History
The origins of the club go back to the 19th century founding of a gymnastics club. The footballers first came to notice in the mid-90s with their advance to the Verbandsliga Württemberg (V) in 1995.
After twice finishing as vice-champions in the Verbandsliga and failing to win promotion to the Oberliga Baden-Württemberg (IV) in subsequent playoffs, TSG finally claimed the league title in 2008 and advanced to what has become a fifth tier competition following the introduction of the 3. Liga. They won the Oberliga Baden-Württemberg in 2018 to gain promotion to the Regionalliga Südwest.
TSG Balingen har vunnit Verbandsliga Württemberg två gånger, 2007 och 2012, och har även spelat i den tredje divisionen, 3. Liga, under två säsonger. Klubbens största framgångar är att ha nått andra omgången i DFB-Pokal, den tyska cupen, vid tre tillfällen, 2013–14, 2017–18 och 2020–21.
TSG Balingens hemmamatcher spelas på Bizerba-Arena, som har en kapacitet på 5 000 åskådare. Klubbens färger är rött, vitt och svart.
