History

Established sometime in 1930 as "Sportverein Lohhof", the football team first came to notice in the early 1990s with an advance to the Amateuroberliga Bayern. [Grüne, Hardy (2001). Vereinslexikon. Kassel: AGON Sportverlag ISBN 3-89784-147-9] After four seasons in tier IV play, "SV" won its way to the Regionalliga Süd (III) after a second place finish and successful promotion playoff in 1994. They took part in group play for the national amateur championship, but were quickly eliminated. An unsuccessful Regionalliga campaign followed and the team was sent back down. In 1999, "Lohhof" took the Oberliga Bayern (IV) championship to return to third division play for the 1999-2000 season.

The club then suffered through disasterous string of reverses; the finished last in the Regionalliga in 1999-2000, 18th of 20 in the Oberliga Bayern in 2000-01, and last in the Landesliga Bayern-Süd (V) in 2001-02. Their slide continued downward through the Bezirksoberliga Oberbayern (VI) and then withdrawing to the Kreisklasse München-3 (IX) in 2003. They won the division title there in 2006 to advance to the Kreisliga Oberbayern, München-1 (VIII) where they finished 12th in 2007-08 [ [http://ergebnisse.bfv.de/ligaPublicArchivErgebnisse.do?reqCode=showDetails&liga_id=22749&reset=1 Bayerischer Fussball Verband - Kreisliga München-1 Schmid] accessed: 15 July 2008] and only through a 4-2 win in the final relegation match did the "SVL" archive to stay in the Kreisliga for another season.
