In 2005, the three Bezirksligas in Lower Franconia were reduced to two and renamed and ''SVH'' was placed in the Bezirksliga Unterfranken Gruppe 1, where the club initially played as an upper table side, finishing in third place on two occasions.

After a number of years in the Kreisliga Würzburg 1 as an upper table side the club won the league in 2013 and earned promotion back to the Bezirksliga.
