Blumenthaler SV is a German association football club from Blumenthal, the northernmost district of the city of Bremen. The club was established 6 June 1919 as Blumenthaler Sportverein by former members of Blumenthaler Fußballverein 1912. FV was the successor to Spiel- und Sport Blumenthal and is part of the historical tradition of SG Aumund-Vegesack, which is still active today. As a worker's club, SV was part of the Arbeiter-Turn- und Sportbund (ATSB) in the 1920s and early 1930s.

Formation to WWII
The ATSB was one of several leagues separate from mainstream competition active in Germany in the interwar period, each of which staged its own national championship. In 1932, the club captured the regional Nordwestdeutschland crown and then advanced as far as the semifinals where they were put out by eventual champions TuS Nürenberg-Ost (4:1). The following year, BSV was banned as politically unpalatable by the Nazi regime, alongside other left-leaning workers' and faith-based clubs.
The club was soon reformed as Allgemeiner Sport-Verein Blumenthal von 1919 and, in 1937, qualified to play in the Gauliga Niedersachsen, one of 13 regional first division circuits established in the 1933 reorganization of German football. They remained part of Gauliga competition throughout the course of World War II, but earned only mid-to-lower table results until finishing as vice-champions in the war weakened Gauliga Weser-Ems in 1944. The following season was cut short after just 4 games by the collapse of Nazi Germany. ASV made two appearances in play for the Tschammer-Pokal, predecessor to the modern day DFB-Pokal (German Cup), going out against Polizei Hamburg in 1939, and against Dresdner SC in the second round in 1940, having beaten Hamburger SV in the first round.
Postwar to date
Following the war, the team took on its current name and became part of the Amateurliga Bremen (II) where they captured three consecutive divisional titles from 1950-52. However, BSV failed to advance in each of its subsequent attempts to qualify for the Oberliga Nord (I). The team continued to field strong sides through the 1950s and on into the late 1970s. In 1963, the Amateurliga became a third tier circuit with the formation of the new national first division Bundesliga and the two Regionalliga (II). Despite another 4 divisional titles and participation in qualification play for the Regionalliga Nord (II) the team was unable to advance. In 1977, BSV crashed out following a 16th place finish. They made single season cameo appearances in the Amateuroberliga Nord (III) in 1979-80 and the Oberliga Niedersachsen (III) in 1997-98.
The team returned to national cup play in the 1970s with first round appearances in 1974–75, 1975–76, 1977–78, 1978–79 and 1980–81. They also took part in the opening rounds of the national amateur championship in 1955, 1965, 1974, and 1976, without any success.
BSV nowadays plays in the tier five Bremen-Liga.
