The SV 08 Ricklingen is a German rugby union club from the Ricklingen suburb of Hanover. The team plays in the 2nd Rugby-Bundesliga, the second tier of German rugby. After having formed an on-the-field union with DSV 78 Hannover from 2003 to 2009 instead of fielding an independent team, the club left this partnership at the end of the 2008–09 season. Instead, it formed a partnership with TuS Wunstorf from the 2009–10 season onwards. The team now plays as SG TuS Wunstorf/08 Ricklingen.
The club has three German rugby union championships to its name, won in 1950, 1960 and 1974.[1]
