About Bohemians Praha 1905

Bohemians 1905 is one of the oldest football clubs in the Czech Republic, founded in 1905 in Prague as AFK Vršovice. The club quickly became part of the early development of Czech football and established itself as a traditional Prague team. Its most famous identity element, the kangaroo in the crest, comes from a historic 1927 tour of Australia, which became a defining moment in the club’s history.

During the 20th century, Bohemians experienced several periods in the top division of Czechoslovak and later Czech football. Their most successful era came in the early 1980s, highlighted by winning the Czechoslovak First League in the 1982–83 season and reaching the semi-finals of the UEFA Cup. The club also became known for its instability in the 2000s, when financial problems nearly led to its collapse, but it was saved largely thanks to strong fan involvement and support.

In the modern era, Bohemians 1905 competes in the Czech First League and is known for its strong identity, loyal fanbase, and iconic stadium Ďolíček in Prague’s Vršovice district. The club has a unique supporter culture and is closely associated with its community-driven revival after financial crisis, which strengthened its reputation as one of the most fan-connected clubs in Czech football.
