Braunschweig Football Club has a wonderful history. After its establishment, it soon became a powerful football force in the north. Braunschweig enjoyed early success, competing in the top flight and winning the Northern League title in 1908 and 1913. In 1914, three players were selected for the German national football team. During the Third Reich, the club competed in the Gauliga and was able to appear in the league's playoffs. After the war, except for playing in the second group league in the 1952/53 season, most of the other time they competed in the top league. In 1949, the club's goalkeeper Faehland collided with Werder Bremen's striker, causing internal bleeding and dying a few days later. In 1958, the club once again appeared in the playoffs, finishing third.

Braunschweig's stable performance and stable financial situation have made Braunschweig one of the 16 founding members of the German Football League. The club once again enjoyed results after that, winning the German championship in the 1966/67 season with solid defense and conceding only 27 goals in the entire season. This record was not broken until Werder Bremen in 1988.

Braunschweig almost became the league champion again in 1977, but in the end they were overwhelmed by the champion Munson Garber by one point, and were overwhelmed by the runner-up Schwarz 04 with a goal difference and had to finish third. Three. At that time, the club had ten players selected for the German national team, most of whom joined in the 1960s or 1970s.

Braunschweig was involved in a league scandal in 1971, but things were a little unusual. A group of players received a payment of 40,000 marks, but this time they had to try their best to win the game, rather than not playing hard and causing the team to draw or lose. In the end, two players were suspended and 10 players were fined.

In 1973, Braunschweig became the first Bundesliga club to have a trademark printed on their jerseys in front of some opponents, but they did not accept the change of the club's name to Eintracht Jägermeister. The deal, worth DM 100,000, also introduced a new approach to football business, which was followed by other clubs.

Until the mid-1980s, Braunschweig played most of the time in the Bundesliga, with only two drops to the second division, in the 1973/74 and 1980/81 seasons. In 322 Bundesliga games from 1963 to 1973, no player was sent off the field by a red card. This record has not yet been broken by any club. Since the beginning of the 1985/86 season, Braunschweig has competed in the second and third divisions. In 1987, they set another record by becoming the only club to achieve a positive goal difference and still need to be relegated. This year, they scored 52 goals and conceded 47 goals.
