Bremer TS Neustadt (officially known as Bremer Turn- und Sportgemeinde Neustadt von 1859 eV) is a sports club located in Bremen, in the Bremen-Neustadt district. The club was formed on January 1, 1972, as a result of the merger between Bremer TG and TuS Bremen-Neustadt. With twelve departments catering to various sports and music activities, Neustadt offers its members a wide range of options to pursue their interests.

Departments

Neustadt encompasses twelve departments, including badminton, basketball, football, handball, karate, athletics, gymnastics, marching band, folklore, table tennis, gymnastics, and volleyball. The football and volleyball departments have been particularly successful in terms of the number of teams and the level of leagues.

History

Men's Football

The men's football team initially competed in the regional league[3] but was subsequently relegated to the district league in 1973. After a brief stint in the association league from 1975 to 1978, they secured two consecutive promotions and gained entry into the Bremen upper house for the first time in 1980. However, the team experienced back-to-back relegations, which led them back to the district league. In 1987, they earned promotion once again and returned to the Bremen upper house, which had been renamed the Association League. In 1991, the team qualified for the newly established Oberliga Niedersachsen/Bremen after two years of battling relegation. This promotion came about due to the withdrawal of higher-placed clubs, OT Bremen and TSV Lesum.

Although narrowly missing out on relegation, the team eventually returned to the top league after four years and made their mark. However, they were unable to maintain their position and were subsequently relegated again. Neustadt men's team competed in the Bremen Association League until 2004. Since their relegation in 2008, they have been playing in the Bremen district league. In the 2011/12 season, Neustadt achieved the district league championship, earning promotion to the Bremen regional league, which is at the sixth-tier level. Three years later, they were promoted to the Bremen League, marking their return to the top-tier Bremen league.

Women's Football

Neustadt women's football team experienced their first successes in the early 1980s. They clinched the Bremen championship title in 1983 and 1984 but were eliminated in the first round at the national level. During the same period, the team qualified for the DFB Pokal on four occasions but faced early exits. In the 1983/84 season, they suffered a 1–16 defeat against KBC Duisburg. After a prolonged period of relative insignificance, the team made a comeback to the DFB Pokal in 2006, only to face a 0–16 loss to VfL Wolfsburg in the first round. Notably, the club produced Christine Frai, a former FIFA referee.
