Blau-Weiss Post Recklinghausen
Blau-Weiss Post Recklinghausen
This club was founded in 1933 as Post SV Recklinghausen for post office employees. However, the soccer section wasn't officially started until 1961. In 1972, Post merged with Blau-Weiß Nord Recklinghausen, which itself had only started in 1958.
After a decent Oberliga run, Blau-Weiß withdrew mid-season in 1999 and joined the Bezirksliga (7th division), eventually falling further.
