Türkspor Berlin is a German association football club from the city of Berlin.
History[edit]
Formed as an ethnically Turkish sports club in 1965, the team won its way into the Landesliga Berlin (IV) in 1989 before going on to spend three seasons (1991–94) as a lower-tier side in third division play in the Oberliga Nordost-Mitte where their best result came as a 9th-place finish in 1992–93. Following league reorganization in 1994, the Oberliga was reduced to two divisions and Türkspor was moved to the Oberliga Nordost-Nord (IV) where the club played just one season before they were relegated after finishing 15th.[1] Türkspor spent the rest of the 1990s moving up and down between Verbandsliga and Landesliga play before finally slipping into lower-level competition. For 2016–17 the club restarted their senior team in the Kreisliga C Berlin (XI) after not playing in the league for three years. In December 2017, Türkspor merged with SpVgg Hellas-Nordwest 04 and continued under the current name, replacing the latter's position in the Berlin-Liga (VI).[2]
A high point of the club's history was their advance to the final of the Berliner Landespokal (Berlin Cup) in 1999 where they were beaten 1–4 by BFC Dynamo.
