Association of Wilhelmshaven ball game clubs
The Association of Wilhelmshavener Ballspielvereine (VWBV) was a football association to which the clubs of the city of Wilhelmshaven had merged in 1905 and which soon became part of the North German Football Association .
The VWBV was founded on September 25, 1905 in the Heppenser Bürgergarten by the following clubs: FC Wilhelmshaven , FC Preußen , FC Viktoria and Frisia Wilhelmshaven (that was the oldest club founded in 1903) and Comet (later VfL) Rüstringen . The first three clubs mentioned merged in 1906 to form FC Germany .
The first chairman of the association was Alfred Vierke, who came from Berlin and was replaced a few months later by Eilert Heine. In terms of playing technology, the clubs of the VWBV were subordinate to the Association of Bremen Football Associations , until the Wilhelmshaven Association was dissolved as an independent organization in 1907 , incorporated into the regional association and assigned to NFV District IX (Oldenburg, later Northwest) . Heine became the first district chairman. In the same year came Marine Sports Club (MSC) added as a new foundation, which after the First World War in VfB Wilhelmshaven renamed.
Today's Wilhelmshaven district of the Lower Saxony Football Association sees itself in the tradition of the VWBV . It has (as of 2008) twelve member clubs.
