History
The club was founded 16 June 1929 as ''FC Bahlingen'' and merged with ''TV Bahlingen'' in 1946 to form the present-day side. Since the early 1960s ''BSC'' has played largely as a fourth tier amateur side. In 1969 the club advanced to third division play where they spent nine seasons until league reorganization saw them placed in the now fourth tier Amateurliga Südbaden. Another reorganization in the early 1990s saw the Amateurliga become a fifth division league.

''. ''BSC'' then slipped to the fifth division in 2005 before returning to the Oberliga Baden-Württemberg for 2006–07 after a single season absence.
The club made an excellent start into the 2011–12 season, defeating FV Illertissen 11–0 in the opening round, eventually finishing eleventh in 2012 and as high as sixth in 2013. In 2014 however the club played closer to the relegation zone, eventually coming 14th. In the 2014–15 season the club finished runners-up in the Oberliga and thereby qualified for the promotion round to the Regionalliga Südwest. After a draw against TSV Lehnerz and a win over SC Hauenstein the club was promoted to the Regionalliga for the first time, but lasted for only one season before being relegated again. By winning the 2018–19 season of the Oberliga, the club returned to Regionalliga.
