Updated: 12/11/2025, 2:25:29 PM Wikipedia source
DSC Arminia Bielefeld (pronounced [ˌdeːʔɛsˈtseː ʔaʁˈmiːni̯a ˈbiːləfɛlt]; full name: Deutscher Sportclub Arminia Bielefeld e.V. [ˈdɔʏtʃɐ ˈʃpɔʁtklʊp ʔaʁˈmiːni̯a ˈbiːləfɛlt]; commonly known as Arminia Bielefeld (German pronunciation: [aʁˌmiːnia ˈbiːləfɛlt] ), also known as Die Arminen [diː ˈʔaʁmiːnən] or Die Blauen [diː ˈblaʊən]), or just Arminia (pronounced [aʁˌmiːnia] ), is a German sports club from Bielefeld, North Rhine-Westphalia. Arminia is best known as a professional football club, having competed in the first-tier Bundesliga for a total of 19 seasons. It currently plays in the 2. Bundesliga after winning promotion in the 2024–25 3. Liga season. The club also operates field hockey, figure skating and cue sports departments. Arminia won two West German Championships, in 1922 and 1923. They were also successful in the 1980s and 2000s, having played five consecutive years in the Bundesliga in each of those decades. Arminia have earned a reputation as a yo-yo club (Fahrstuhlmannschaft) for their frequent promotions and relegations. They had prolonged spells in regional third-tier football in the 1950s and early 1990s, but have also been promoted to the Bundesliga eight times, and most recently played in the Bundesliga in 2021–22. The team reached the final of the DFB-Pokal for the first time in 2025, but lost 4–2 to Stuttgart. Arminia's colours are black, white and blue. They have played home games at the Bielefelder Alm Stadium since 1926. The stadium's current capacity of 27,332 includes 7,940 as terracing and 19,392 seats. Since 2004, Bielefelder Alm has been named SchücoArena through a sponsorship deal. The club's supporters primarily originate from the Ostwestfalen-Lippe region, and supporters' groups primarily congregate in Bielefelder Alm's south stand during matches. Arminia's longest-standing rivalry is with SC Preußen Münster, a club from western Westphalia.
