And the track record went on for the Judolions, as they where named for their club emblem. In order to focus more on the performance sports the old Judo department became the SFV Europa Judo Club within the Police Sports Club in 2002, and that was the name of the team finally reaching the play offs for the rise into the 1. Federal German Judo League under the lead of Coach Axel Broege and sports director Hermann Rossberg. Young Athletes like Marco Nicolosi, Simon Voss and Ingo Kucz supported the Team and made it into the first German League again.

The young athletes of the club training in cooperation with the first partner school for performance sports Judo also developed their abilities. They were all members of the regional squad now and Ann Katrin Breitbarth even made it into the girls national team. The successful concept made it possible that the International German Championships (German Open) were first organized by the SFV Europa Judo Club in Braunschweig and this international event subsequently stayed in town for several years to come. This would not have been possible without the financial support of several sponsors (TXU Energy, Autohaus Schmetzer Volvo, Bischoff Reisen, Baugenossenschaft Wiederaufbau, Fi. Krumpholz Büroausstattungen) won as partners by the club organisation committee (Dr. Hedda Sander, Hermann Rossberg, Helmut Reise, Andreas Hürtler).
