Eintracht Munich-Gladbach (officially: Football Club Eintracht Munich-Gladbach 1901 eV ) was a sports club from Mönchengladbach . The first soccer team played for a year in the highest amateur league in the Lower Rhine region.

history

The association was founded on September 15, 1901. In 1917 the club merged with the Munich-Gladbacher SV to form SV Eintracht Munich-Gladbach . Two years later this merger was resolved again. From 1905, Eintracht took part in the championship games of the West German Game Association and five years later made it into the first-class A-class at the time . In the promotion season, Eintracht was runner-up behind the Düsseldorfer SV 04 .

In the following years, the team played with varying degrees of success in the first division. In 1929, the Eintracht missed the qualification for the single-track Rheinbezirksliga and now continued to play in second class. In 1933 the Munich-Gladbachers secured the championship and qualified for the newly created second-rate district class. After a runner-up in 1937 behind SpVg Odenkirchen , Eintracht became champions of their district class a year later. In the subsequent round of promotion to Gauliga Niederrhein , the team failed at Westende Hamborn .

After the end of the Second World War , Eintracht qualified in 1946 for the then first-class district league Linker Niederrhein , from which the team was relegated a year later. In 1948, Eintracht had the chance to return to what is now the state league , the highest amateur league in the Lower Rhine region. As district class champions, the team moved into the promotion round and finished fourth, tied with SpVg Odenkirchen and SC Kleve 63 . In the playoffs for the fourth climber, the Odenkirchener prevailed. Finally, Eintracht Munich-Gladbach merged with SC Munich-Gladbach in 1950 to form 1. FC Munich-Gladbach .
