History

Early history

Boldklubben Marienlyst was founded in 1922, and it is thus Odense's fifth oldest still existing football club, after OB, B 1909, B 1913 and Odense KFUM. The founders were boys playing association football at Marienlystgade (now Marienlystvej) and surrounding streets, and they named the club after the street in the Skibhus district. [1]

The club's first pitch was a newly harvested field next to a grocery store on Skibhusvej 242. Dressing took place in open air. The players' kits were – regardless of the weather – hung in a bushes and trees. [1]

The club's first clubhouse was an ice cream parlour. In 1923, the board gave one of the members, Svend Zachariasen, permission to erect an ice cream parlour for an annual payment of DKK 110. Soda and homemade ice cream were sold there. Isboden Marienlyst was written on a small sign above the serving hatch. The first real clubhouse with a small changing room was built in 1924 by voluntary labour. The clubhouse and the pitch were located on the corner plot of Skibhusvej / Drejøgade, where Marienlund Nursing Home was later built. [1]

In 1928, Marienlyst had a pitch and clubhouse on the opposite side of Skibhusvej, by Sandhusvej, which became the club's home ground for almost half a century. The entrance to the railway facility was initially next to Skibhusvej, and on the long side by Sandhusvej there was a small grandstand. Marienlyst was enrolled in Fyns Boldspil-Union (DBU Funen) in 1923 and was placed in the FBU B-række division, the third regional tier of the local association. However, due to the favourable geographical location in an area with many families and youths, the club quickly became one of Funen's most prominent. They made their debut in the FBUs Mesterrække in 1926; the highest regional level. [1]

Three times – in 1929, 1921 and 1933 – Marienlyst won the Funen Cup. In 1929, 1,000 spectators saw the club beat local rivals Odense Boldklub (OB)'s first team 1–0 in the cup final. [1]

Achievements in the 1970s

The 1970s proved to be some of the most active periods in the history of Marienlyst. The current home ground of the club, Marienlystcentret, was inaugurated during this decade, as was the fanclub Boldklubben Marienlysts Venner. The facilities on Sandhusvej had become too cramped, and in the early 1970s club management succeeded to create the possibility relocating to a large municipal plot between Windelsvej and Hedvigslundskoven. [5] Among other things, by virtue of a very extensive voluntary workforce, Marienlyst was able to build a new sports center with two indoor sporting facilities, seven football pitches, and rooms for players and staff. After some meagre years, where the club struggled in the Series 1 (second regional tier – sixth national tier) up through the 1970s, they finally managed to turn it around in 1977 to secure promotion to the Funen Series. [5] In 1979, Marienlyst even managed to win the Funen Series with a strong team coached by Arnold Petersen, and achieve promotion to the Denmark Series. Well-known Marienlyst profiles from the 1970s were, Lars Petersen, Preben "Tordenskjold" Knudsen (later OB), Preben Frøtorp, Allan Hoffmann Nielsen, Allan Jakobsen, Henrik Petersen and goalkeeper Bjarne Sørensen. The club's record for first team appearances is held by Lars Petersen with 432 (between 1972–1995), followed by Allan Hoffmann Nielsen (1973–1991) with 409 and Preben Hansen (1970–1988) with 320. [5]

Recent years

In 2011, Marienlyst reached promotion to the 2nd Division (third-tier) for the first time in club history, after a 4–0 win over Kolding IF. [6] After two years in the third best tier, the club even reached promotion to the 1st Division in 2013 after promotion rivals Aarhus Fremad only managed a 0–0 result against Kjellerup IF. [7] Some weaker years followed, however, and by 2019, Marienlyst were back in the fourth tier again. [1]

Volleyball

Marienlyst volleyball department was established in 1976.

Funen Series Football league

Funen Series for men, also known as Albani Series for men for sponsorship reasons, and often shortened to FS serien and FS Herre, is the highest division for men organised by the regional football association DBU Fyn (DBUF) and one of the fifth-highest divisions overall in the Danish football league system. The league, deciding the Funen Football Championship, was first introduced with the 1904–05 season and throughout the years the competition format have gone through several series of changes. At the time of the league's introduction, it was placed at the top of the Danish football league system featuring the best regional amateur teams of Funen, but has since been moved to its current status as the fifth best level in Danish football, after a short period as the sixth best level, now featuring lower ranking amateur teams including the reserve squads of clubs playing at the Danish third league tier or above.

The 1926–27 FBUs Mesterskabsrække was the 23rd season of the Funen Football Championship since its establishment in 1904 under the administration of Fyns Boldspil-Union (FBU). This was the first season played under the new name, Mesterskabsrækken, after the top-flight Funen league had previously been named A-rækken, a name that was passed on to the Funen second tier league. The launch of the season began on 26 September 1926 with three matches and the final round of regular league fixtures were played in April 1927 with the play-off matches being held on 1–8 May 1927. Svendborg BK were the defending league champions. The winner of the league would automatically qualify for the semifinals of the Provincial championship tournament that was held as part of the 1926–27 Landsfodboldturneringen that was played at the end of the regular season. The three highest ranking teams in the final standings participated in the inaugural season of the new Danish Championship play-off structure, the 1927–28 Danmarksmesterskabsturneringen i Fodbold. All eligible teams in the FBUs Mesterskabsrække including the best teams of the 1926–27 FBUs A-række would also participate in the next season of the Funen regional cup tournament, 1927 FBUs Pokalturnering.

FBUs Pokalturnering was a Danish regional knockout association football competition contested annually from 1920 to 1953 by members of the regional football association Funen FA (FBU). Organised by and named after FBU, it was the third regional cup competition introduced on a national level, and the second in the province, after the KBUs Pokalturnering in 1910 and the LFBUs Pokalturnering in 1915. The 1953 season of the cup tournament became the last edition due to the Danish FA's introduction of a new national-wide cup competition in 1954.

The 1927–28 FBUs Mesterskabsrække was the 24th season of the Funen Football Championship since its establishment in 1904 under the administration of Fyns Boldspil-Union (FBU), and the 2nd season since the league was renamed to the FBUs Mesterskabsrække. The launch of the season began on 2 October 1927 and the final round of regular league fixtures were played on 29 April 1928 with the play-off promotion/relegation match being held on 13 May 1928. B 1909 were the defending league champions from the 1926–27 season. The league ran simultaneously with the inaugural edition of the 1927–28 Danmarksmesterskabsturneringen i Fodbold, in which three the league's best placed teams from the previous season participated. The three highest ranking teams in the final standings would automatically qualify for the 1928–29 Danmarksmesterskabsturneringen i Fodbold. All eligible teams in the FBUs Mesterskabsrække including the top placed teams of the 1927–28 FBUs A-række would also participate in the next season of the Funen regional cup tournament, 1928 FBUs Pokalturnering. After the end of the season, the league winner would take part in the 1928 Provinsmesterskabsturneringen.
