Biography
Formation
Football Club Viktoria Plzeň was established in 1911 when Jaroslav Ausobský, an official of the state railways, filed a request to form a new football club in Plzeň. The club played its first match in August 1911, facing Olympia Plzeň and losing 7–3. Initially, Viktoria Plzeň operated as an amateur club for the first 18 years, but in the 1922-23 season, they embarked on their first foreign tour to Spain, achieving notable success by winning six out of nine matches.
Professional Era
In June 1929, Viktoria Plzeň transitioned to a professional club and entered the national professional league. Their inaugural season saw them finish in seventh place, but they quickly improved, achieving second place in the following season, which marked their first promotion to the Czech First League. The club gained recognition in European football after competing in the 1935 Mitropa Cup against Juventus, drawing 3–3 at home but losing 5–1 in Turin. Despite facing relegation in 1938, they returned to the top league the following year, maintaining a presence in the top division until 1952, when they briefly changed their name to Sokol Škoda Plzeň.
Achievements and Legacy
Viktoria Plzeň has enjoyed significant success in domestic competitions, winning the Czech First League six times, with their most recent title in the 2021-22 season. They have also claimed the Czech Cup once and the Czech Supercup twice. The club's consistent performance has solidified its status as a prominent force in Czech football, with a total of 27 seasons spent in the top tier of the league system, showcasing their resilience and competitive spirit throughout their history.

Early history
In 1911, Jaroslav Ausobský, an official of the state railways, filed a request for the establishment of a new football club in Plzeň. In August 1911, the newly formed club Viktoria played their first match, losing 7–3 against Olympia Plzeň. For the first 18 years of its existence, Viktoria Plzeň was a purely amateur club, although in 1922–23, they took their first foreign trip to Spain, where they won six out of nine matches. In June 1929, an extraordinary meeting of members agreed to go professional and enter the national professional league. Viktoria finished their first season in seventh place, but the very next season, improved and reached second place, which meant a first-ever promotion to the First League. In the 1934–35 Czechoslovak First League, Viktoria finished in fourth place and subsequently played in the 1935 Mitropa Cup, the top European club competition at the time. Two matches against Juventus brought Viktoria to the attention of European football at large. They drew 3–3 at home but lost 5–1 in Turin. Viktoria played without success in the First League, being relegated for the 1938 season but returning to top competition the next year. The outbreak of World War II interrupted competition, notably through the absence of teams from Slovakia. In 1942, Viktoria fell again into the divisions, but again returned to the top league the next year, where they would remain until 1952. That same year, the club changed its name to Sokol Škoda Plzeň.…
