FV Dudenhofen (officially: Fussballverein 1920 eV) is a football sports club from Dudenhofen in the Rhineland-Palatinate Rhein-Pfalz-Kreis. The first team has been playing in the Oberliga Rheinland-Pfalz/Saar since 2019.
The club was founded in 1920.[1] After the interim dissolution after the end of the Second World War, the club was re-established on February 16, 1946, which then merged with TV Dudenhofen. In 1949, the team was dissolved again. In addition to football, the club also offers table tennis.
The greatest success before the end of the war was the Mittelpfalzgau Championship in 1931, Amateurliga Vorderpfalz. Four years later, the Dudenhofen champions managed to get promoted to the Amateurliga Südwest. After the 1970–71 season, the team had to be relegated two years later. In 1980, it went back to the district league. This was followed by a direct resurgence before the Dudenhofener succeeded in 1987 in what is now called the Verbandsliga Südwest, the highest amateur league. This time the team lasted two years before the Dudenhofen team had to be relegated to the newly created Landesliga Ost in 1989.
Two consecutive relegations brought the club into the district league in 1993, before two consecutive promotions brought the Dudenhofen team back to the state league in 1997. After direct relegation, the club went up again in 2001 to the national league. Six years later, the club returned to the league and reached the final of the Südwestpokal in 2009, which they lost 3–0 to FK Pirmasens. Two years later, the Dudenhofen team became runners-up in the Verbandsliga Südwest behind Arminia Ludwigshafen.
In 2015, the club again reached the final of the Southwest Cup. In front of more than 1800 spectators, Dudenhoven beat TuS Mechtersheim in the local derby. On May 13, 2015, FV Dudenhofen met regional league club FK Pirmasens for the second time since 2009 in the final. In a game that was balanced until the end, FV Dudenhofen had to accept the 1–0 winning goal from FK Pirmasens in the 120th minute of the game and thus lost for the second time against the regional league team in an association cup final.
In the 2016–17 season, the club was able to win the championship in the Verbandsliga Südwest and the associated promotion to the Oberliga Rheinland-Pfalz/Saar to celebrate.
