South German football championship 1900/01

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The South German soccer championship 1900/01 was the third competition held by the Association of South German Soccer Clubs (VsFV). After the canceled final, the Karlsruher FV was named champion. As in the previous year, the final round suffered from the non-appearance of teams and the resulting deviations from the game plan and schedule. It remained confusing and in the end was not decided on the field.

After only a few teams from the cities along the Upper Rhine between Freiburg and Mannheim had participated in the first two years of the southern German championship, their number rose sharply after the turn of the century. In the years 1899 and 1900 a number of clubs were founded in southern German cities, in particular in Frankfurt in 1899 the two forerunners of Eintracht ( Kickers and Victoria ) as well as the FSV and in Stuttgart the Kickers , and the following year in Munich the FC Bavaria , in Nuremberg the " Club " and in the Palatinate the first forerunner clubs of 1. FC Kaiserslautern and from southwest Ludwigshafen .

Not all of them immediately joined the southern German association, and some member clubs did not take part in finals due to the great distances involved. In addition, local football associations were formed - first in Mannheim ( MFB ) and Karlsruhe ( KFB ) in 1899 and in Frankfurt ( FAB ) in 1900 , and later in other regions as well - which organized their own championship rounds.

In autumn 1900 the VsFV had 13 member clubs, of which at least twelve participated in the championship or at least had registered. The Stuttgarter Kickers , the first Württemberg club to join the association on July 8, 1900, were the only Württemberg representative that year, and FC Bayern Munich was the first club from Bavaria to take part in the VsFV championship. His two-time meeting with the Karlsruher FV, however, did not take place on both occasions. Two teams from Frankfurt took part: FC Germania 1894 and FC Victoria 1899 .

The final round of the southern German championship continued in 1900/01 in cup mode. It is unclear whether and in what form regional preliminary rounds took place, but unlikely due to the direct participation of almost all associations. Until the presumed semi-finals, only the results of individual games are known, which cannot easily be assigned to a specific round (see web links).
