The Welser Sportclub - Hertha Wels , or WSC Hertha Wels for short , is a football club in the Upper Austrian statutory city of Wels .

history
The WSC Hertha Wels emerged in 1975 from a merger of the SC Hertha Wels and the Welser SC . The SC Hertha Wels first took part in the highest Upper Austrian league in 1924. Hertha Wels was Upper Austrian Champion in 1964 and 1966, the WSC in 1972.
The club that emerged from the merger took part in the third highest division, the Upper Austrian regional league , like its predecessors . In the 1976/77 season one reached after victories against the Kapfenberger SV and the SV Flavia Solva the round of 16 in the ÖFB Cup , where one failed, however, at the Wiener Sport-Club . In 1981, WSC Hertha Wels had to relegate from the now only fourth-class regional league and move into the fifth-highest division, the 2nd regional league. In this one occupied in the group East in the 1982/83 season the last table rank, which one relegated to the sixth class district league. In 1989 you could become champions of the group south and thus rise again to the fifth highest division.
In 1991, as a runner-up, you just missed promotion to the fourth-highest division behind Braunau . In the 1996/97 season they were finally able to secure the championship title and rise again to the highest Upper Austrian league. In the 2000/2001 season, however, they only finished last and thus had to relegate to the 2nd regional league after four seasons in the regional league. In the 2002/03 season, the next relegation followed: As the penultimate of the West group you had to play in sixth class again from the 2003/04 season. After nine years in the district league, they rose again as runner-up in the fifth-highest division in 2011/12, from which they had to relegate in 2013 after only one season.
After another season in the district league, as champions of the group south, however, 2014 could be promoted back to the fifth division. After two seasons in the fifth-highest division, they rose in the 2015/16 season as champions of the Landesliga West for the first time in 15 years in the Upper Austrian League. In the 2016/17 season they finished ninth in the table and placed in midfield. In the 2017/18 season they rose to the regional league for the first time as runner-up behind ASKÖ Oedt .
After having given a place among the top four as a goal in the first season in the Regionalliga, after the first half of the season they were only in ninth place. At the beginning of April 2019, the promotion coach Stephan Kuranda was separated and the former Bundesliga professional Emin Sulimani was promoted to head coach until the end of the season.
