Favoritner AC

The club was founded in 1910 as the football section of the bowling club Kegelklub Favorit as Favorit Athletic Club. On 21 December 1910 the club was admitted to a meeting of the Austrian Football Association and assigned to the Vienna Second Division. Before that, the club was already entered into the register of associations on 1 August 1910, under the name Favoritner Athletics Sports Club, or Favoritner ASC for short. After a few years in 2nd Division and a temporary spell in the league of the labour movement, the VAFÖ (Vereinigung der Amateur-Fußballvereine Österreichs), Favoritner AC played in the years 1936 to 1938 for the first time in the highest Austrian league. After the relegation in 1938, the top flight could only be achieved between 1983 and 1985. However these two seasons brought the FavAC a great popularity in Vienna. During the course of the 1990s, the club competed several times in the second league, ending in 4th place in the 1992/93 season and 6th in the 1996/96 season. Then in the early 2000s the club fell all the way down to the fifth tier of Austrian football.

Since 2010/11 the club plays in Wiener Stadtliga, the fourth-highest tier.
