Women's football

edit

The women's section was founded in July 1980. Two years later, they participated in league play. After two more years, they reached the Verbandsliga Südbaden, the then highest league. In 1992 the team won the Verbandsliga Championship and played a promotion playoff for the then active Bundesliga. The team lost however. In 1996 the team won the Verbandsliga again and won the promotion playoff. The team achieved a sixth-place finish in its southern Bundesliga division. As the Bundesliga merged both divisions, the team had to play a qualification-round in which the team got second out of four, thus failing to qualify for the next Bundesliga season. In 2004 the 2nd Bundesliga was founded and SC Sand has been playing there from the start achieving only midfield places.
