SC Hauenstein is a German association football club from the municipality of Hauenstein, Rhineland-Palatinate.
History
Sport-Club Hauenstein was established on 24 March 1919 at the "Gasthaus Zum Schwaninn". The club merged with DJK Hauenstein on 7 November 1930, but as a faith-based club, was banned in 1935 as politically undesirable under the Nazi regime.
A new association was formed in partnership with Turnverein Hauenstein following World War II on 26 June 1946 as Sport-Gemeinshaft Hauenstein. This was lost on 10 March 1950 and the membership of the defunct club immediately re-formed themselves on 17 March 1950 with SC and TV re-emerging as separate sides.[1]
SC joined the third tier 2. Amateurliga Westpfalz and in 1960 won its way to the 1. Amateurliga Südwest (II).[2] Following the establishment of the first division Bundesliga in 1963, lower division football in the country was reorganized. The Amateurliga Südwest became a third tier circuit (Verbandsliga) where Hauenstein competed until 1970, earning indifferent results until finally being sent down. The team remained in lower division play through the 70s and 80s and made a single season appearance in the Amateur Oberliga Südwest (III) in 1990–91. They returned to the AOL Südwest, which was now a fourth tier circuit, in 1993, and then became part of the Regionalliga West/Südwest (III) in a subsequent league restructuring. Hauenstein was relegated in 1997 to play in the Oberliga Südwest (IV). Generally a mid-table side, SC earned a second-place result in 2003 and finished third in 2005. In the 2012 the league was renamed Oberliga Rheinland-Pfalz/Saar with SCH continuing to achieve good results, culminating in a runners-up finish in 2015 and participation in the promotion round to the Regionalliga Südwest. After a draw and a loss the club missed out on promotion with Bahlinger SC promoted instead.[3] In the following season the club once more failed in the Regionalliga promotion round after another runners-up finish in the Oberliga.
