Borussia Dortmund was founded in 1909 and had only modest success playing in first years. However, when the German Bundesliga was formed in 1963, the team earned its place among the first teams who played in the highest division after winning the last pre-Bundesliga championship. 2 years later in 1965, Borussia Dortmund won its first German Cup.

In the following seasons, Borussia Dortmund had mixed achievements and financial problems that led the team to relegation in 1974 and promotion back two years later. The team had no significant success before the winning the German Cup in 1989.

In 1993, Borussia Dortmund reached the UEFA Cup final before being eliminated by Juventus. In 1995 and 1996, Borussia Dortmund won the Bundesliga championships. One year later in 1997, Borussia Dortmund reached the UEFA Champions League Final in Munich and won the trophy with a 3–1 victory over Juventus.

In 2002, Borussia Dortmund won its third Bundesliga title but lost the 2002 UEFA Cup final. Financial problems stroke the club again and in the following seasons, Borussia Dortmund had to sell many players and replace several coaches. In the 2006/07 season, the team narrowly avoided relegation. The following 2007/08 season was no better than the previous one but in the 2009/10 season, signs of recovering appeared.

In the 2009/10 season Borussia Dortmund finished in the 5th place and for the UEFA Cup . Although the team missed the opportunity to qualify for the Champions League, it was clear to see that Borussia Dortmund is back on track for the 2010/11 season.
