The DJK Waldberg is a German association football club from the village of Waldberg, near Sandberg, Bavaria.

The club's most notable achievement was qualifying for the first round of the German Cup, the DFB-Pokal, in 1997–98 where it lost 1–16 to FC Bayern Munich in front of 35,500. Waldberg's defeat is, as of 2012, still the highest of any club in the German Cup.[1]

History

Formed in 1953 the club played in the lower amateur leagues for the most part of its history.

DJK Waldberg won promotion to the Bezirksliga Unterfranken-Ost in 1987 but was unable to qualify for the new Bezirksoberliga Unterfranken in 1987–88, finishing twelfth. DJK quickly improved, coming fifth in the following year, followed by a league championship and promotion in 1989–90.[2]

In the Bezirksoberliga Unterfranken the club finished tenth in its first year followed by a twelfth place in 1991–92. The team's third season there however proved to be its best, coming second and earning promotion to the tier five Landesliga Bayern-Nord.[3]

For the next eight season the club played in the Landesliga, initially as a mid-table side. In 1997 the team finished fifth in the league, its best performance so far, but also managed to win the local cup competition, the Lower Franconian Cup, and to qualify for the first round of the German Cup.

The club drew FC Bayern Munich as its opposition for the first round and decided to play its home game in Nuremberg to be able to attract more spectators. In front of 35,500 DJK was soundly defeated, 1–16, which is still the record defeat in a German Cup match.[1][4] In the game, Carsten Jancker scored five goals against Waldberg, equalising an all-time scoring record he would improve to six goals in 2004 in 1. FC Kaiserslautern's 15–0 defeat of FC Schönberg 95.[5]

In the league the club continued to improve, finishing fourth in 1997–98 and second in 1998–99. This result allowed the club to take part in the promotion round to the Bayernliga where it was however unsuccessful and had to remain in the Landesliga. The following season Waldberg came only eleventh. The club decided during the 2000–01 season in the Landesliga to withdraw to the lower amateur leagues again and not to play out the season.[6]

The club rose to Bezirksliga level again by 2004, playing for a season in the Bezirksliga Unterfranken-Ost before this league became the Bezirksliga Unterfranken 2. It remained at this level until 2010 when it was relegated back to the Kreisliga.[7] Until 2014 the club played in the tier eight Kreisliga Rhön, finishing 16th in the 2013–14 season and being relegated to the Kreisklasse. A last-place finish in the Kreisklasse in 2015–16 took the club down another level, now to the A-Klasse.
