DS cup

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The DS-Pokal was a one-time soccer cup competition in the GDR that was held in the summer of 1950 in parallel with the FDGB cup . It was organized by the German Sports Committee ("DS") for the sports communities that were founded directly after the Second World War for specific locations or districts and that had not yet joined the system of company sports associations. The company sports associations or central sports associations, which were sponsored by one or more companies, as well as the teams of the People's Police , took part in the FDGB Cup, which was held at the same time .

In the following year, 1951, no republic-wide cup competition was held in the GDR. From 1952 onwards, only the FDGB Cup was played, in which all football clubs in the GDR now took part regardless of their status.
