history

B 1901

The 1901 Nykøbing Falster BK club was founded on November 8, 1901. From the beginning, the club was a member of the Lolland-Falsters Boldspil-Union , the Lolland-Falsters Football Association, and the Dansk Boldspil-Union , the Danish football association. One of the club's greatest successes was the finals for the national cup in 1973 and 1983. In the first final they had to admit defeat 2-0 to Randers FC , ten years later 3-0 to Odense BK . Since Odense was also runner-up, they started in the UEFA Cup the following year . B 1901, however, was able to participate in the European Cup Winners' Cup 1983/84 . After a 1-5 and 2-4 defeat against Shakhtar Donetsk , it was over in the first round. As early as 1973, the club took part in the UEFA Intertoto Cup , but also dropped out in the first round. After a 1: 2 defeat in the first leg, it was a 2: 5 defeat in the second leg against Austria Salzburg .

B 1921

Twenty years after the B was built in 1901, Boldklubben followed in 1921, Nykøbing Falster . It was officially founded on May 13, 1921. This club also belongs to the Lolland-Falsters Boldspil Union and the Dansk Boldspil Union.

On July 1, 1994, the associations B 1901 and B 1921 merged to form Nykøbing Falster Alliancen (NFA). From the very beginning, the club has focused on youth work and has always produced some talent. The youngsters work with top national teams like Brøndby IF , and there are regular exchanges of players. The later internationals Esben Hansen and Kim Christensen enjoyed, among other things, their training in the NFA youth department.

At the beginning of 2006, the club changed its name from Nykøbing Falster Alliances to Lolland-Falster Alliances . On June 18, 2006 , their defeat to Lyngby BK sealed in the last game of the season relegation to the 2nd Division East , after three years in the next higher Viasat Sport Division . But they only spent one season in this league and rose again to the first division after defeating Kjøbenhavns Boldklub on June 3, 2007 . There they managed to stay in the league with 12th place. By a 1-0 win on the last day of the 2008/09 season against Skive IK you moved past HIK Fodbold Hellerup , who only played 2-2 against Aarhus Fremad at the same time and thus left the relegation ranks.

With a tie, however, the better goal difference would have spoken for LFA . While they celebrated eight wins in 2008/09, the following year it was only four. Bitter disappointments, such as a 7-0 defeat against Thisted FC and a 5-1 defeat each against Silkeborg IF and Skive IK , ruined any vision of relegation again. This meant rank 14, fourteen points behind a non-relegation zone. So the relegation was already a done deal five matchdays before the end. Shortly after relegation, many top performers left the club. With the help of sponsors it was also possible to keep regular employees like Andreas Bak and Mads Jensen .

Jesper Tollefsen has trained the club since summer 2009 . He was active as an assistant coach for the Danish first division club Aarhus GF between 2001 and 2002 and 2005 and 2007 and can therefore fall back on relevant experience. With this he should lead the club back into the Viasat Sport Division. However, the start of the new season was disappointing. The team scored five points from seven games and only scored two goals.
