Description

Organized football in Novo Mesto began with the establishment of Elan Sports Club in 1922. Alongside football, the association developed a variety of sports, such as athletics, tennis, swimming, Czech handball, and so on. Before it could hold their first official football match, the club needed to create conditions necessary for the operations of the football section, purchase sports gear, and adapt the stadium at Loka to host football matches. Football was most popular among highschoolers and students. In the first years, they mostly played friendly matches with clubs from Ljubljana, and between the end of the 1920s and mid-1930s, they competed in the second division of the Ljubljana Sub-Association League. As the costs became increasingly burdensome, the team decided to leave the competition system. Elan Sports Club also organized sports days to popularize sporting activities in the city, and in the Sokol cultural centre hosted cultural and entertainment events that enriched the city’s social life.

      • Organizirano igranje nogometa v Novem mestu se je začelo leta 1922, ko je bil ustanovljen Sportni klub Elan. Razvijal je več športnih panog, poleg nogometa še atletiko, tenis, plavanje, hazeno itd. Preden so lahko odigrali prvo uradno nogometno tekmo, so morali ustvariti pogoje za delovanje nogometne sekcije, nabaviti športno opremo in stadion na Loki prilagoditi za nogometne tekme. Nogomet je bil najpopularnejši med srednješolsko mladino in študenti. V prvih letih so igrali večinoma prijateljske tekme s klubi iz Ljubljane, od konca dvajsetih do sredine tridesetih let pa so tekmovali v drugem rangu Ljubljanskega nogometnega podsaveza. Ker je bilo tovrstno udejstvovanje vedno dražje, so iz tekmovalnega sistema izstopili. Sportni klub Elan je organiziral tudi širše zasnovane športne dneve, s katerimi je skrbel za popularizacijo športa v mestu, in kulturno zabavne prireditve, ki so v Sokolskem domu popestrile družabni utrip meščanov.
