FSV Mainz 05 Stats & History
In 1905 1. Mainzer Fußballverein Hassia 05 was created. Mainz merged with other clubs on a couple of occasions, settling for the 1. Mainzer Fußball- und Sportverein 05 moniker in 1919. In 1921 they won the Kreisliga Hessen and qualified for the first round of the German national championship.
Mainz played in the Bezirksliga Main-Hessen in the early 30s and won the league in 1932 and 1933. After WWII, they joined the Oberliga Sudwest which was the regional top-tier league at the time. It played in the league until the creation of the Bundesliga in 1963.
Then, they played in the second division for most of the rest of the 20th century. However, Mainz 05 dropped down to the third tier in the late 70s due to financial issues. While not a major trophy, the 1982 German amateur championship does stand out in the Mainz 05 team stats.
