History

The earliest predecessor of today's association was the gymnastics club "MTV Germania Kleinschönbeck Schöneiche" founded in 1894. In the aftermath of World War II occupying Allied authorities disbanded organizations across the country, including sports and football associations. "Germania" was re-established as "SG Schöneiche" and as was common in East Germany through the 1950s underwent several name changes, playing as "BSG Lokomotive Schöneiche", "BSG Motor Friedrichshagen", "BSG Motor Ostend", "BSG Empor Köpenick", "TSG Schöneiche". Before German re-unification the club was known as "BSG ZBE Landbau Schöneiche". The footballers did not enjoy any real success, with their play being limited to district league competition.After reunification in 1990 the club was re-christened "SV Germania Schöneiche" and in the mid-90s the footballers began to show signs of improvement beginning with an advance out of the Berzirksliga Brandenburg (VII) into the Landesliga Brandenburg/Nord (VI) in 1997. Two years later they won promotion to the Verbandsliga Brandenburg (VI) where they would compete for the next seven years until capturing the division title in 2006 and moving up to the Oberliga Nordost/Nord (V).

"Schöneiche" captured the Brandenburg Pokal (Brandenburg Cup) in 2004 and subsequently took part in the opening round of the 2004-05 German Cup competition going out 1:2 to 2.Bundesliga club "1860 Munich".
