history

The club was founded in 1919 and had the club colors blue and yellow. In 2000, Westfalia merged with DJK Eintracht Wiedenbrück to form SC Wiedenbrück 2000 . This shortened his club name after a decision on April 22, 2015 in SC Wiedenbrück .

Soccer

Westfalia celebrated its first major success in 1934 with promotion to the then second-class district league East Westphalia , where it met well-known clubs such as Arminia Bielefeld or Hammer SpVg . After only one year, Westfalia rose again as bottom of the table. After the end of the Second World War , the Wiedenbrückers rose to the district class in 1950. At the same time, the association moved into the newly created Jahnplatz . Two years later the Westfalia rose again from the district league.

The most turbulent times in the club's history followed. After the direct resurgence in 1955, he was promoted to the Landesliga Westfalen , which was the highest amateur league at the time. The 1955/56 season was characterized by qualification for the newly created Association League Westphalia . The first six qualified directly, while the seventh played off two more participants. With three points behind Borussia Lippstadt , the Wiedenbrückers finished eighth and remained in the state division. Together with local rivals TSG Rheda , Westfalia was moved from season 1 to season 5 and had to compete against teams from the Dortmund / Hamm region .

The Wiedenbrücker descended as the penultimate. The low point was a 7-0 defeat at VfR Heessen . In the following district class season 1957/58 the Westfalia was then passed through to the district class. It was not until 1962 that he was promoted to the district class again. After a third place in the promotion season 1962/63 it went down a year later and became the elevator team. In 1967 it went up again in the district league, where the team promptly became runner-up behind SpVg Heepen . Another runner-up followed in 1970, this time behind SC Verl . Two years later, the Wiedenbrücker went back to the district class.

The direct resurgence succeeded and in 1975 the Westfalia was again runner-up behind the amateur team of DJK Gütersloh . Five years later, the team was relegated again and moved to the newly built Burg Sports Center on the other side of the Ems . It was not until 1987 that the Wiedenbrücker returned to the district league. Two years later it went down again. In the mid-1990s, local rivals DJK Wiedenbrück passed Westfalia, which played in the district league for the last time in the 1996/97 season. In the meantime, the DJK rose to the state league in 1998 and the association league two years later.

Table tennis

The table tennis department was founded in the late 1940s and experienced its most successful period in the 1950s. In 1952, the team rose to the then first-class Oberliga West and played a total of four years first class. In the 1980s, the team reached the association league again.
