TheSV Raisting is aGermanassociation football club from the town ofRaisting,Bavaria.
The club's greatest success came in 2013, when it qualified for the southern division of theBayernliga, the fifth tier of theGerman football league system.
SV Raisting, for the most of its history, has been a non-descript amateur side in local Bavarian football. The club was formed in 1924 asSportabteilung Raisting as part of local club MTV Diessen. Playing only friendlies in the early year the club became independent in 1929 under its current name. Disbanded at the end of theSecond World War SV Raisting reformed on 8 July 1946, and entered local football once more in theZugspitze region. In the following decades the club fluctuated between the lowest division, the C-Klasse, and two levels higher, the A-Klasse. In 1959,SVR faced a crises that led to the club almost being disbanded but it recovered. It built a new home ground in 1969 with the earth works being carried out by theUS Army.[1]
The club won promotion to theBezirksliga Oberbayern-Süd in 1979 and again in 1991. In 1994, itwon a championship in the Bezirksliga and earned promotion to the Bezirksoberliga.[2]
Raisting played in theBezirksoberliga Oberbayern, the highest league inUpper Bavaria, for three seasons from 1994 onwards, finishing in the bottom half of the table each year and eventually being relegated again in 1997. After two years in the Bezirksliga the club returned to the Bezirksoberliga again in 1999.[2] The club's second three-season stint in this league was more successful, culminating in promotion to theLandesliga Bayern-Süd in 2002.[3]
The club's first ever Landesliga season was unsuccessful, finishing sixteenth and being relegated again. Four more Bezirksoberliga seasons followed before Raisting returned to the Landesliga for a second time in 2007.[3] On this occasion, Raisting lasted for two seasons before dropping down again in 2009. The club dropped straight from the Landesliga via the Bezirksoberliga to the Bezirksliga and rose back up again to the Bezirksoberliga by 2011.[2] The 2011–12 season was to be the last of the Bezirksoberliga and Raisting, despite only finishing eleventh qualified for the Landesliga, the later having been expanded from three to five divisions.[3][4]
The club came second in the inaugural season of theLandesliga Bayern-Südwest and, via the promotion round, earned promotion to theBayernliga.[5] Raisting came eleventh in its first season in the southern division of the Bayernliga in 2013–14.[6] The club finished on a relegation play-off rank in the 2014–15 season and, after losing toFV Illertissen II in the first round, was relegated back to the Landesliga.
