History
editThe FC Denzlingen was formed on 7 January 1928.[1] From 1947, when it returned to competitive football after the war, to 1951, the club was known as SV Denzlingen.[2]
The club did not make an impact on the football scene in South Baden until 1988, when it earned promotion to the tier-five Landesliga (English: State League) through a championship in the Bezirksliga Freiburg.[1] FCD managed another promotion within two season, now to the Verbandsliga Südbaden, where it lasted for only one season.
In 1993, it made a more permanent return to the Verbandsliga. In 1998, it took out the South Baden Cup, which qualified the club for the first round of the national cup competition. There, on 29 August 1998 it met Hamburger SV and earned a respectable 3–0 defeat against the Fußball-Bundesliga team.[1][3] The season proved to get even more successful when the club took out the league title and earned promotion to the Oberliga Baden-Württemberg for the first time.
At this level, the team struggled for three seasons, a twelfth place its best result, before being relegated again. FCD did not settle well back in the Verbandsliga and was relegated once more in 2004.
Its stint in the Landesliga was however only a short one, returning to the Verbandsliga immediately on the strength of a league championship. The club also reached the South Baden Cup final once more in 2005, but lost.
In 2008–09, the team had another successful season, winning promotion back to the Oberliga for a second stint, but lasted for only one season before going down again. After finishing second-last in the Verbandsliga in 2014–15 the club was relegated to the Landesliga but bounced back immediately through a league championship there.
