The club became a founding member of the Bezirksoberliga Oberfranken in 1988 and the leagues first champion. It played in the Landesliga Bayern-Nord for a season in 198–90 but was relegated again back to the Bezirksoberliga. The club quickly declined, dropping out of the Bezirksoberliga in 1992 and the Bezirksliga below in 1994. A period in the lower amateur leagues followed that only ended in the early 2000s. TSV once more advanced to the Bezirksoberliga and finished as high as third there but dropped back to the Bezirksliga again in 2009. After four seasons in the Bezirksliga the club came close to relegation to the Kreisliga in 2014 but ultimately survived. The following season the club had to enter the relegation play-off and lost, so it dropped down to the Kreisliga.Manfreds Fussball Archiv Website with tables and results from the Bavarian Oberliga to Bezirksliga, accessed: 17 May 2012
