Athletic Sportklub Koma Elektra is a football club from the Leopoldstadt district of the Austrian capital Vienna . The association emerged in 2013 from a merger of FS Elektra with AS Koma , which was founded in 1984 . The highlight of the predecessor's club history was the 1950/51 season, which Elektra spent in what was then the first division, the State League A. Then began a descent to the lowest amateur areas.
Founding history
The club was founded in 1921 by employees of the Engerthstrasse power plant in Vienna as the Elektra Wien sports club with the club colors red and white. In 1923, the first Elektra football field was opened in what is now Kafkastrasse. From 1921 to 1924 the club was a member of the General Football Association, the forerunner of today's WFV . In 1924 the people in charge of the SC Elektra decided to transfer to the newly founded Association-Arbeiter-Fußball-Österreich ( VAFÖ for short ) and stayed there until its dissolution in 1934. In addition to the SC Elektra Vienna (Kraftwerk II, Engerthstrasse) there was also at that time the E-Werksvereine SC E-Werk IX (Directorate IX, Mariannengasse) and SC E-Werk XI (Kraftwerk XI, Simmering). In 1932, at the request of the employee representatives, these three associations were finally merged to form the culture and sports association of Wiener Elektrizitätswerke . From this point on, the football section of the sports club appeared as SC E-Werk Wien . Due to the merger of the three clubs, the SC E-Werk now had three football pitches, the Elektraplatz in Kafkastraße (then Josef-Christ-Gasse), the E-Werk IX-Platz in Engerthstraße and the E-Werk XI-Platz ( today's Mautnerplatz) in Haidestrasse.
The beginning of the 1930s was very turbulent for the club. After the dissolution of the VAFÖ, the SC E-Werk had to temporarily stop its gaming operations in 1934, but was allowed to compete in the 2nd class of the WFV in 1935. Due to the political situation at the time and the close relationship between the club and its players and social democracy , the SC E-Werk was dissolved.
Re-establishment in 1945
As early as 1945, immediately after the end of the war , many old club members got together and reactivated the SC E-Werk Wien under its old name. However, the re-establishment and the start of gaming operations turned out to be difficult, as there were almost no players left. In spite of this, SC E-Werk Wien managed again in 1946 to put together a complete team for the season in the 2nd class in Vienna. The most successful years of the E-Werk-Verein followed. In 1948 it was decided to rename the football section of the KSV of Wiener Elektrizitätswerke to FS Elektra Wien. After the championship title in the 2nd class B was won in 1949, the title in the Vienna league followed a year later and the associated promotion to the Austrian State Football League . The club was not able to maintain itself in the top Austrian league, but from now on it could at least claim to have been first class once. With three wins and one draw, FS Elektra only reached 13th and last place and was relegated to the State League B. Even there they only reached twelfth place and then played a class lower in the Vienna league. - In the last seasons of the State League B, 1957/58 and 1958/59, one was again - thanks to the title in the Vienna League 1956/57 - represented there (reached ranks 6 and 10). Since the introduction of the Regionalliga Ost in 1959/60, Elektra has always been well placed. In 1962/63, the team finished second with 35 points, tied with champions 1. Wiener Neustädter SC , but the title was missed by two defeats in the last two rounds and the 0: 2 at SC Eisenstadt (who thereby defeated the Descent saved) in the last round on June 16 the simultaneous Wr. Neustädter Faller (0: 4 at Kremser SC ) could not use (source: Internet site "Fußball in Österreich" and "Arbeiterzeitung Wien" from June 18). The direct duel in the 21st round went 3-1 to Elektra. - Even after that there were mostly attractive placings, in 1966/67 it was a (again) 5th place, but in the following season the 13th place meant relegation. The relegation succeeded immediately, but again (1970/71) it was called, this time third from bottom, relegation. This time there was no re-promotion afterwards - and the major reform after the 1973/74 season did not allow re-promotion. Nevertheless, reaching the third cup round in the 1973/74 season, as a member of the Vienna League, was another milestone in the history of the E-Werks athletes: After a 2-1 win against SV Admira Wiener Neustadt, FS Elektra Vienna kicked off also the First Vienna FC 1894 with a 2-1 victory from the competition. In the third round, the Elektra lost against the team of the Austrian record champions SK Rapid Wien after a courageous game with 1: 2. From 1975/76 they played again in the RL Ost, which was now only the third highest level in Austria. But as the 14th (penultimate) there was relegation again in 1977/78.
After the 2012/13 season, the club merged with AS Koma, which was founded in 1984, and has since played in the Vienna Oberliga B under the name ASK Elektra . The association sees itself as a continuation of the history and traditions of AS Koma.

Women's soccer
With the introduction of the first Austrian women's football championship in 1972/73, which at that time was still organized by the Vienna Football Association, FS Elektra Vienna also founded a women's football section. The women of Elektra became three-time Austrian champions, two-time cup winners and indoor champions, putting the successes of their male colleagues in the shade. However, these successes could not prevent the women's football section from being dissolved again in 1981 .
