Their greatest success came in 1996, when playing as SC Weismain they won the Bayernliga (IV) and were promoted to the tier three Regionalliga Süd.

For most of its history, it was unremarkable amateur side, beginning its ascent in 1982, with promotion to the local A-Klasse (VI) circuit.

For the next ten seasons here the club finished almost exclusively in the upper half of the table with a third-place result in 1987–88 being an early highlight.

The season after this, against lesser competition, Weismain won its division and earned promotion to the Bayernliga (IV) with the strong financial support of Alois Dechant, owner of a local construction company.

The club's reserve team, SC Weismain II, also achieved local success, rising as high as the Landesliga.

They made a slow recovery, winning their division in 2007 and so moving up to the Kreisklasse (IX) where the team played for the next couple of seasons.
