Allemannia 22 Berlin was a short-lived German association football club from the city of Berlin. The club was also known as Neuköllner FC Allemannia after the Neukölln district of the city where it was based.[1]
Allemannia was a workers' side that was part of the Arbeiter-Turn- und Sportbund (ATSB, en:Worker's Gymnastics and Sports Federation), a leftist national organization that was active from 1893–1933 until banned under the Nazi regime as politically undesirable. The ATSB staged a football competition and championship separate from that of the DFB (Deutscher Fußball Bund, en:German Football Association) from 1920–33.
In 1923, the club beat Tasmania Forst (3–1) and Komet Altona (3–1) on their way to the ATSB national final against defending two-time champion VfL Leipzig-Südost. The first meeting between the two clubs ended in a 1–0 victory for Leipzig that was annulled following a protest by the Berliners. Allemannia lost the rematch 3–1.[2] The following season the team was eliminated in a quarterfinal series loss to Stern Breslau (0–1, 0–3) in its final playoff appearance before disappearing before the end of the decade.
