TSV Eching is a German association football club from the municipality of Eching, located north of Munich, Bavaria. Established in 1947 as a football team,^[1] TSV today includes a winter sports department.

History

The football team spent their first three decades in Kreisliga and Bezirksliga play before winning promotion to the Landesliga Bayern-Süd (V) in 1981. Two seasons later the team again advanced, this time to the Oberliga Bayern (IV) for just a single season. TSV made another single season Oberliga appearance in 1985 before returning once again and this time staying up until 1993.

After being relegated, the club remained part of the Landesliga Bayern-Süd for the next 12 seasons before slipping to the Bezirksoberliga Oberbayern (VI) in 2005 and the Bezirksliga Oberbayern-Nord (VII) in 2007. They rebounded in the following seasons to make a return to the Landesliga (VI) in 2009–10, but finished 17th. In 2011, the team played in the Landesliga Bayern-Süd, after taking out a championship in the Bezirksoberliga Oberbayern (VII) in 2010–11. At the end of the 2011–12 season the club qualified for the promotion round to the newly expanded Bayernliga. A first round loss to SV Pullach however meant the club would remain in the Landesliga instead.^[2]
