Following the 1963 formation of the Bundesliga, Germany's first professional top flight league, the Amateurliga became a third division circuit.

The Baesweiler club finished in last place in 1964 and was absent from the Amateurliga for a season, but immediately bounced back.

They had a close brush with relegation in 1975 when they were beaten 3:4 by VfL Köln in a playoff, but the result was reversed on appeal.

In 1995, the club advanced to the Oberliga Nordrhein (IV), where they played for four seasons as a lower-tier team before declaring bankruptcy and withdrawing from competition in 1999.

Following the bankruptcy, a youth club named Jugendsportverein Baesweiler 09 was established and remains active today.
