history

Old logo of the club

The Cottbuser FV 1898 was founded in 1898 under the name TuFC Britannia Cottbus . Together with other clubs from Cottbus, the Niederlausitzer Ballspiel-Vereine association was founded in 1900 and the first point games were played against other clubs from Cottbus. When the association joined the Southeast German Football Association in 1906 , TuFC Britannia Cottbus played in the Niederlausitz district class from then on. In 1907 they won their first championship title in the Niederlausitz district class and were thus allowed to take part in the 1907 Southeast German soccer championship. In this one reached the final, which was lost against SC Schlesien Breslau with 1: 2.

In 1918 the name was changed to Cottbuser FV 1898 . The Britannia was canceled in many German football clubs as the UK one of the enemies in the First World War was. In 1922, 1923, 1926, 1929 and 1933 the Niederlausitz football championship was won again, although in 1922, for unknown reasons, participation in the final round of the Southeast German football championship was waived. The 1920s were marked by a rivalry between Cottbuser FV and FC Viktoria Forst , which mostly made up the championship titles of Niederlausitz among themselves. However, the Cottbus FV could never win the Southeast German Championship .

In 1933 there was a merger with the CSC / Friesen Cottbus to form SV Cottbus-Süd ; However, this was already reversed in 1934, after one had won the last place in the Gauliga Berlin-Brandenburg . In the following years one could no longer qualify for the Gauliga. After the Second World War , the football clubs were dissolved. Unlike other clubs, the Cottbus FV was not re-established in 1898 .
