Zipsendorfer Fußballclub Meuselwitz is a German football club from Meuselwitz, Thuringia.

History

The origins of the club go back to the establishment of "Aktivist Zipsendorf" in 1919. After World War II the club played as "BSG Aktivist Zipsendorf" and enjoyed some early minor success with three consecutive titles (1954-56) in the Kreisliga Altenburg and a 1962 win in local cup play. However, the club remained mired in the lower echelons of East German competition. When the community of Zipsendorf was merged into nearby Meuselwitz in 1976 the team was re-christened "BSG Aktivist Meuselwitz". In 1991, after German re-unification the year before, the club briefly joined "SV Bergbau" as that association's football department before going their own way, first as "FV Zipsendorf" and then, in 1994, as "Zipsendorfer Fußballclub Meuselwitz".

Mid-way through the decade the club began an ascent out of the lower divisions of German football. Between 1993 and 1997 they worked their way up through four different divisions on the strength of four consecutive titles before settling into the Landesliga Thuringia (V) for seven seasons.

Under coach Damian Halata the club reached the semi-finals of the 2003 Thüringerpokal (Thüringer Cup) and the following season captured the Landesliga title to advance to the Oberliga Nordost-Süd (IV) where they have so far delivered upper table finishes.

The association has grown to include departments for bowling and cheerleading.

The club plays its home matches in the bluechip-Arena (capacity 5,000) named under a sponsorship agreement with a local computer firm. The facility was constructed as the Stadion Glaserkuppe in 1953 and refurbished over a two year period ending in 2004.
