SV Viktoria 01 Aschaffenburg is a German football club based in Aschaffenburg, Bavaria. Even though Aschaffenburg is located in Bavaria, Viktoria Aschaffenburg historically played its football in the Hessenliga (V) and the associated Hessian leagues, rather than the Bayernliga (V), against clubs from closer, neighbouring cities. This also reflects in part the history of the region, not traditionally part of Bavaria. The nearby Bavarian club ''FC Bayern Alzenau'' has also played in the Hessenliga for the same reasons. After 67 seasons in Hesse, from 1945 onwards, the members of the club voted with an 80% majority to return to Bavaria from the 2012–13 season onwards.〔(Viktoria Aschaffenburg kehrt heim ) www.fupa.net, published: 21 November 2011, accessed: 29 November 2011〕〔(Aschaffenburg gehört nun zu Bayern ) ''kicker sportmagazin'', published: 16 November 2011, accessed: 29 November 2011〕〔(Hessen oder Bayern? Die Viktoria hat sich entschieden ) ''Main Echo'', published: 15 November 2011, accessed: 29 November 2011〕 ==History== The club was formed on 24 June 1904 out of the merger of ''FC Aschaffenburg'' (6 August 1901) and ''FC Viktoria Aschaffenburg'' (12 April 1902). Renamed ''Sportverein Viktoria 01 Aschaffenburg'' on 3 June 1906 the united side played in the ''Kreisliga Odenwald'', ''Kreisliga Nordmain'', ''Kreisliga Südmain'' and ''Bezirksliga Main-Hessen'' (Gruppe Main) for a couple of seasons in the 1920s, changing leagues frequently. In 1937 they briefly merged with ''Reichsbahn TuSpo Aschaffenburg'' to play as ''Reichsbahn-Viktoria Aschaffenburg'', but were an independent side again by 1939. They made a late, short-lived appearance in top flight football in 1942, playing a single season in the Gauliga Bayern (Nord), one of sixteen premier divisions established in the 1933 re-organization of German football under the Third Reich. ''Aschaffenburg'' returned to the top flight after World War II playing in the Oberliga Süd for two seasons in the late 40s and then through most of the 50s, competing against sides that would later go on to play in the Bundesliga, Germany's first top tier professional league, such as ''Bayern Munich'', ''1. FC Nuremberg'', and ''VfB Stuttgart'', in front of crowds of 16,000 to 19,000. Generally a lower table side whose best result was a fifth-place finish in 1956, a series of poor performances saw ''Aschaffenburg'' drop to tier III play in the Amateurliga Hessen/Amateur Oberliga-Hessen well before the formation of the Bundesliga in 1963. The team's best performances came in the 1980s when they twice won the Oberliga Hessen title and promotion to 2.Bundesliga, where they played the 1985–86, 1986–87 and 1988–89 seasons. Through this period and into the early 90s ''Aschaffenburg'' made a half dozen appearances in the early rounds of DFB-Pokal (German Cup) play. The club's best cup performance came in 1988 when they eliminated then-Bundesliga side ''1. FC Köln'' (1:0) in the second round before eventually going out in the quarterfinals against ''Werder Bremen'' (1:3). A poor finish led to a move down to the fourth division play in the 1993–94 season. In 1995, the clubs under 19 side ended a remarkable series in German football. After 20 consecetive titles in the Under 19 Bayernliga (northern group) by the 1. FC Nuremberg, ''Viktoria'' finished this series, becoming only the second club to win this league. ''Viktorias'' junior teams play in the Bavarian league system, unlike its senior team. The side was relegated to Landesliga Hessen-Süd (V) for a single season in 2003–04 and have since returned to play in Oberliga-Hessen (IV). A third-place finish in the ''Oberliga'' in 2007–08 meant the club became one of the four clubs from this league to gain entry in the Regionalliga Süd for the next season. After finishing 13th in the league in 2008–09, outside the relegation ranks, the club decided to return to the now-named Hessenliga due to financial reasons. ''Viktoria'' experienced a further drop at the end of the 2009-10 season when it was relegated to the tier-six Verbandsliga Hessen-Süd despite an eighth-place finish for financial reasons.〔(Hessenliga 2009-10 ) kicker.de, accessed: 8 March 2011〕 In this league, Viktoria came second in 2010-11 and qualified for the promotion round to the Hessenliga, where it succeeded. In November 2011, the members of the club voted for a return to the Bavarian league system after the club had played in Hesse since 1945. Alongside the senior team, the reserve side will also switch associations while the club's youth teams already play in Bavaria. The reasons for the switch were the easier qualification modus for the revamped Regionalligas for 2012, in Hesse the club needed to win the league while for Bavaria a ninth-place finish was adequate for promotion. Another reason was also the lesser requirements in regards to infrastructure for the new Regionalliga Bayern, an important factor for the recovering club who had just escaped insolvency in the previous year.〔〔〔 A fourth-place finish in the Hessenliga in 2011-12 allowed the team to qualify for the new Regionalliga.〔(Das war die Relegation 2012 auf Verbandsebene ) fupa.net, published: 7 June 2012, accessed 8 June 2012〕 After a 15th place in the inaugural Regionalliga Bayern season Viktoria came second-last in the league in 2013–14 and was relegated from the league,now to the Bayernliga Nord, the northern division of the Bayernliga.〔(Regionalliga Bayern table 2013–14 ) ''kicker.de'', accessed: 16 June 2014〕 The club won its division in 2014–15 and made an immediate return to the Regionalliga.〔(Aschaffenburg und Rain zurück in der Regionalliga ) ''kicker.de'', published: 18 May 2015, accessed: 19 May 2015〕 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「Viktoria Aschaffenburg」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
