Wikipedia - BFC Meteor 06
BFC Meteor 06 is a German association football club from the city of Berlin. Established 1 June 1906, the team appeared intermittently in first division play in the 1920s and early 1930s and was a second tier fixture throughout the 1950s.
History
Berliner Fußball-Club Meteor was an undistinguished side in its early years, playing in lower tier city competition. In 1918, during World War I, the team briefly played as part of the combined wartime side Kriegsvereinigung Meteor/Roland Berlin with Roland 04 Berlin. They went on to play half a dozen seasons in the Oberliga Berlin (I) between 1922 and 1932, but were never able to place better than seventh. During World War II, the team was again partnered with another club, and spent the 1944–45 season as part of Kriegspielgemeinschaft Meteor/NNW Berlin alongside SV Norden-Nordwest Berlin.
Following the war, occupying Allied authorities disbanded most organizations throughout the country, including sports and football associations. New clubs were soon established and the former memberships of Meteor and Reinickendorfer Fußball-Club Alt-Holland were re-organized as Sportgemeinshaft Schäfersee Berlin. Some time in 1948 the club was renamed SG Blau-Gelb Wedding before Meteor was reformed as a separate side in April 1949 with Alt-Holland following suit in 1950.
Meteor joined the Amateurliga Berlin (II) in the 1952–53 season where they competed as a middling side. They were sent down in 1960 and rejoined the Amateurliga Berlin, now a third tier circuit following the formation of the Bundesliga and Regionalliga (II), in 1963. The performance of the team improved and after a second-place result in 1968 they advanced to the Regionalliga for a two-year turn. Another second-place finish in 1971 returned Meteor to second division play for a single season. A last place finish in the Amateurliga in 1974 saw the club slip away to lower-tier competition.
The team's colors, traditionally vibrant and eye-catching, reflect the club's energetic spirit and dedication to excellence on the field. BFC Meteor 06 competes in various regional leagues, showcasing a blend of experienced players and promising young talent. The club's home matches are held at their well-maintained facilities, where fans gather to support their team with unwavering enthusiasm.
Beyond the competitive aspect, BFC Meteor 06 is deeply rooted in its community, engaging in various outreach programs and initiatives that promote health, fitness, and inclusivity. The club's commitment to nurturing not just skilled athletes but also responsible citizens makes it a beloved institution in Berlin's soccer landscape. Whether on the pitch or in the community, BFC Meteor 06 embodies the spirit of teamwork, resilience, and passion for soccer.
