History

Formed in 1912 the club played as a non-descript side in local football for the most part of the first forty years of its existence. It began a rise through the league system when it won promotion to the tier three Landesliga Westfalen in 1949. TSV played at this level until 1954, generally achieving good results which culminated in promotion to the 2. Oberliga West. It also qualified for the German amateur football championship where the club defeated SpVgg Neu-Isenburg 6–1 in the 1954 final.

TSV Marl-Hüls played in the second tier 2. Oberliga for the next six seasons until 1960 and, after a difficult first season, established itself as a strong side. In 1959–60 the club finished runners-up and earned promotion to the tier one Oberliga West. In the Oberliga TSV struggled, finishing twelfth, fourteenth and sixteenth in its three seasons there. In 1962–63 it was the only Oberliga West club not to apply for a place in the new Bundesliga when it was introduced.

TSV Marl-Hüls became part of the Regionalliga West from 1963, the new second tier below the Bundesliga. It finished fourth in its first season there, the best result in the club's seven seasons there until 1970. After relegation at the end of the 1969–70 season TSV played in the north east division of the tier three Verbandsliga Westfalen. A runners-up finish there in 1972 qualified the team for the German amateur championship for a second time. TSV made another appearance in the final of the competition but this time was beaten 2–1 by FSV Frankfurt.

From 1974 onwards the club's fortunes declined with the team being relegated from the Verbandsliga in 1976. TSV returned to the Verbandsliga in 1978 after the league had dropped to the fourth tier through the introduction of the Oberliga Westfalen above it. The team moved between the north east and south west divisions of the Verbandsliga until 1987, when it was relegated again.

After a lengthy stay in the lower leagues of Westphalia, predominantly in the Bezirksliga, TSV Marl-Hüls made a recovery from 2010 onwards. It won its Bezirksliga division in 2011 and moved up to the Westfalenliga the season after. After three seasons there a league championship in 2014–15 took the team up to the tier five Oberliga Westfalen for the first time.
