SV Rödinghausen is aGermanassociation football club based in the town ofRödinghausen,North Rhine-Westphalia.
The club's greatest success has been to earn promotion to thetier fourRegionalliga West in 2014.
For most of its history the club has been an amateur side in local football. The club's fortunes changed in 2009 when, after having been playing in the tier nineKreisliga A for a number of seasons the club began aseries of five consecutive promotions. A Kreisliga championship in 2010 was followed by aBezirksliga championship in 2011 and aLandesliga championship in 2012.[1] The club's rapid rise was made possible by the financial support of Horst Finkemeier, the retired owner of a kitchen manufacturing business. Finkemeier also financed the club's new stadium, which is estimated to have cost €2 million and was officially opened in 2011.[2] The stadium was first used, then still under construction, in a league match againstSC Verl but has also seen the club play friendlies againstValencia,Werder Bremen andAston Villa.[3]
In 2013SV won Group 1 of theWestfalenliga and thereby earned direct promotion to theOberliga Westfalen. The following season the club won promotion to the tier fourRegionalliga West for the first time after finishing runners-up in the Oberliga, behind the championsArminia Bielefeld II, who were ineligible for promotion.[4]
