In the course of the dispute between gymnastics and sports associations, the footballers came back in 1924 to again SC Freiburg to build. The two clubs were reunited in the reorganization of organized sports.

After the Second World War, the first successor association of the gymnastics was created VfL Freiburg who got back the old name in 1949. In 1952 the footballers came out again and formed the existing SC Freiburg today. Hubert Pfaff was the first chairman in the club’s history.

Early days [ Edit | Edit the source text ]

SC Freiburg was in the shade of the then top club Freiburg FC for a long time. Before the introduction of the smooth people, the SC played no role nationally. For the 1933/34 season, the SC qualified for the new Gauliga Baden, but immediately relegated as the bottom of the table. Four championships in the district class of Oberbaden from 1934 to 1937 brought the SC four times into the promotion round, in which he missed the ascent every time. Only during the Second World War did the Freiburg make the leap into the Gauliga, which was increasingly fragmented.

After the war, the club was represented in the top division for five years, the Zonenliga Süd. From 1950 to 1978 his teams played in the third -class amateur league in Südbaden. In 1965 and 1968 the SC had the opportunity to climb the regional league south, but failed in the promotion round.

In 1974 the SC placed itself in front of the local competitor FFC as runner -up for the Amateur League South Baden. In 1978 the SC rose to the 2nd Bundesliga and met the rival FFC again, which had been represented in the second highest division since 1977. From the second season, the SC achieved higher table positions than the FFC. This rose in 1982, the SC stayed in the midfield of the second division table and has been the highest -classified Freiburg football club since then.

Green underlaid: promotion to the Bundesliga underlaid red: descent to the 2nd Bundesliga

In 1991 Volker Finke was hired as a coach who came from the 1st SC Norderstedt after he had previously led TSV Havelse to the 2nd Bundesliga in 1990. With Stefan Beneking, Jens Todt and Thomas Vogel, this three other players from Havelse brought them. Achim Sarstedt became assistant coach. For the first overall German season, the 2nd Bundesliga was divided into the seasons north and south with twelve teams each, whose first climbing up the top of the Bundesliga. After the SC Freiburg initially took 1st place and was also autumn champion, 1. FC Saarbrücken passed the promotion round of the promotion round, which briefly missed the climb. In the following long season 1992/93 with a total of 24 teams and 46 match days, the Freiburg took first place from the seventh day of the day and rose to the Bundesliga for the first time. The Breisgauer had scored 102 goals this season and stood at the top of the table for a total of 39 weeks.

The first Bundesliga season was characterized by the fight against relegation. Including a 4-0 win at VfB Stuttgart, SC Freiburg was able to win the last three games and thus pass the table at 1. FC Nürnberg, which only had to descend due to the poorer goal difference. The Freiburger showed a playful offensive style this season and thereby acquired sympathy nationwide.

In 1994/95, the tight class of class followed the best Freiburg season of all time. Particularly noteworthy is the 5: 1 victory of the SC about the FC Bayern Munich trained by Giovanni Trapattoni on match day 2. Freiburg stayed strong throughout the season, earned 20 wins and was in third place in the table at the end of the season. On matchday 32, Finke-Elf had a arithmetic chance of the German championship. 3rd place entitled to qualify for the UEFA Cup 1995/96, in which the Freiburgers deployed against Slavia Prague in the first round. In the following season, the SC could not keep the good placements of the previous season. Above all, the departure of playmaker Rodolfo Cardoso was a great sporting loss. In 1997 the Freiburgers relegated for the first time. After a year, the SC came back to the Bundesliga and reached the UEFA Cup again in 2001. After successes against the Slovak representative Matador Púchov and FC St. Gallen, the team was almost lost in December 2001 to the later UEFA Cup winner Feyenoord Rotterdam.

In the league, the Freiburgers slipped into the lower half of the table. At the end of the season they descended. In 2003 the return was released, the third relegation took place in 2005. This season, the SC only won three victories and 18 points and took the last place at the end of the season. This was the worst seasonal balance of a Bundesliga club since 2021 since the introduction of the three -point sail. In 2006 the SC did not make direct return for the first time.

The 2006/07 season in the 2nd Bundesliga started with a weak first half of the season. After the 0: 4 defeat against Karlsruher SC on matchday 16, the SC had only 16 points and was in the table 14. The club leadership announced that a change of coaching was decided in mutual agreement at the end of the season in 2007. Previously, coach Volker Finke was supposed to prevent relegation. ^[5]

A series of 13 games without defeat followed (eleven victories, two draws). The SC was now placed in 4th place, the ascent was again in close proximity. A 1: 3 defeat on the day of the match against Jena was a bitter setback in the promotion struggle. The sports club was now dependent on weaknesses of the competition. On matchday 32, SC lost 0: 1 against Paderborn at home with a goal in added time. The promotion space seemed burst. But the direct competitors Duisburg, Rostock and Fürth also lost, so nothing changed in the table constellation. The SC won the last two games sovereign, Rostock and Duisburg too; However, due to the poorer goal difference – as in the previous year – only 4th place was reached and the ascent was narrowly missed again. ^[5]

This strong second half of the season (with 41 points the most successful that a club had ever earned in the 2nd Bundesliga) gave some SC fans reason to found the initiative “We are Fink”. They aimed to initiate an extraordinary general meeting on which the coaching question should be discussed in order to keep Finke in Freiburg. ^[6] This concern failed, since the required 25% of the club members who were to apply for an extraordinary general meeting were not achieved.

The 16-year term of coach Volker Finke is the longest in German professional football. With him, co-trainer Achim Sarstedt also left the sports club after 16 years. Andreas Bornemann ended his work as a SC manager. Some long -time regular players also left the SC, including Aleksandre Iaschwili, Boubacar Diarra, Sumaila Coulibaly, Ibrahim Tanko, Sascha Riether and Roda Antar. Under Finke, SC Freiburg had its most successful time in club history.

In January 2001, the SC acquired the FFC stadium, the Möslestadion, to set up the Freiburg football school for promoting young talent.

Green underlaid: promotion to the Bundesliga

Robin Dutt became the new head coach for the 2007/08 season. Dirk Dufner became the new sports director. In the first season under the new trainer, the club played for the promotion, but only fifth place due to a weak phase at the beginning of the second half of the season. The way of playing changed noticeably under Dutt. If Volker Finke put special emphasis on possession and combination football, his successor prescribed a straightforward, result -oriented strategy to the sports club.

In the 2008/09 season, SC Freiburg had a relatively good start to the season; In the first seven games, five wins were recorded with just one defeat. At the end of the first half of the season, third place was taken. After the team had won six victories in a row at the start of the second half of the season, SC Freiburg took over the top of the table. On matchday 31, the Freiburgers made the fourth promotion to the Bundesliga and at the same time the second division championship perfect with a 5-2 away win at TuS Koblenz. SC Freiburg was the first team to receive the newly introduced master shell of the 2nd Bundesliga.

In the 2009/10 season, SC Freiburg secured the relegation prematurely by a 2-2 at 1. FC Köln on match day 33 and took 14 points in the final table with 35 points.

The 2010/11 season was quite successful for the SC, in the end 9th place with 44 points. In this phase, the Breisgauer were particularly able to rely on their striker Papiss Demba Cissé, who scored a total of 22 goals and thus took second place in the Bundesliga list of goalkeepers behind Mario Gomez.

The era stroke (since 2011) [ Edit | Edit the source text ]

Robin Dutt announced before the end of the season that at the beginning of the 2011/12 season, he would be the successor to Jupp Heynckes coach at Bayer 04 Leverkusen. Marcus Sorg was presented as the head coach as the successor. On September 10, 2011, SC Freiburg under coach Sorg had to accept the highest Bundesliga defeat in the club’s history; Freiburg lost 0: 7 away from FC Bayern Munich. Due to the unsatisfactory situation during the winter break (18th place), the sports club announced that he had come to the club’s change, since Marcus Sorg was planning the second half of the season without it. Maximilian Nicu, Manuel Salz, Felix Bastians, Kishō Yano and the long -time captain Heiko Butscher were affected. A little later, SC Freiburg announced that Sorg was released from all tasks with immediate effect. For the first time in his Bundesliga period, the SCF separated from a head coach. ^[7] The previous assistant coach Christian Streich was presented as the successor shortly before the turn of 2011/2012. During the winter break, the sports club separated from Papiss Demba Cissé, who switched to Newcastle United, against a multi -million dollar transfer. ^[8] Freiburg was able to improve greatly under Streich, so that on matchday 32 by a 0-0 against Hanover, the relegation could be secured. ^[9] In the second half of the season in 2012, the Freiburg scored 27 points, lost no home game and remained undefeated in a row.

Success also lasted in the 2012/13 season, the first half of the season ended in 5th place with two wins in a row. This was the trigger for a second half of the season, in which the Freiburgers were able to maintain relegation through relegation worries in the upper half of the table. In the DFB Cup, the team achieved the cup semi-final for the first time in the club’s history by away victories against Eintracht Braunschweig, Karlsruhe and 1. FSV Mainz 05 ^[ten] , in which SC Freiburg lost to VfB Stuttgart 1-2 away.

On April 22, after almost six years, sports director Dirk Dufner was separated; The ongoing contract was terminated by mutual agreement. Jochen Saier and Klemens Hartenbach from the Freiburg Football School became the successor to Dufner. ^[11] On May 10th, Christian Streich “long -term” extended his contract with SC Freiburg until 2014. ^[twelfth]

On the last matchday of the 2012/13 season, the club lost its home game against the table neighbor FC Schalke 04 and thus narrowly missed the participation in the Champions League qualification as fifth place. Since the DFB Cup winner FC Bayern Munich was already qualified for the UEFA Champions League as a master, SC Freiburg qualified directly for the group phase of the UEFA Europa League 2013/14. For the first time, the SC played its fifth Bundesliga season in a row. This successful season followed significant interventions in the squad. The players Jan Rosenthal, Johannes Flum, Daniel Caligiuri, Max Kruse, Cédric Makiadi were wandered off by Bundesliga clubs who were worse in the 2012/13 season than the SC.

In the 2013/14 season, the numerous players and triple pollution by participating in the Europa League group phase were noticeable. From the 4th matchday, the Freiburgers did not get out of the relegation zone and ended the first half of the season on a relegation place. Even in the Europa League, the results did not meet their own expectations, they were eliminated in third place with six points. In the DFB Cup, the Freiburgers were able to reciprocate in VfB Stuttgart in the first cup home game after four years for the Cup of the previous year. In the round of 16, the team failed on Bayer 04 Leverkusen, against which they were able to surprisingly win the subsequent second half of the season in the league. On matchday 32, SC Freiburg secured relegation prematurely due to a 1: 3 away defeat by Hamburger SV at FC Augsburg.

The first half of the 2014/15 season was not very successful for the Freiburg. It was noteworthy that the SC in the games against Hertha BSC, TSG 1899 Hoffenheim, Mainz, Paderborn and Hanover led at least up to the 87th minute, but still compensated in the final minutes or in added time. In this way, the Freiburg played 10 points, so that they spent the winter break in the last place in the table. In the second half of the season, SC Freiburg won against Eintracht Frankfurt, Hertha BSC, Augsburg and Cologne, so that after the 30th matchday, the club was 10th place in the second round table and in 14th place in the entire table. When the following game against the direct competitor Paderborn was lost after a tour and a week later in Hamburg in the 90th minute, the relegation candidates in the table were close together, so that the SC only the better goal difference from a direct Separated relegation zone. Since the game against Bayern was still imminent, against which had not been won for 19 years, this was a rather unfavorable starting point for the last two game days. The SC was surprisingly won against Bayern, but since Stuttgart and Hanover also introduced victories, the decision in the relegation battle was postponed to the last match day. The Freiburgers had the best starting point, because with a draw in Hanover, the relegation would have been safe. And even in the event of a defeat, both Stuttgart and Hamburg would have had to win their games at the same time so that the SC could still slip on a direct relegation zone. Exactly this scenario came in and so the SC Freiburg ended the season as the penultimate and thus relegated to the 2nd Bundesliga after six years of Bundesliga. Throughout the season, the sports club gave away a win in the final minutes in six games and shot a penalty in another three 0: 0 games. Depending on the calculation, Christian Streich’s team was “missing” between twelve and 18 points, which is why quite a few observers from the “unnecessary descent of all time” ^[13] languages.

Due to the relegation, there was another upheaval in the squad. The players Roman Bürki, Vladimír Darida, Felix Klaus, Admir Mehmedi, Sascha Riether, Oliver Sorg and Jonathan Schmid switched to various first division teams.

In the following season 2015/16, SC Freiburg secured the new promotion to the Bundesliga after a 1-2 away win against SC Paderborn 07. On match day 3, the team was against a 2-0 victory against 1. FC Heidenheim for the fourth time champions of the 2nd Bundesliga. The core of the promotion team was preserved in the following season, and the team reached the 7th place in the final table of the Bundesliga despite a strongly negative goal difference. Since the third in the table Borussia Dortmund won the DFB Cup, this 7th place entitled SC to participate in the third qualification round for UEFA Europa League. There they met the NK Domžale from Slovenia. A 1-0 in the first leg followed a 0: 2, so that the qualification for the group phase of the Europa League was missed. The subsequent Bundesliga season was more difficult than the previous one, which was due to the departures of Vincenzo Grifo and Maximilian Philipp. The latter switched to Borussia Dortmund for 20 million euros, which represents a club record with regard to the transfer sum achieved. In the first half of the season, the SC had to accept at least three goals with one exception in every away game. The only away win of the season was achieved against 1. FC Köln when a 4: 3 win was earned despite a 0: 3 deficit. In the second half of the season, the SC was more defensive, but with major problems on the offensive. The relegation was only secured on the last matchday with a win against FC Augsburg. The outstanding player was Nils Petersen with 15 goals and 2nd place in the scorer list. Petersen scored almost half of all Freiburg goals (15 out of 32) and was the best German scorer in the league.

SC experienced the 2018/19, 2019/20 and 2020/21 seasons without relegation worries in secure midfield. In 2018/19, the club made a 1-1 win against FC Bayern twice. In 2019/20, the Badeners stood on the top half of the table on all match days and ended the season in eighth place. The 2021/22 season was very successful. The SC was undefeated until the 10th matchday, the club suffered its first defeat of the defeat on matchday 11 against FC Bayern. On matchday 14, the SCF won 6: 0 in Mönchengladbach. It was the highest league victory of the Breisgauer. With five goals in the first 25 minutes of the game, the sports club set a league record as a guest team. ^[14] On the last game day of the first half of the season, the Badeners moved to third with a 2-1 win over Leverkusen. With 29 points, the SC played its second best first round in the upper house. A Champions League-Platz was always in the area of ​​the possible. In the end, the qualification for the Europa League was the sixth. In addition, the final in the DFB Cup could be reached for the first time.

In the 2022/23 season, SC took over the top of the table in the Bundesliga for the second time on match day 5. ^[15]

In addition to the A teams, there are young teams from the U12 to the U19. The young talent center, the Freiburg football school, is the center of the youth work.

Successes:

The women’s football department of SC Freiburg has existed since 1975. In the 2022/23 season, it comprises two women’s and two girls’ teams. The first team relegated from the Bundesliga in 2010, but managed the direct return in the following season. After 1998 and 2001 it was the third promotion to the highest German division. Home venue for the first women’s team is the Dreisamstadion, training location that Schönbergstadion of SV Blau-Weiß Wiehre Freiburg, which is also home to the second women’s team, which is the U-17 and U-15 juniors.

The best -known former player of SC Freiburg is the former international Melanie Behringer, who ran for the club between 2003 and 2008 and became the world champion and 2016 Olympic champion. SC Freiburg with Hasret Kayikçi, Luisa Wensing and Janina Minge currently has three German internationals in the squad and Svenja Fölmli and Riola Xhemaili two Swiss, with Lisa Kolb and Annabel Schasching two Austrian and with Jana Vojteková a Slovak national player.

The greatest success of the women’s football department was the entry into the final of the 2018/19 DFB Cup, which was lost just 0-1 against VfL Wolfsburg.

Dreisamstadion [ Edit | Edit the source text ]

From 1954 to 2021, the home stadium of the SC was the Dreisam Stadium with 24,000 seats, including 14,000 seats. Only in the first second division season did the Freiburgers evade into the Möslestadion of Freiburg FC. The home stadium of the sports club is located in the eastern Freiburg district of Waldsee on Schwarzwaldstrasse.

In the first years after the foundation, the association did not have its own sports field. In 1907, the predecessor FV 04’s application was rejected by the city council. When the gymnastics sports club joined, he played on the western part of the measuring. In 1926 the association played on the site of PSV Freiburg, the parade ground. ^[23]

The first own venue of the SC was the Winterer Stadium inaugurated in 1928, which was built together with the police sports club on the grounds of today’s Freiburg airfield. In 1936 the SC had to leave the stadium, in 1937 it was demolished because the site was needed as an airfield for the Air Force. Until 1954, the association again used the gymnastics facility on the measurement. In September 1955, a new space was inaugurated on the Dreisam, where the club borrowed its encounters by October 2021. ^[23]

Europa Park Stadium [ Edit | Edit the source text ]

Since the Dreisam Stadium hardly meets the requirements for a modern stadium, a conversion of the stadium or a new building has been discussed for some time. In December 2012, the Freiburg local council voted for the construction of a new stadium. ^[24] On February 1, 2015, the citizens of Freiburg voted in a citizens’ decision with 58.2 percent for the new stadium building in the Wolfswinkel in the Brühl district next to the airfield and the fair. ^[25] In November 2018, the construction work of the new stadium, which holds 34,700 places and originally in 2020-at the beginning of the 2020/21 season-was to become the new home of SC Freiburg, which was delayed due to the Covid 19 pandemic. The costs should be 76 million euros. ^[26] Even in February 2021 it was not yet clear when the SC could move in, because work on the stadium technology had not yet been completed.

Fan friendships and rivalries [ Edit | Edit the source text ]

In the 1990s there was a fan friendship between SC and BVB fans, which was no longer maintained. ^[48] On the 34th matchday of the 2011/12 season, she was refreshed when Freiburger and Dortmund celebrated the Dortmund championship and the Freiburg class. ^[49]

Fans of FC St. Pauli also maintain a friendship with SC supporters. ^[50] There is also a friendship between the fan clubs Aachen Ultras (Alemannia Aachen) and Wild boys Freiburg .

A rivalry had long existed between the followers of the Freiburg Freiburger Freiburger Freiburger Freiburger Freiburger Freiburg Freiburger Freiburg Freiburg in earlier times. The FFC was the club of the conservative upscale layers of the university city, while the SC stood for the old working class and later for the left alternative student. With the descent of the FFC from the 2nd division and the constant rise of SC Freiburg to the Bundesliga, this rivalry lost importance.

Encounters between the Karlsruher SC and SC Freiburg are often referred to as “Baden derby”. However, the almost alternating ascents and descents of both clubs have ensured that since the last meeting in the Bundesliga on May 31, 1997, only eight games have taken place in the 2nd Bundesliga (last March 21, 2016 in Freiburg, the game ended 1-0). So often there were positive feelings of reunion, a real rivalry never formed. In this context, “Baden connectedness” was also spoken.

However, the greatest rivalry by far exists to the supporters of VfB Stuttgart. This situation can be explained in the context of the general “rivalry” between Badeners and Württembergers. ^[51] In addition, SC Freiburg occupies the KSC place in the Baden-Württemberg derby for many after it relegated in the 1997/98 season and was hardly present in the Bundesliga. Many supporters see these games as the decisive derbies of the season.

Club songs [ Edit | Edit the source text ]

Before the home games of the SC, fans traditionally sing the Badnerlied, as is also common with other Baden football clubs.

On October 6, 2021, Freiburger Verkehrs AG for the Sportclub Freiburg published the new song video for the fan song that has existed since 2008 SC Freiburg!

• Blister – What also happens (Winner of the SC fan song competition 2006)
• Fisherman’s Fall – SC Freiburg! (2008, current fan song, is sung before every home game)

The sports club’s first club song dates from the 1920s. The text was written by Karl Ketterer, a SC player and official for public relations. melody We are united for a good hour from 1815. ^[52]
