About Boldklubben 1901

Nykøbing Falster Boldklub af 1901 (B.1901) is a Danish football club from Nykøbing Falster, founded on 8 November 1901. It quickly became one of the leading clubs in the Lolland-Falster region and was for most of its history the dominant football team in the area. The club was affiliated with the regional football association and took part in early provincial competitions, later becoming part of the national Danish league system.

B.1901 experienced its greatest sporting success in the 1960s and 1970s, when it competed in Denmark’s top divisions. During this period, the club achieved its best league result with a 4th place finish in the 1972 Danish 1st Division. It also reached the Danish Cup final twice, in 1973 and 1983, although it did not manage to win the trophy. In this era, the club also produced and hosted notable players, including future national team figures such as Morten Olsen.

After professional football was introduced in Denmark in 1978, B.1901 gradually lost competitiveness due to financial limitations and began to decline through the divisions. By the early 1990s, the club had fallen out of the top levels of Danish football. In 1994, it entered a collaboration with local rival B.1921 to form Nykøbing Falster Alliancen, which later evolved into Lolland-Falster Alliancen and eventually became part of Nykøbing FC in 2013, marking the end of B.1901 as an independent club.
