The FV Progres Frankfurt was a football club from Frankfurt am Main . It was founded in 1971 by guest workers from the former Yugoslavia living in Frankfurt and dissolved in 1998.

In 1992, the team of the Serb- dominated club reached the Landesliga Hessen Süd for the first time and two years later even rose to the Oberliga Hessen .

In the first season of 1994/95 they took a sensational third place there, but in the following year there were internal disputes about financial bottlenecks and the lack of a home ground - they did not have their own football field, but only enjoyed hospitality at the Frankfurt- Niederrad, which was home to SKG Frankfurt - were shaped. As a result, the team fell apart and was relegated to the state league.

The end of the club came when the Hessian Football Association (HFV) stipulated during the 1997/98 season that all clubs playing above the regional league must have registered at least two youth teams for play. For the 1998/99 season, the FV Progres was therefore downgraded to the district league, whereupon the team fell apart and the club disbanded before the start of the season.
