TSG Hoffenheim Stats & History

Originally a gymnastics club, TSG Hoffenheim was formed by a merger of Turnverein Hoffenheim and Fußballverein Hoffenheim in 1945. The club languished in the lower leagues for the remainder of the 20th century. At the start of the 90s, Hoffenheim were in the eighth-tier amateur league.

By 1996, Hoffenheim were steadily climbing up the German soccer ladder and managed to reach the fifth tier. In 2000 Dietmar Hopp bought a large stake in his boyhood club, accelerating Hoffenheim’s progress. In 2000 they finished first place in the fifth tier and immediately earned promotion to the third tier in 2001.

The first DFB-Pokal appearance in the Hoffenheim team stats was in 2003-04. They reached the quarterfinals and eliminated Bundesliga club Bayer Leverkusen along the way. In 2007, they earned their first-ever promotion to the 2. Bundesliga with a second-place finish in the Regionalliga Sud.

So, 62 years after playing their first match Hoffenheim finally joined the professional ranks. They started the 2007-08 season slowly but went on a run. Climbing up to the second place, Hoffenheim earned promotion to the Bundesliga on their first attempt.
