1. FC Eschborn
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
1. FC Eschborn is a German football club founded in 1930 which plays in Eschborn, a suburb of Frankfurt, Hesse.
A perennial lower division amateur side, the club has recently made strides that have seen it playing in the Regionalliga Süd (III) as recently as the 2005-06 season. Their success has been mixed, however: while making some strong showings in the fourth division Oberliga Hessen, they have not been able to compete effectively at the Regionalliga level. The club is also suffering financially, and unable to find a strong sponsor, is facing bankruptcy.
Eschborn took part in the 2005-06 German Cup tournament on the strength of their championship in the Oberliga Hessen (IV) the previous season, but were eliminated in the opening round by 1. FC Nürnberg.
The club is currently playing in the Oberliga Hessen (IV).
