The club offers badminton , basketball , soccer, handball , judo , ju-jutsu , karate , bowling , athletics , cycling , swimming , table tennis , gymnastics and volleyball.

Men's soccer

The footballers of SV Warendorf succeeded in 1962 for the first time promotion to the then fourth-class Landesliga Westfalen . After only one year, the direct relegation followed as bottom of the table. The low point of the season was a 9-0 home defeat against Borussia Rheine . The promotion to the regional league succeeded in 1968. Two years later, promotion to the Association League Westphalia was within reach for the first time . Behind the champion SpVg Emsdetten 05 , the Warendorfer as well as 1. FC Gladbeck and Hansa Scholven came in tied. In order to determine the participant in group 4 in the promotion round of the national league second, a playoff round was set, which also ended with a tie between the three teams. Finally, the Gladbeck team came second by drawing lots .

After the merger, the Warendorfer remained a top team in their national league group. After the runner-up in 1974 behind TSG Harsewinkel , he was promoted to the association league a year later under coach Gerhard Wagner . There the team always fought against relegation. In the 1977/78 season , the Warendorfer took part in the DFB Cup. In the first round, the Sportunion won 3-1 in front of 1,200 spectators in the city stadium against the Saarland district league club FSV Hemmersdorf . Against the then second division club Freiburger FC followed after a 1: 4 defeat in front of 2,000 spectators, the end in the second round. In the association league, the Warendorfer remained a relegation candidate. In 1978 the qualification for the newly created Oberliga Westfalen was missed by far, so that the WSU footballers only played fourth class.

A year later, the Warendorf team reached their sporting zenith when they finished fifth in the 1978/79 association league season. Only a year later, he was relegated to the regional league. The direct resurgence was just missed. The Warendorfer ended the national league season 1980/81 in season 5 tied with SSV Mühlhausen . The playoff ended 3: 3 after extra time . In the replay, which was also played in neutral Hamm , Mühlhausen prevailed 3-0. In the following season 1981/82 the Warendorfer rose from the district league and were there in 1983 runner-up behind Westfalia Vorhelm . Three years later, the team returned to the national league under coach Ludwig Grove, but had to relegate after only one season in season 4. After a runner-up behind SVA Bockum-Hövel , the Warendorfer returned to the national league 5 in 1989 and immediately became runner-up behind Teutonia Lippstadt .

In 1992 the WSU was fourth in the regional league again, before relegation to the regional league followed three years later. This time the direct promotion to the national league succeeded, where the Warendorfer no longer got beyond mediocrity. For the 2002/03 season, the team was transferred to the national league season 4, where the relegation was only secured on the last day of the game by a 1-0 against the direct competitor Vorwärts Wettringen . The WSU returned to the national league season 5, from which it was relegated in 2005. Back in the district league, the team offered nothing more than mediocrity and reached third place in 2016. Two years later, the Warendorfer descended in the district league A. The home stadium is the city stadium.

The first women's team played in the district league for years and made it to the regional league in 2009. Two years later, the women from Warendorf were runner-up in the state league behind TuS Lipperode . The Warendorf women won the decider for promotion in neutral Dortmund 1-0 against Fortuna Freudenberg and were promoted to the Westphalia League. After two years in the midfield of the Westphalian upper house, in 2014, after a 4-1 win over Germania Hauenhorst, they were promoted to the Regionalliga West. The greatest success was the sixth place in the 2014/15 season . Four years later , the team had to relegate back to the Westphalia League as penultimate. Due to a lack of staff, the club withdrew its report for the 2019/20 Westphalia league season and is aiming for a restart in the state league for the 2020/21 season. For the 2020/21 season, however, the Warendorf women were divided into the district league.

In the Westphalia Cup, the Warendorf women reached the semi-finals three times, but failed in 2011 because of Sportfreunde Siegen , in 2013 at VfL Bochum and in 2014 at Germania Hauenhorst. The home ground of the WSU soccer players is the Volksbank Stadium, which is equipped with artificial turf .

volleyball

The WSU volleyball players made it to the 2nd Bundesliga North in 2002 . Three years later, the team celebrated their greatest success when they were runner- up behind the Köpenicker SC . In the same year the team also won the trophy of the West German Volleyball Association . In 2008, they were relegated to the Regionalliga West, before the team was relegated from the Regionalliga three years later without winning a point. The team was voluntarily withdrawn into the association league, from which they also relegated in 2013. The home arena is the sports hall of the Paul Spiegel Vocational College .
