By 1930 the club were owners of their own playing field and were still part of B-Klasse competition before the outbreak of World War II. The first team side suspended operations during the war, while the youth team remained active. ''SV'' resumed play in 1946 and by 1950 was playing in the 2. Amateurliga Rheinland (IV).
