History
editThe club was founded in 1999 by Turks living in Hamburg[3] and was promoted to the district league just five years later . There they made it into the national league as runner-up . After a tenth place in the promotion season, the Wilhelmsburg team had to go back down to the district league in 2008. This was followed by direct promotion back to the state league, where the team came fourth in 2010 and 2012. Finally, the team became champions in 2015 and was promoted to the top league.[4] In the 2017/18 season, the Wilhelmsburgers were relegated back to the state league as third-to-last.[5] They were promoted again in 2022 as champions of the Landesliga 2 season. In the 2022/23 season, the class was maintained with 12th place in the table.[6]
