History

SV Kickers Pforzheim TSV Schwarzenberg SG UnterreichenbachSchwarzenberg Jugend

The club was formed in 2011 in a merger of Germania Brötzingen and 1. FC Eutingen. Of the two clubs Germania Brötzingen had been the more successful, playing as high as the Gauliga Baden in the 1930s. Eutingen's greatest achievements were two seasons in the Amateurliga Nordbaden and a Baden Cup win in 1950. The merger came only a season after two other well known Pforzheim clubs, 1. FC Pforzheim and VfR Pforzheim merged to form 1. CfR Pforzheim.

The new club inherited the league place of Germania Brötzingen in the tier seven Landesliga Mittelbaden. After a seventh place in 2012 the club won this league and promotion the following season. In its first year in the Verbandsliga Baden Kickers won the league and earned promotion to the Oberliga. The club came last in the Oberliga in 2014–15 and was relegated back to the Verbandsliga, followed by a last place in this league in 2015–16. Instead of relegation, Kickers' first team resigned from competitive football. Amid financial constraints leading to the departure of many players, the club will be inactive in 2016–17 to form youth teams. The first team may join the C-Klasse no earlier than the 2017–18 season.
