FC Avanti was a football club located in the lakeside town of Buochs in Canton Nidwalden Switzerland. The club first started with the Name "FC Avanti" after World War I (1918–1919 estimated) but did not have the status of a proper football club. It was created by some football loving chaps after the First World War, however disappeared around 1924 to be replaced by the current team named SC Buochs in 1934 (officially).
In 1933 the first attempt was made to establish SC Buochs but it failed due to only nine people turning up which was insufficient to inaugurate the club. However, on 21 September 1934, thirteen 'Friends of Football' met up to commence this new football Club, SC Buochs.
SC Buochs was initially an athletics club with the "SC" meaning sport club in German. SC Buochs started off in the lowest league in Switzerland called the "Serie C" playing against a small pool of amateur sides at first. As World War II started in 1939 the football was put to a standstill until 1941. A great number of the clubs did not have an actual football field during this time as many were used for the cultivation of field crops, subsequently resulting in clubs like Hergiswil using Buochs's facilities. This also resulted in these clubs having to withdraw which earned Buochs a promotion without actually being promoted to the 3 Liga.
"Buochs 1" refers to SC Buochs first squad that currently play in the 2 Liga Interregional which is one of the many fourth tiers in Swiss football. There have been a few exceptional players who have played for this 'petty' club in the 'heart of Switzerland', including Reto Zanni,(currently playing for FC Basel), Selver Hodžić (who played in the champions league later with FC Thun) and Ryszard Komornicki (who played with Poland in the 1986 World Cup).
