History
Sportclub Wiedenbrück was created through the merger of DJK Wiedenbrück and Westfalia Wiedenbrück in 2000. Following the union the football side took up DJK's place in the sixth tier Berzirksliga, and quickly moved up to the Verbandsliga Westfalen (V). The club slipped to play in the Landesliga in 2005, but recovered the next season, returning to the Verbandsliga where they finished as vice-champions in 2007. That finish earned SC promotion to the fourth division Oberliga Westfalen alongside champions SV Schermbeck. The Wiedenbrück side suffered through a poor season in 2007–08 and were relegated after a 17th place result. After one season in the Verbandsliga, SC Wiedenbrück were runners-up in the NRW-Liga. In the NRW-Liga the team won the championship and earned promotion to the tier four Regionalliga West where they play today as a lower table side.
