SV Ahlerstedt/Ottendorf

The club was founded in 1970 and started its footballing life in the lower leagues of the Stade district. The men's squad first reached the Verbandsliga Niedersachsen (V) in 1976 but was relegated after two seasons. SV returned as Bezirksoberliga Lüneburg (VI) champions in 1988 back to the fifth tier, now called Landesliga West, and transferred to the eastern division after one season. In 1991, it finished at fifth place and three years later became a founding member of the renamed Bezirksliga Lüneburg (VI) after reforms in the league system. SV had another tenure in 2009 to the renamed Niedersachsenliga (V) as Lüneburg champions and, despite a 12th-place result, dropped back to the newly renamed Landesliga after another reform.

The women's squad was one of the original teams in the Regionalliga Nord (III), finishing fourth in 2004–05, and five seasons later it achieved its best ever third-place finish behind runner-up Mellendorfer TV. After a last-place finish and 13 seasons in the Regionalliga, the SV women slipped to the Oberliga Niedersachsen (IV).
