history

In 1900, Cricket-Viktoria joined the newly founded Association of Magdeburger Ballspiel-Vereine (VMBV) and took part in its championships with several teams. After disputes with the board of the VMBV as well as with the local rivals Magdeburg FC Viktoria 1896 , Cricket-Viktoria resigned from the association on February 24, 1903 and founded the Magdeburg Sports Association with other Magdeburg clubs . Two months later, Cricket-Viktoria rejoined the Association of Magdeburg Ball Game Clubs. On January 28, 1900, Cricket-Viktoria was one of the founding members of the German Football Association .

In 1908 one of the first German national players played in the ranks of cricket Viktoria. Defender Ernst Jordan was on the pitch for the German national soccer team's premier game , a 3-5 defeat in Switzerland .

It was not until the 1909/10 season that Cricket-Viktoria won its first championship in the 1a class in Mittelelbgau. Up until the outbreak of World War I , the club was able to defend its championship title every year. After the war, the club was a district league team for many years, but after being promoted to the Gauliga Mitte in the 1933/34 season, cricket Viktoria played first-class again until 1942.

From 1897 to 1912 the home games were played on the "Großer Cracauer Anger", but occasionally also on the "Kleiner Cracauer Anger". The “Sternwiese” was used on weekdays. In 1912, the “Cricketer Sports Ground”, a stadium of its own, was built on Jerichower Strasse in Cracau. Because of the impending demolition of the stadium, Cricket-Victoria had to move to Magdeburg's old town in 1938 and from then on play its home games in the police stadium on Hasselbachplatz. After the end of the Second World War , the association was banned and dissolved in 1945. The unofficial successor was SG Sudenburg , a forerunner of today's 1. FC Magdeburg .
