The VfvB Alsum (officially: Association for popular movement games Alsum eV ) was a sports club from the Duisburg district of Alsum . The first soccer team once took part in the Tschammer Cup , the forerunner of the DFB Cup .
history
The association was founded in 1919. In 1937 the team became district class champions with ten points ahead of Duisburg SpV . However, the Alsumers failed in the promotion round to the then first-class Gauliga Niederrhein at Union 02 Hamborn and BV Altenessen 06 . Two years later the team qualified for the Tschammer Cup for the first and only time. There the team met the reigning German champions FC Schalke 04 in the first round , who clearly won the game 13-0. 12,000 spectators saw the game in the Wedaustadion .
After the end of the Second World War , VfvB could no longer build on their old successes and only played at the district level. The club's history ended in the 1950s. In 1954, the city council of Duisburg decided to relocate the Alsum settlement. In 1965 the last resident left Alsum. It is not known whether VfvB Alsum still existed at the time.
