SG Andernach is a German football club from the city of Andernach, Rhineland-Palatinate. The club was formed in 1999 through the merger of the football departments of SpVgg Andernach, BSV 1910 Andernach, and DJK Boulla Andernach based in the earlier association between these sides going back to 1992. SpVgg was the best known of these predecessor sides, having taken part in the first division play in the Gauliga Mittelrhein and Gauliga Moselland under the Third Reich and in the Fußball-Oberliga Rheinland-Pfalz/Saar after World War II.
Spiel- und Sportverein Andernach was established on 30 January 1910. Later that year SuS was joined by Fußball-Club Preußen 1906 Andernach – believed to be the city's first organized football club – and in 1911 by Gymnasial Fußball Klub 1908 Andernach. The team captured its first city title in 1916. The club continued to grow through the 1920s, merging with Sport Club Eintracht 1921 Andernach in 1921 and with FC Rhenania 1910 Andernach on 13 September 1922 to become Spiel- und Sportvereinigung 1867 Andernach.
In 1933 German football was reorganized under the Third Reich into 16 top flight regional divisions known as Gauligen. SpVgg finished atop the Bezirksliga Mittelrhein, Gruppe 5 in 1936 and then won a promotion playoff to advance to the Gauliga Mittelrhein, but spent only a single season there before being sent down after an 11th place finish. They had a successful Bezirksliga campaign in 1937–38, but failed in their attempt to return to Gauliga play when they finished second in the subsequent playoff round.
On 11 December 1938, SpVgg was joined by Turnerbund 1867 Andernach to become SpVgg 1867 Andernach. They won their way back to first division play in 1939 and earned consecutive third place results in 1942 and 1943. However, they withdrew from play because they were unable to field a full side under wartime conditions.
Following the war occupying Allied authorities ordered the dissolution of most organizations in the country, including sports and football clubs. The former membership of SpVgg was reorganized as Sportclub 1945 Andernach on 14 September 1945 before resuming their pre-war identity on 26 July 1947. They became part of the Oberliga Südwest-Nord (I) in the 1947–48 season.
