning board of directors and, in addition to the regional league team, also had a number of junior teams.

In spring 2003, the idea was finally put into practice and the merger talks between the two clubs began. The members of SV Borussia 06 initially had great reservations about working with their larger neighbor. But the merger also meant the "promotion" from the district league to the Lower Saxony / Bremen upper league and thus into a division to which the club had not belonged for decades. Finally, “Borussia 06” was added to the name “VfV” and the members agreed to the merger on May 12th.

On July 1, 2003, the separation of the soccer department from the VfV main club was officially completed. The hope that had been cherished in between, that Concordia Hildesheim would also be the third traditional club in Hildesheim, was not fulfilled.

An advertising campaign was started to make the new club known to fans and sponsors. A competition for a club crest helped create a new logo. Outside the club and especially the city limits, the new name could hardly prevail, the club is still called VfV. From a sporting point of view, the merger of the two clubs came 30 years too late, as Borussia 06 was still playing in the district league in the 1970s.

In 2015, the Hildesheim runners-up in the Lower Saxony upper league were behind SV Drochtersen / Assel and thus qualified for the relegation games to the Regionalliga Nord . VfV 06 lost the first game of the promotion round at Bremer SV 1: 2. The VfVer (current marketing name: Die Domstadtelf ) were successful a week later in the home game against TSV Schilksee 3-2, were able to win the relegation round and move up to the Regionalliga Nord. So after eleven years they were fourth class again.

In the first regional league season VfV 06 started in front of 3,000 spectators with a 4-1 home win against FC St. Pauli II. In the further course of the first half of the season, however, the team was mostly on a relegation zone. The team, which was strengthened in some positions during the winter break, was only able to catch up with a successful streak in the second half of the season and slowly climb towards midfield in the table. The VfVer were also able to make up for a drop in performance towards the end of the season and hold the league with a five-point lead over a relegation zone. The long-time coach Jürgen Stoffregen then ended his career.

In the 2016/17 season Hildesheim played again against relegation under the new coach Mario Block. Block was dismissed five games before the end of the season. Jürgen Stoffregen returned for the remaining games. On the last day of the match, VfV secured a 1-1 draw against St. Pauli II while Werder Bremen II beat VfR Aalen in the third division . For the season 2017/18 was Jörg Goslar committed as a coach. During the season Goslar was dismissed and Thomas Siegel was hired as a coach, but he could not prevent relegation to the league.

In 2020, he was promoted to the Regionalliga Nord again as champions of the Lower Saxony Oberliga.
