After World War II the football side was associated with ''TuS Bothfeld 04'' until re-establishing themselves as an independent club in 1953.

''OSV'' re-established a facility sharing partnership with ''TuS Bothfeld 04'' in the mid-1970s, and had a close brush with bankruptcy in the early 1980s. The club slipped i ...
