The SK Pardubice was a Czech football club from the East Bohemian city of Pardubice . The club, founded in 1905, played in the top division between 1937 and 1946.
Club history
SK Pardubice was founded on August 27, 1905. From 1913 to 1916 the club took part in the so-called Charity Cup , the most important Czech competition at the time. At the first official championship of the Czech Football Association ČSF in 1913, SK Pardubice was last with only one point from seven games. The second participation in 1917 was unsuccessful.
When professionalism was introduced in 1925, SK Pardubice remained in the amateur camp. In the same year the team was East Bohemian champions and took part in the finals for the Czechoslovak amateur championship. In the qualifying round, the blue and white Viktoria Pilsen defeated 5: 3, in the first main round the Rapid Vinohrady team lost 1: 3. In the 1931/32 season, the SK Pardubice again took part in the finals of the Czechoslovak amateur championship, but this time already in the qualification with 2: 4 and 2: 3 against Rapid Praha . The team also fought for participation in the following year. The end came in the first round, in which SK Ba SKa Zlín proved to be too strong (2: 2 and 1: 3).
After the separation between professional and amateur camps, the SK Pardubice was initially second class. The team was promoted to the state league in the 1936/37 season. In the first year in the top division of the SK Pardubice was ninth, then three times in a row third. In the years 1942/43 and 1943/44, the team played against relegation, but was able to prevent this in each case. The last game year of the Pardubice in the state league was the season 1945/46. With only nine points from 18 games, relegation was certain in the end.
After the Communist Party seized power in February 1948 , the club was renamed MZK Pardubice. On political orders, the team played for the last free place in the newly organized top division against the military club ATK Prague . The ATK won the first leg 4: 3, the MZK also won 4: 3. In the playoff, the soldiers got the upper hand 7-1. Before the 1949 season, the club was renamed ČSSZ Pardubice and took part in the Oblastní soutěž , the second-highest division at the time, which was briefly the third-highest division in the 1950 season due to the one-year introduction of a nationwide second division. From 1951 to 1953, ČSSZ Pardubice was second class again. In 1953 the club changed its name to Tatran Pardubice. After 1954 - the reason was a reorganization of the divisions - the team was in third class again.
On January 1, 1960 Tatran Pardubice went on in Spartak Pardubice, the new club was named Tesla Pardubice. The former SK Pardubice was thus extinguished.
