[edit] History
TSV was established in November 1882 as the gymnastics club Männerturnverein 1882 Landsberg and adopted its current name around 1918. The club's footballers went their own way in 1923 as Fußball-Club 1911 Landsberg. In 1934, FC was re-united with TSV and joined by the army club Militär-Sportverein Landsberg to create TuSpV Landsberg. After World War II occupying Alied authorities dissolved all organizations in the country, including sports and football clubs. FC and TSV were both later re-formed sometime in 1945. FC adopted the name Sportverein 1911 Landsberg in 1947 and on 31 March 1949 the club was again re-united with founding association TSV.
Throughout its existence the football team has played in lower tier local competition with the exception of a single season spent in the Oberliga Bayern (IV) in 1997-98 where the team finished at the bottom of the table. They currently play in the Bezirksoberliga Schwaben (VI) after slipping from the Landesliga Bayern-Süd (V) all the way to the Bezirksliga Schwaben-Süd (VII), gaining promotion from this league in 2006-07.
In the 2007-08 season, the TSV finished at a secure eight place in the Bezirksoberliga.
Today's sports club has departments for Aikido, baseball, dance, gymnastics, handball, hiking, Karate, table tennis, and volleyball.
Geographically, the club is placed in Oberbayern but due to being very close to Schwaben, it plays in the Schwaben football league system.
[edit] Local competition
In the town of Landsberg, like many other small southern Bavarian towns, football has never been the dominant sport. The local ice hockey club, EV Landsberg 2000, currently playing in the 2nd Bundesliga (II), is much more popular and successful. Against this, the TSV has a hard stand in attracting support and sponsorships.
[edit] Honours
- Landesliga Bayern-Süd (V) runner-up: 1997 (promoted)
- Bezirksliga Schwaben-Süd (VII) champions: 1971, 1986, 2007
