History
While the club traces its origins back to 1901 the current club, SC Westend 1901, was formed in 1933 when Charlottenburger FC 01 Concordia merged with Charlottenburger FC Viktoria to form Charlottenburger FC 1901. In 1945, after the Second World War, Charlottenburger FC became SG Charlottenburg-Nord which temporarily adopted the name SG Westend Berlin from 1946 to 1948. A year after reverting to its former name the club finally became SC Westend 1901 in 1949.
After the frequent name changes in the post-war era, the club finished runners-up in the tier two Amateurliga Berlin in 1950 and thereby earned promotion to the Oberliga Berlin. It played at this level for two seasons, finishing tenth out of 14 clubs but came second-last the season after and was relegated back to the Amateurliga.
Westend became a lower table side in the Amateurliga and was relegated from this level, too, in 1956.

Why this record matters

The record creator and administrative purpose are central evidence, because official documentation reflects both action and institutional priorities. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 2, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q731035. 2 of 2 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1901, 1950, 1963 and 1973.
Official terminology may obscure informal participation, dissent or communities documented only indirectly. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
