FC Pipinsried

FC Pipinsried was formed in 1967 and, for most of its early history, the club was an amateur side in local Bavarian football.

In 1978 it climbed another level, now to the A-Klasse, where it immediately won another championship and earned another promotion, now to the Bezirksliga in 1979. It first rose above the leagues of Swabia in 1989 when it finished runners-up of the Bezirksoberliga Schwaben in the league's inaugural season. Pipinsried entered the Landesliga Bayern-Süd for four seasons from 1989 to 1993 but never finished higher than eleventh in that time and, at the end of it, was relegated back to the Bezirksoberliga. The club spent the next six seasons back in the Bezirksoberliga Schwaben, coming close to promotion again in 1996 and 1998, when the side came third. It won the league championship the following season, 1998–99, and moved up to the Landesliga once more.
