블루멘탈러 SV 1919

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 Nürnberg-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 four 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 the 1980s

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 to 1952. 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 four 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.

Since 2005

In 2006 the first team won the 18th LOTTO Masters for the Haake Beck Cup (today: LOTTO Masters for the Sparkasse Bremen Cup) in today's Bremen ÖVB Arena against Werder Bremen's U23. In 2015, today's LOTTO Masters was won again. This time the rival Bremer SV was beaten in the final. In 2014, 2016, 2018 and 2020 the entry into the DFB Cup was missed after the Blumenthalers lost the finals for the "Lotto Pokal". In the first two finals, Bremer SV won 1–0 and 3–0 respectively, while in 2018 BSC Hastedt got the upper hand 3–0. In 2020, the Blumenthaler SV failed after a 2–2 draw in regular time on penalties with 5–5 at the Bremen champions and regional league promoted FC Oberneuland.
