About Sportklub Sofia

Sportklub Sofia was a Bulgarian football club based in Sofia, founded in 1912 originally under the name SC Karavelov. It was created in the Tri Kladentsi district and later renamed Sportklub Sofia after several early reorganisations, including a short merger with Slavia Sofia in 1919–1920 before becoming independent again. The club gradually developed into one of the stronger sides in the early Sofia football scene and participated in the city’s first organised competitions.

After the political changes in 1944, Sportklub Sofia was dissolved and merged with other clubs (Sokol Sofia and Vazrazhdane Sofia), forming Septemvri Sofia on its base. This marked the end of Sportklub as an independent entity, but its legacy continued through its successor clubs. Today, it is remembered as one of the early historic teams of Sofia, notable mainly for its 1935 championship and its role in the development of Bulgarian football in the capital.
