SC Weismain


Founded 1922 in the Gastätte Gäbelein as FC Weismain. After WW-II, it was renamed as SC Weismain. Generally speaking, they've been pretty decent at the amateur level.

The 1998-99 season was difficult, as the lower rungs of the Regionalliga Sud were extremely competitive. Despite some excellent results down the stretch, they weren't able to save themselves. Relegation continued in the Oberliga and Weismain was back in the 6th division. To give an idea of the current strength of the club, in 2003, they hosted Coventry City in a friendly, losing 10-1.

The club appears to have disappeared into bankruptcy in 2004. I believe that the new club is called SCW Obermain.
