TSV Amicitia Viernheim

Due to the close proximity of Viernheim to Baden-Württemberg, the club plays in the league system of this state.

With the rise of the Nazis to power in 1933, the club was outlawed due to its association with the Catholic Deutschen Jugendkraft but it was reformed in 1946.

[4] The club played in the tier-four Verbandsliga Nordbaden for ten seasons from 1988 onwards, a fifth place in its first year being the best result.

After the end of the Second World War, Amicitia was briefly renamed Grün-Weiß Viernheim due to all pre-1945 sport associations being outlawed.

[5] The club became part of the tier-two Landesliga Nordbaden, where it achieved a second place in the northern division of the league in 1948, qualifying for the promotion round to the Oberliga Süd, where it came last.

The year after, a seventh place was not enough to qualify the team for the new tier-two 2nd Oberliga Süd and it became part of what was now the Amateurliga Nordbaden.

[7] In 1954 and 1955, the club was outclassed by the Bavarian contestants VfL Neustadt, SpVgg Weiden and FC Penzberg.

The club also qualified for the German amateur football championship, where it was knocked out in the semi-finals by Alemannia 90 Berlin.

Amicitia was outclassed at this level and finished last in the league, being relegated back to the tier-three Amateurliga again.

In 1980, a last place finish meant a further relegation for the club, now to the sixth tier of the league system.

The next ten seasons, Amicitia spent at the lower amateur level before making a Verbandsliga comeback in 2007.

The new club was not a huge success in the Verbandsliga, existing as a mid-table side until 2012 when it was relegated to the Landesliga after coming 13th.
