History
editTSV was founded in 1913 as a gymnastics club. Football was soon introduced to the club by students who brought the game back from Munich. A football department was established within the association on 11 January 1930.
Following World War II, Buchbach played in local A-Class competition until slipping to B-Class play in 1960, where they remained until returning to the A-class in 1980. In the mid-1990s, with solid sponsorship in place, they began their record-making unbeaten run. They advanced to the Landesliga Süd (V) in 2004 and a title in 2008 saw TSV promoted to the Bayernliga (V).
At the end of the 2011–12 season the club finished in the top nine of the Bayernliga and directly qualified for the new tier-four Regionalliga Bayern.[1] TS finished sixth, fifth and fourth in the first three seasons[2] and they have remained in the league since.

Unbeaten record 1995 – 1998
editFollowing a 5–1 defeat on 14 June 1995 to FC Grünthal, which meant relegation to the C-Klasse, then the lowest league in Bavaria, the club started a record-breaking run of 75 unbeaten league games. In the 1995–96 season, it played 26 games in the C-Klasse Inn/Salzach – Group 4, coming first with 20 wins and six draws and earning promotion back to the B-Klasse.
The following season, the club again earned a league championship, now in the B-Klasse Inn/Salzach Group 3. In 26 games it achieved 18 wins and 8 draws. In 1997–98, the club remained undefeated in the first 23 of 26 league matches, before losing 3–1 at home to SV Waldhausen on 24 May 1998. Nevertheless, promotion was once more achieved.[7] The record held until 2006 when it was taken by BSG Stahl Riesa with 78 consecutive league matches without a defeat.[8]
