History
On January 1, 1902, the Turnclub Freisenbruch was founded by men in the Sarhage house. The club has never been particularly successful in sports and, after relegation in the 2022/23 season, plays in the Kreisliga B, the lowest level of German amateur football.{{Cite web |date=2021-03-02 |title=Geschichte |url=https://tcf1902.wpcomstaging.com/geschichte/ |access-date=2024-06-03 |website=TC Freisenbruch 1902 e.V. |language=de-DE}} Since 2016, fans have been able to register as online managers and, for a monthly fee of €5, make decisions. These include the starting lineup, contract extensions, and coach dismissals. The community can decide everything. From 2016 to 2017, Mike Möllensiep was the player-coach of the club.{{Cite web |date=2023-03-23 |title=Abstimmungen |url=https://tcf1902.wpcomstaging.com/verein/abstimmungen/ |access-date=2024-06-03 |website=TC Freisenbruch 1902 e.V. |language=de-DE}}
