resolution

Due to the separation in 1919 and the subsequent re-establishment of the associations of Upper Austria (1919), Salzburg (1921), Tyrol (1919) and Vorarlberg (1920) in October 1919, the German-Alpine Football Association became the Football Association for Styria and Renamed Carinthia because only these two federal states remained. On March 20, 1920, this name change was decided and the scope of the name narrowed. The ÖFV had approved this change. As a result, the German-Alpine Football Association disintegrated, after the Carinthian clubs resigned - the reasons given included the poor rail connections - only Styrian teams remained, so that in May 1921 it was renamed the Styrian Football Association.
