The FC Singen 04 is a German association football club from the city of Singen, Baden-Württemberg. Established 4 August 1904.〔(FC Singen 04 website – History ) , accessed: 21 March 2009〕 the club merged with ''Fußball-Club Radolfzell'' in 1908 to form ''FC Radolfzell-SIngen''. That union was ended on 10 March 1910 and in 1917 ''04'' was joined by ''Sportclub Singen''. 〔Grüne, Hardy (2001). Vereinslexikon. Kassel: AGON Sportverlag ISBN 3-89784-147-9〕 ==History== ''FCS 04'' won its first title in 1923, taking the championship in the ''Bezirksliga Ost'', and in 1930 it won the ''Schwarzwaldliga'', but could not find its way to the highest level of play in the Bezirksliga Württemberg-Baden. In 1933 German football was reorganized under the Third Reich into 16 top flight Gauligen and in 1939 ''FSC'' attempted to qualify for the Gauliga Baden but were beaten by ''VfR Achern'' (2:3, 5:3). The team also took part for the first time in national cup play in the Tschammerpokal tournament predecessor to today's DFB-Pokal (German Cup). From 1942–45, during World War II, the club played as part of the combined wartime side ''Kreigspielgemeinschaft Singen/Gottmadingen'' alongside ''SpVgg Gottmadingen'' and ''Reichsbahn SV Singen''. Following the war occupying Allied authorities ordered the dissolution of most organizations in Germany, including sports and football clubs. New clubs soon emerged and ''FCS'' was reorganized as ''Sportverein Singen''. In May 1946, the former memberships of several other Singen clubs, including ''Stadtturnverein Singen'', ''Freie Turnerschaft Singen'', and ''Roter Sport Singen'', joined ''SV'' to play as ''Sportgemeinde Eintracht Singen''. Both ''TSS'' and ''RSS'' were former worker's clubs that were banned by the regime in 1933 as politically undesirable. ''Eintracht'' became part of the Oberliga Südbaden-Ost (I) for the 1945–46 season and the following year played in the Landesliga Südbaden-Ost. These circuits were not part of general German domestic competition, but were instead administered as part of a separate competition organized within the French zone of occupation. In 1947, the team returned to top flight competition in the French-controlled Oberliga Südwest-Süd and in 1948 captured the South Baden Cup. The following year the team reassumed its traditional identity as ''FCS 04''. The team played well and after a third-place result in 1950, ''FCS'' took part in qualification play for the Oberliga Süd (I) as teams from Südbaden returned to German competition: they beat ''Freiburger FC'' 3:0 and advanced alongside ''SSV Reutlingen'' to first division play. However, both clubs fared poorly there and were immediately relegated to the 2. Liga-Süd where ''FCS'' spent 10 of the next 11 seasons. They spent the 1958–59 season in the Amateurliga Südbaden (III) and captured the German amateur football championship that year, defeating ''Arminia Hannover'' 3:2. Following the introduction of the new first division Bundesliga in 1963, ''FCS'' became part of the Amateurliga Schwarzwald-Bodensee (III). They finished the 1963–64 campaign in second place and lost a Regionalliga (II) promotion playoff to ''FV Ebingen''. The team remained competitive through most of the 1960s and on into the 1970s. In 1971 and 1972, they again took part in qualifying play for the Regionalliga Süd (II), but failed in both attempts losing to ''SV Waldhof'' 3:5 and 0:1. ''FCS'' played four more seasons in the Amateurliga Schwarzwald-Bodensee (III) and Amateurliga Südbaden (III) before being sent down after a 17th-place finish in 1976. The club resurfaced in the Oberliga Baden-Württemberg in 1997 for a three season stint before again slipping into lower tier competition. Since 1960, the clubs from the Black Forest-Lake Constance area were playing in their own league, the Amateurliga Schwarzwald-Bodensee and FC Singen 04 became part of this league. It managed to win it in 1971 and 1972 but failed both times in its aim to return to the second division. In 1971, it came third in the promotion round when only the winner moved up. In 1972, second on equal points with Waldhof Mannheim, it lost a decider 0–1.〔''Die Deutsche Liga Chronik'' publisher: DSFS, published: 2006, page: I 55, accessed: 21 March 2009〕 In 1974, with the reorganisation of German football, Singen, alongside two other clubs, was moved to the Amateurliga Südbaden. It only lasted for two seasons there and was relegated to the tier-four 2nd Amateurliga Südbaden-South in 1976. In 1978, when the Oberliga Baden-Württemberg was formed as the new tier-three league for the whole state, Singen returned to the South Baden league on the strength of a 2nd Amateurliga championship, which was now renamed Verbandsliga Südbaden and was only the fourth tier of the league system. The club belonged to the Verbandsliga until 1981, when it was relegated once more. What followed was a long spell in the lower amateur leagues until 1994, when it made a return to the Verbandsliga. A second place in this league in 1997 meant promotion to the Oberliga and for three seasons, the club belonged to this league, a ninth place in its first season being the highlight. In the 1999–2000 edition of the German Cup, Singen managed to beat 2nd Bundesliga side Rot-Weiß Oberhausen 3–2 in the first round before going out 1–3 to SpVgg Greuther Fürth in the second round.〔(DFB-Pokal 1999/2000 » 1. Runde ) Weltfussball.de, accessed: 21 March 2009〕 From there, ''FCS 04'' descended again and, after relegation from the Oberliga, went straight through to the Landesliga (VI) in 2001. Briefly returning to the Verbandsliga in 2002–03, the club since has been playing at Landesliga level. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「FC Singen 04」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
