About SC Tasmania 1900 Berlin

SC Tasmania 1900 Berlin was a German football club from the Berlin district of Neukölln. It was founded on 2 June 1900 as Rixdorfer TuFC Tasmania 1900; its founders are believed to have planned to emigrate to Australia and named the club after their intended destination, Tasmania.

Tasmania played in the 1962–63 Inter-Cities Fairs Cup, losing to the Utrecht XI in the first round. In 1965, when Hertha BSC lost its Bundesliga licence and the league wanted to keep a club from Berlin for political reasons, Tasmania, the third-placed side of the Regionalliga Berlin, was promoted just two weeks before the 1965–66 season.

It became the worst team in Bundesliga history, winning only two of 34 matches, scoring 15 goals and conceding 108, and was relegated after one season. The club never returned to the Bundesliga and went bankrupt in 1973.
