Wikipedia - VfB Speldorf

VfB Speldorf is a German association football club from the city of Mülheim an der Ruhr, North Rhine-Westphalia.

History

The association was formed on 19 January 1919 as the successor to pre-World War I side Sport-Club Preußen Speldorf, which was itself the successor of Ballverein Rheinland Speldorf. Later the same year the club merged with Fußball Club Rheinland Speldorf to become Verein für Bewegungsspiele Speldorf.

The team played largely as a local side and in 1933 adopted the name VfB Mülheim-Speldorf. They captured consecutive titles in the Berziksklasse Niederrhein (II) in 1935 and 1936 and took part in promotion playoffs for the Gauliga Niederrhein, but were unsuccessful in their attempt to advance. Late in World War II, VfB played as part of the wartime club Kriegspielgemeinschaft Mülheim/Broich alongside Turn- und Spielverein Broich 1885 (1943–45), before resuming its separate identity after the conflict.

From the 40s on into the mid-50s Speldorf competed in the third tier Landesliga Niederrhein as an undistinguished side until breaking out in 1956 and capturing the division title. The team then went on to national amateur final where they were beaten 2:3 by SpVgg Neu-Isenburg. They fared poorly the next season after their advance to the 2. Liga-West (II) and were immediately relegated. They spent four more seasons in the Landesliga before slipping out of sight into local competition. VfB resurfaced in the Amateurliga Niederrhein (III) in 1969 for a three-season turn before again backsliding, followed by a single season cameo appearance in the Amateuroberliga Nordrhein (III) in 1983–84. Most recently Speldorf returned to the professional ranks in the Oberliga Nordrhein (IV) in 2005.

The club currently plays in the tier five Oberliga Niederrhein after promotion from the Landesliga Niederrhein in 2017.

VfB施佩爾多夫足球俱樂部,簡稱施佩爾多夫,是一家位於德國黑森州斯佩爾多夫的足球俱樂部。球隊成立於1892年,目前在威斯特法倫東北威斯特法倫聯賽作賽,是德國足球聯賽系統的第五級別。俱樂部主場是施佩爾多夫體育場,可容納3,000名觀眾。

施佩爾多夫在1920年代和1930年代取得了成功,曾兩次奪得威斯特法倫冠軍。在第二次世界大戰後,俱樂部經歷了一段低迷時期,直到1970年代才重新崛起。在1978-79賽季,施佩爾多夫首次升入德國足球乙級聯賽,但在一個賽季後就降級了。

1980年代,施佩爾多夫在德國足球丙級聯賽中效力,並在1985-86賽季獲得了亞軍。在1987-88賽季,俱樂部再次升入德國足球乙級聯賽,但在1989-90賽季降級。

1990年代,施佩爾多夫在德國足球丙級聯賽和威斯特法倫聯賽之間浮沉。在1999-00賽季,俱樂部降入威斯特法倫東北威斯特法倫聯賽,並在該級別聯賽中效力至今。

施佩爾多夫的著名球員包括克勞斯·費施爾、弗蘭克·海涅和馬克西米利安·阿諾德。俱樂部的主教練是克里斯托弗·哈格里夫斯。
