1995–96 VfL Bochum season

The 1995–96 VfL Bochum season was the 58th season in club history.

Review and events
The 1995–96 season was the first season in German football where teams received three points for a win (instead of two), and one point for a draw. Due to the German Football Association lifting the requirement of starting squads wearing jerseys with the numbers one to eleven, it was the first season for the VfL Bochum to assign numbers to its players and feature the players' names on their jerseys.
