Indonesia - List of (Semi-)Professional Champions

Until 1979 only an amateur championship (Perserikatan) was played. After the introduction of the semi-professional liGAsepakboLAuTAMA (Galatama), it ran in parallel. In 1994 the Perserikatan was merged with the Galatama to create the professional Liga Indonesia. The Galatama consisted of a single division (with the exception of the 1983 and 1990 seasons when two divisions were held). In contrast, the Liga Indonesia formed a league pyramid with up to four levels.

In the 2008 season the first level was renamed Liga Super Indonesia (LSI).

Between 2011 and 2013, two competing leagues existed, but only the LSI managed to complete each season professionally, in stark contrast to the LPI (which was officially sanctioned by the PSSI for the 2011/12 and 2013 seasons). The 2015 LSI was abandoned after the government forbade the PSSI to run any football competition. In 2016 a new league called Torabika Soccer Championship was started; it was not considered official but it marked the first time since 2010 that an undisputed top league was finished regularly. For 2017, the top level was renamed Liga 1 (whose participants corresponded to those of the 2016 Torabika Soccer Championship apart from some minor name changes).

NB: the Liga Sepakbola Utama (1979-1994) was a semi-professional,

      the Liga Indonesia (1994-2007) a professional league.

    Only the 4th and 13th edition of Galatama were decided by a championship

      final, all others by a double round-robin league system, which was first

      applied for the Liga Indonesia in 2003.

    In 2011, a rebel league (LPI, Liga Primer Indonesia) was formed, which was

      (under a new name: Liga Prima Indonesia) officially recognised by the PSSI

      at the start of the 2011/12 season; however, at the end of the 2013 season

      (in which the LPI did not manage to finish either the regular season nor

      the hastily set-up play-offs) the LPI was dissolved and its clubs were

      readmitted to the LSI - with only 4 LPI clubs allowed to enter the LSI

      top level (of 22 clubs) in 2014.  Therefore, we here consider the LSI as

      having continuously represented the Indonesian top level during the period,

      and the LPI as a rebel league (see below).

    between 1951-1994, the 35 editions of (semi-)professional leagues listed above, and

    the one completed edition of the LPI.  For the periods 1979-1994 and 2011-2013, this

    means two championships existed in parallel.  The 1973-75 championship is counted as

    a win for both Persija and PSMS.  The 13 editions of the championship organised by

    the P.S.S.I. between 1931 and 1943 are not counted, as the P.S.S.I. did not represent

    the country during the colonial era.

 

Indonesia - List of Second Level Champions

The Liga Indonesia was introduced in 1994/95; its second level is called Divisi Satu (division one). Previously, the Perserikatan (amateur championship) had a second level Divisi Satu from 1979 to 1993, and the Liga Sepakbola Utama (semi-professional) organised a second level on three occasions (1980, 1983 and 1990).

Between 2008 and 2014 the second level was called Divisi Utama; the 2015 season was discontinued soon after the start due to a ban on the PSSI by the sports minister; no official second level competition was played in 2016 (the Soccer Championship B held that year was not official); in 2017 it was resumed as Liga 2.

Perserikatan 1951-1994

After the V.U.V.S.I./I.S.N.I.S. disbanded in 1951 following the resurrection of the P.S.S.I. (by the transformation of the football department of the P.O.R.I. (PersatuanOlahraga Republik Indonesia), the Sports Federation of the Republic of Indonesia established by the republican government in 1947) in 1950, the P.S.S.I. has been the sole national football federation in Indonesia, establishing a new official all-Indonesian (amateur) championship, the Perserikatan, in 1951 and obtaining F.I.F.A. membership 1952.

The Perserikatan is a direct successor of the stedenwedstrijden held on Java during the colonial era.

Below, all names of teams and cities are written according to current spelling; prior to the spelling reform of 1972, teams were actually known as follows:

    already at the end of the forties.

 

NB: the city of Makassar was called Ujungpandang between 1971 and 1999; below it

      is listed as Makassar throughout;

    the city of Jayapura was known as Hollandia until 1962 and as Sukarnopura

Invitational Cup Tournaments

In the late eighties and early nineties, several tournaments were contested by the best amateur and professional teams. The tournament in 1985 was a friendly, invitational tournamen; the Piala Utama was entered by the top-4 teams from the Galatama and Perserikatan competitions (1990: top-4 Galatama 1990 and Perserikatan 1989/90; 1992: top-4 Galatama 1990/92 and Perserikatan 1991/92).
The PialaJeneral Sudirman, held in commemoration of the first Indonesian army commander, involved 15 (out of 18) top level clubs and bridged the time between the first edition of the PialaPresiden and the 2016 Torabika Soccer Championship, the first league competition after the government had forced the abandonment of the 2015 league.

Java Club Champions 1929-1941

On three occasions a tournament was organised between the club champions of the major cities on Java; the first two times in Soerabaja at the occasion of a jubilee of the S.V.B., with the champions of Bandoeng, Batavia, Semarang and Soerabaja entering, the last time in Batavia with the champions of Bandoeng, Batavia and Soerabaja. A tournament planned for the end of August 1935 in Semarang was cancelled. Before, the two competing federations on Java, the N.I.V.B. (affiliated to F.I.F.A.) and the W.J.V.F., had organised (both for the only time in their history) a club league, the N.I.V.B. with 23 clubs from 5 cities in eastern Java, the W.J.V.F. with 5 teams from 3 cities in western Java.

Batavia

On 28 September 1893, the Bataviasche Cricket-Football club "Rood-Wit" was founded in the capital and obtained legal recognition (by official approval of its statutes) in May 1894. The club is known to have played cricket matches later that year against the Bataviasche Cricket Club (in existence since the 1880s) but it is unclear to what extent football was played, and in which form (rugby or soccer). On December 26 (Boxing Day) of 1896, a football match was played between a Dutch and an English team at Gang Scott on the Koningsplein, the English winning 1-0 after the Dutch side had lost a player early on due to breaking his collarbone.
A number of other clubs were founded later in the nineties, such as N.V. (Nimmer Vermoeid), but by the turn of the century reportedly only one club existed in both Batavia (Trappers) and the garrison town Meester Cornelis (S.S.S.). In the first three years of the new century a host of new clubs were founded, including the later local heavyweights B.V.C., Oliveo (Onzeleus is voorwaartsenoverwinnen), Hercules and Vios (Voorwaarts is onsstreven, from Meester Cornelis). Together with Dokters Djawa (later Stovia), these four clubs entered the first ever league competition held in Batavia, organised by the newspaper Het nieuws van den dagvoorNederlandsch-Indië in 1904. It was succeeded by the competition for the Droogdokbeker, held since 1904/05 and from 1907 complemented by the Visserbeker which served as a second class feeder.
Initially, the B.V.B. (BataviaascheVoetbal Bond), founded on 20 July 1906, organised competitions, but it fell apart in March 1912 when four clubs (A.S.V.G., Oliveo, S.C.F. and Vios) left and founded the W.J.V.B. (West Java Voetbal Bond), which was joined by Velocitas and Voorwaarts in April 1912. After Hercules also joined the W.J.V.B. in 1913, the new federation had won the dispute and B.V.C. followed at the end of the year. In 1923, a separate federation for Meester Cornelis (MeesterscheVoetbal Bond) was founded, as part of the W.J.V.B., for local clubs too weak to enter the third class of the W.J.V.B. competitions. In August 1928, the W.J.V.B. was renamed V.B.O. (Voetbalbond Batavia enOmstreken).
Since (at least) the 1920 season, when U.M.S. played in the vierdeklasse, Chinese clubs entered the league; "native" clubs were part of the league structure since at least 1926, when B.V.V. played in the derdeklasse (ignoring the participation of Dokters Djawa/Stovia in the leagues between 1904 and 1912).
After the second World War, the V.B.O. was the last "European" city federation to disappear, merging into Persidja at the end of 1951.

NB: the site http://www.jakarta.go.id/jakv1/encyclopedia/detail/3461 claimed (as

    of 2011) championships for U.M.S. in the V.B.O. for the seasons 1930, 1932,

    1933, 1934, 1937, 1938, and 1949; however, U.M.S. only won the league once

    before World War II, in the 1932/33 season (in both 1933/34 and 1936/37 U.M.S.

    finished last and had to play off against relegation).  Most of the years

    mentioned apparently refer to titles won by reserve sides (e.g. in 1930

    U.M.S. II won the Tweede Klasse and in 1932 U.M.S. IV and U.M.S. V won their

    respective sections of the Vierde Klasse).

    The same page also astonishingly claims the V.B.O. changed name to Persija in

    1951 but that of course should refer to the V.I.J., or rather the Djakarta

    section of P.O.R.I., which was renamed Persidja on 24 Sep 1950 (considering

    itself as the successor of the pre-war V.I.J.); the V.B.O. was liquidated in

    1951, with its clubs joining Persidja.

Soerabaja

Victoria, the first reported football club of Soerabaja, was founded in September 1894 (according to other sources: 1895) by a pupil of the local H.B.S. (Hoogere Burger School), John Edgar; in 1896, a second club, Sparta, was founded and those two clubs played the first football match in Soerabaja in July 1896 (Victoria winning 6-1). Soon other clubs followed (among others, S.I.O.D., Rapiditas and E.C.A., with only the latter lasting more than a few years and indeed dominating local football, along with T.H.O.R., for about a decade) and in February 1897 a first local football federation (the first of its kind on Java and in the Dutch East Indies) was founded.
This apparently did not survive long as five clubs (including E.C.A. and T.H.O.R.) founded the O.J.V.B. (Oost-Java Voetbalbond) in August 1902; at the end of the same year, that organisation appears to have been renamed S.V.B., and by October 1903 it is known as the AlgemeeneNederlandschIndischeVoetbalbond.
Meanwhile, a championship in knock-out format (seriewedstrijden) was first organised in 1902, with T.H.O.R. defeating E.C.A. (who were considered 'champions' of Soerabaja in 1900, apparently by virtue of remaining undefeated in the regular 'friendly' matches organised locally) 1-0 in the final.
In 1903, E.C.A. won a championship contested by 3 clubs (E.C.A., T.H.O.R. and Voorwaarts), but the format of the competition is not entirely clear; the 1904/05 competition may have been the first league-style championship, but no league appears to have been played in the next two years.
At the beginning of 1907, a second O.J.V.B. (Oost Java Voetbal Bond) was founded, which organised a league in both 1907 and 1908 before, halfway its third league season, four of its seven Eerste Klasse clubs left and founded the S.V.B. (SoerabajascheVoetbal Bond) on 5 August 1909. Both the O.J.V.B. and the S.V.B. organised a league in 1909/10 before the former gave up; its two strongest members, E.C.A. and R.A., were both dissolved and most of their players joined newly formed Quick, who would dominate the S.V.B. league for the next five years. The 1910 league included a military side from Malang, Wilhelmina.
As early as 1908 a Chinese club, S.C.R.C. (Sourabaya Chinese Recreation Club) entered the O.J.V.B. Tweede Klasse, but the first Chinese club to play at the top level in Soerabaja was Tiong Hoa, who joined the S.V.B. in the 1918 season and were promoted as champions of the Tweede Klasse in 1921; at the end of the thirties, Gie Hoo followed them; both clubs provided players for the 1938 World Cup squad of the Dutch East Indies. Ambonese club Mena Moeria were admitted to the Eerste Klasse in 1930, and Selo, champions of the "native" federation S.I.V.B. in 1934/35, were admitted to the Eerste Klasse (by then the second level) in 1937 (P.S.H.W., as HizboelWathon champions of Persibaja 1939, followed them in 1941).
The S.V.B. was renamed S.V.B./P.S.S. (PersatoeanSepakragaSoerabaja) shortly after the start of the 1948/49 season before merging with Persibaja (or rather the Surabaja section of P.O.R.I.) and the S.K.V.B. (SoerabajascheKantoorVoetbal Bond) into Persibaja in the summer of 1950. While the choice of name may suggest that the "native" federation Persibaja absorbed the "European" S.V.B., in fact the 1950/51 top level competition of Persibaja consisted exclusively of clubs formerly with the S.V.B./P.S.S. (H.B.S., P.O.R.I.S. (who had already entered the S.V.B. league structure starting from the 1947/48 season), Tiong Hoa, Excelsior, P.O.M.M. (formerly Jong Ambon), Zeemacht (all in the 1949/50 S.V.B./P.S.S. Eerste Klasse), T.H.O.R. and Assjabaab (the top-2 of the 1949/50 S.V.B./P.S.S. Tweede Klasse)).

Bandoeng

The first known club from Bandoeng is B.V.C. (BandoengscheVoetbal Club), which was founded in 1900. Sidolig (Spelen in de open lucht is gezond, 1902) and U.N.I. (Uitspanning Na Inspanning, 1903), the two clubs to dominate football in the mountain city during the colonial era, followed soon after.
B.V.C. received their namesakes from Batavia on 3 April 1904 (Easter Sunday), losing 0-4 in (reportedly) the first ever venture by a Batavia club side out of town (as early as 1898, E.C.A. from Soerabaja and Go Ahead from Malang paid visits to each other, and S.V.V. from Semarang were hosted by Vitesse in Soerabaja in May 1899).
On 27 November 1904, following a friendly match between Sidolig and U.N.I., the PreangerVoetbalbond was founded by B.V.C., Sidolig and U.N.I., the first football federation in the city. It does not seem to have played a decisive part in the organisation of the various league competitions in the following years, played for a variety of trophies, including a vaandel offered by the company Hagelsteens and the Coorde-medaille. The latter was first played for in 1906 by five clubs, including two "native" ones, Osvia and Stovio. The 1909 competition for the Coorde-medaille is remarkable as second place was decided on goal difference (rather than goal average), the first known application (to the author) of this tie-breaker worldwide.
The B.V.B. (BandoengscheVoetbal Bond) was founded in spring 1913 by U.N.I., Sidolig, Roneo (a "native" club), M.B.V.C. (a military side) and D.O.S. (another military side, based in nearby Tjimahi), and started another league competition (involving those five clubs) in July 1913, but it considered 1914 its year of foundation, because of obtaining official government recognition on 11 July 1914.
In 1934, a rebel organisation led by U.N.I., the B.V.U. (BandoengscheVoetbalUnie) was formed, in parallel with (but unrelated to) the conflict within the N.I.V.B. (of which the B.V.U. never was a member); the B.V.B. and B.V.U. resolved their conflict in February 1935, after which the B.V.B.O. (BandoengscheVoetbal Bond enOmstreken) was formed, renamed V.B.B.O. (Voetbal Bond Bandoeng enOmstreken) in December 1935.
In 1918, "native" club Osvia entered the tweedeklasse (in 1921, they first appear at the top level since withdrawing from the 1909 league competition for the Coorde-medaille), while Chinese side Y.M.C. made their maiden appearance in the derdeklasse in 1921, gaining access to the top flight in 1927.
On 30 July 1950, the V.B.B.O. was renamed P.S.B.S. (PersatuanSepakraga Bandung dan Sekitarnja) but by the end of the year only four clubs (U.N.I., Sidolig, Chung Hua and Jong Ambon) had remained; these decided to liquidate the P.S.B.S. and join the "native" federation Persib.

Semarang

The first club in Semarang appears to have been Go Ahead, which was founded on 30 July 1898. It was to dominate local football for decades, along with S.V.V., founded one year later, and M.O.T. (Moed OverwintTegenstand, founded in 1904). A first league competition was held in 1906, for a cup offered by the SemarangscheVélo-Club (a cycling club), before, in August 1907, a first football federation was founded, the S.V.B. (SemarangscheVoetbal Bond); it organised its first league competition in the 1907/08 season.
However, in 1911 the S.V.B. was dissolved due to a cholera epidemy, which caused a police prohibition on the organisation of matches; this prohibition lasted more than a year and during this period, most member clubs failed to pay their membership fees. On 2 February 1912 five clubs (Go Ahead, S.V.V., M.O.T., T.H.O.S. and Union) formed a new federation, the V.S.O. (Voetbalbond Semarang enOmstreken).
For a decade and a half, from the 1926/27 season until World War II arrived in the Pacific, the league included clubs from Pekalongan; the Chinese club from there, T.H.H., won the league twice and the local Arab side Al Hilaäl once. The strongest Chinese club in Semarang, Union, a founder member of the V.S.O., first entered the top level league in 1916, and were Semarang champions once before the second World War.
The V.S.O. (which had been refounded 25 August 1946) was renamed V.S.O./P.S.S. (PerkoempoelanSepakraga Semarang) in September 1949 and then P.S.I.S. (PersatuanSepakbolah Indonesia Semarang) on 12 July 1950; the last name change (resurrecting the pre-war P.S.S.I. members from Semarang) involved a merger with P.O.R.I.S., the Semarang section of P.O.R.I., which had already entered teams in the 1949 noodcompetitie; their first side won the league in 1949/50.

Malang

Malang boasted the strongest city selection on Java outside of the "big four", in spite of only twice (1939 and 1940) qualifying for the final tournament of the stedenwedstrijden before the second World War, suffering elimination on goal average on no less than three occasions (1934, 1937 and 1938). The city was represented at the 1938 World Cup by 'keeper Mo Heng, who played for local champions H.C.T.N.H. at the time.
The first club founded in Malang was Go Ahead, in 1898, who went on to play E.C.A. of Soerabaja three times in that same year (twice in Malang and once in Soerabaja). They were followed by Voorwaarts in 1902, M.O.T. in 1904, and the first military club in the town, Wilhelmina, in 1909. Wilhelmina joined the Soerabaja federation, S.V.B., and entered its league and the Robertson Reid cup competition during the 1910 season.
The first Chinese clubs were Kam Soe Twie and Tjoe Kian Hwee, both founded in 1913, and Hak Sing Hwee, who dominated the league in the late twenties, in 1914; all were merged into H.C.T.N.H. 1930.
For such a small though fast-growing town (Malang had 43.000 inhabitants in 1920 and twice as many in 1930), the organisation of local football was perplexingly confusing. The M.V.B. (MalangscheVoetbal Bond) was founded on 7 August 1922 (an earlier federation with the same name had been founded in 1917 with four member clubs, including one Chinese one, organised a league in that same year (single round robin) and requested N.I.V.B. membership in May 1919, but succumbed soon after that). It affiliated to the N.I.V.B. in 1926 (in which year the first ever stadium in the Dutch East Indies was opened in Malang as well, on 2 August 1926) and outlasted two local rebel federations, both called Unitas Voetbal Bond (the first was founded and dissolved in 1926, the second lasted from 1928 to 1929), but was itself dissolved in 1933 and replaced by the V.M.O. (Voetbalbond Malang enOmstreken). One year later, three local clubs withdrew from the V.M.O. and formed the O.J.V.B. (Oost Java Voetbal Bond). All clubs were united again under the M.V.U. (MalangscheVoetbalUnie), founded 11 July 1935.
The M.V.U. (which had been refounded on 23 September 1948) was renamed M.V.U./P.S.M. by the end of 1949. The current Persema list 20 June 1953 as foundation date, but that appears to be incorrect as Persema are already mentioned in newspapers in August 1951 (and on multiple occasions in 1952, most importantly as participants of the 1952 Kejurnas P.S.S.I); presumably they came into being as a continuation of or new name for M.V.U./P.S.M.
The first "native" federation in Malang appears to have been founded in 1933 as P.S.I.M. (PersatoeanSepakbola Indonesia Malang); it was reportedly renamed P.S.T. (PersatoeanSepakbolaToemapel) in October 1934, but in 1937 reference is made to P.S.M., and since 1939 to Persim; presumably, these were all different acronyms for the same federation. Apart from Persim, a second "native" federation was founded in March 1940, Perspi, which proceeded to join the "European" M.V.U.

Oost-Sumatra (Medan)

The first verified mention of football in the archipelago originates from Medan. On 16 November 1887, the "Gymnastiek Vereeniging" was founded there, and apart from gymnastics, its members soon began to play cricket and football, later followed by tennis and athletics. As early as 1890, a team from Penang, apparently representing the Penang (Cricket) Club, crossed the Straits to play a cricket match (in the morning, Penang won) and a football game (in the afternoon, drawn).
There are two somewhat conflicting reports on this visit. An article entitled De voetballersnaar Penang, which appeared on 12 February 1904 in De Sumatra post (page 6) on the occasion of the first ever trip of a Deli football team to Penang (see below), singled out a Dutch back called Verhulst, whose defending saved the (apparently goalless) draw, but who died soon afterwards. On the English side, the meeting was recalled in an article entitled Deli in Sumatra. Notes of a Holiday Visit by an Idle Official. in the November 1893 issue of the Fortnightly Review, written by R.W. Egerton Eastwick and cited at considerable length on page 2 of the 28 November 1893 issue of The Singapore Free Press and Mercantile Advertiser. Its author speaks highly of a "Dutchman, who had never seen cricket before", who suffered a violent attack of fever, months after the match, and was sent to Penang by his doctors, only to die there shortly afterwards. This can only refer to Ch.H. Verhulst, a structural engineer (he passed his exam as bouwkundigingenieur in June 1885 in Delft), employed by the Deli-Maatschappij since (at the latest) February 1887, whose death in Penang was reported in various papers in both the Netherlands and the Dutch East Indies at the end of August 1890, 26 years of age. However, Egerton Eastwick's narratory claims two football matches were played, both won by Penang (by 7-0 and 4-2 no less). It would seem to be impossible to decide on the actual result, but the statement that the Dutchman in question had never seen cricket before is certainly incorrect: cricket was quite a popular game with Dutch students in Holland and Verhulst had captained the H.C.C. (Haagsche Cricket Club) side which won the national cricket matches held at the Malieveld in The Hague in August 1885.

After the foundation of the Deli Wielrijders Club (a cycling club) in 1893, football activities within the Gymnastiek Vereeniging ceased, and little football was played in Medan until the foundation of the Sport Club Sumatra's Oostkust (better known as S.O.K. or simply Sportclub) on 1 June 1899, as recalled in another article in De Sumatra post (on 31 May 1904, page 6: Het 5-jarig bestaan der Sportclub "Sumatra's Oostkust"), which also mentions the draw against Penang.
One of S.O.K.'s early members was W.J.H. "Pim" Mulier, a Dutch football pioneer, who was appointed editor of the newspaper Deli Courant in 1899 and lived in Medan until 1905. In January 1900, the club was granted the use of the Esplanade in Medan; the first match took place on 1 February 1900, when the Sportclub, with Mulier as centre forward, defeated a Langkat English XI 2-0 in Medan after having lost a cricket match earlier that day. Frequent encounters between teams from Medan (usually represented by S.O.K.) and Bindjey (usually represented by Langkat S.C.) followed that first match. On 6 October 1901, S.O.K. hosted a visiting team from Penang, losing 1-4, and in February 1904, a Deli side first visited Penang, losing 2-3 and 1-5 (Penang having been reinforced by a few Perak and Singapore players in the second match).

In 1902, two "native" teams (Zetters Club (also known as Letterzetters) in Medan and Toengkoe V.C. in Bindjey) were formed; these played each other as well as the "European" clubs in friendly matches. In 1905, a Chinese club (Tiong Hoa) followed and several other clubs (including Voorwaarts, as a merger of S.O.K. and its 1904 split-off D.S.C.; in 1911 Voorwaarts merged into D.S.V.) were formed a year later.
A first federation, the D.V.B. (DelischeVoetbal Bond) was founded on 16 July 1907 and organised the first regular league with a three-team Eerste Klasse consisting of Voorwaarts ("European"), Maimoen S.C. ("native") and Chinese S.C. In addition, a Tweede Klasse involving seven teams was held. The D.V.B. disappeared after the 1908 season; the leagues in 1910 and 1912 were organised by an ad hoc committee (called DelischeVoetbal-competitie) before the omnisports club D.S.V. took over the running of the league with the 1913 edition, adding a separate section for "native" clubs.
The D.S.V. organised local football until the end of the 1915 season, in which the championship included clubs from outside Medan and its immediate surroundings for the first time.
In December 1915, the O.S.V.B. (Oost Sumatra Voetbal Bond) was founded; it was also based in Medan but extended competition to other parts of the Oostkust van Sumatra, most notably Simeloengoen (with main towns (Pematang) Siantar and Tebing Tinggi) and Asahan (with main towns TandjongBalei and Kisaran). In some seasons, a playoff between the champions of the different regional leagues was organised; in other seasons only the league in Medan (and surroundings) was played and its winners considered overall champions.
In October 1920, a "native" football federation, the Deli Voetbal Bond, was founded; it organised league competitions for about half a decade (won by SoekaMadjoe in the first season, 1920/21), but after the O.S.V.B. started including "native" clubs in its league structure from 1922 on, the D.V.B. slowly disappeared (it is last mentioned in 1925).
The O.S.V.B. was renamed V.B.M.O./P.S.M.S. (Voetbal Bond Medan enOmstreken/PersatuanSepakraga Medan dan Sekililingnja) in November 1949 and entered the stedenwedstrijden under that name in 1950 (the last edition organised by V.U.V.S.I./I.S.N.I.S.), finishing fifth. However, the current P.S.M.S. (PersatuanSepakbola Medan dan Sekitarnya) retains 21 April 1950 (a week before their first match in those stedenwedstrijden) as its foundation date rather than 1 December 1915 (when the original O.S.V.B. was founded, about three months before the foundation of the P.S.M. (as M.V.B.) in Makassar).

Makassar

The MakassaarscheVoetbalbond (M.V.B.) was founded on 27 February 1916, after the completion of a first league competition which had started in November 1915, and was an associate member of the N.I.V.B. since at least 1929. There were relatively frequent visits from Soerabaja club sides to the Stad der roodevischjes, and Makassar selections toured the Krokodillenstad in 1921, 1933 and 1941.
Exceptionally among the major cities of the colony, it appears the local football federation did not suffer any schisms (although Excelsior withdrew from the federation in 1937, but soon returned, winning the league in 1938) and continues to thrive, as P.S.M., in independent Indonesia (making them the oldest existing city federation in the country (although P.S.M.S. could contest that should they want to), having celebrated their centenary).
The local league was contested by "European", Chinese and "native" clubs, with all communities earning championship honours.
The federation of Makassar twice entered (as M.V.B./P.S.M.) the stedenwedstrijden, in 1949 and 1950 (the last two editions organised by V.U.V.S.I./I.S.N.I.S.), finishing fourth in both seasons. Chinese club side Excelsior entered the 1950 edition of the H.N.V.B. event.

City Competitions (Stedenwedstrijden) 1914-1950

Note all competitions in this section were restricted to Java (with the exception of the 1949 and 1950 tournaments organised by V.U.V.S.I./I.S.N.I.S., in which Makassar and Medan entered, and the 1950 edition of the H.N.V.B. tournament in which Excelsior represented Makassar). However, similar competitions were organised in other parts of the Dutch East Indies occasionally, in particular on Sumatra (by the O.S.V.B. for Oost-Sumatra and the M.V.B. for West-Sumatra).

N.I.V.B./N.I.V.U./V.U.V.S.I. | C.K.T.H./H.N.V.B. (Chinese) | P.S.S.I. ("native")

N.I.V.B./N.I.V.U./V.U.V.S.I. Stedenwedstrijden

This was the highlight of the Javanese football season; the winners of the annual stedenwedstrijden were considered the champions of Java (and, by extension, of the colony). The Perserikatan (amateur championship) organised by the P.S.S.I. between 1951 and 1994 in independent Indonesia was a direct successor of this tournament.

It was first held in 1914 at the occasion of the KolonialeTentoonstelling in Semarang, with winners Batavia earning the silver Koloniale-Tentoonstellings-Beker. Originally, a set-up had been discussed in which club teams would contest the championship of Java. To this end, the champion clubs of Batavia, Soerabaja, Bandoeng and Semarang were to be determined in local competitions, and then contest the overall title in Semarang. At the occasion of the final of the 1913 Globe Bioscope knock-out tournament in Batavia, on May 1st, a golden ball was put on offer by Loa Soen Yang of the Globe cinema for the winners of this "Globe-bioscope-Javakampioenschap". However, by April 1914 this idea had been replaced by that of a tournament between representative selections of the four city federations involved. In addition, two Singapore selections, a civilian and a military one, were to be invited to play a representative team of Java, formed at the tournament, in October and November, still at the Semarang exposition. These would have been the first international matches for any all-Java team, but due to the outbreak of the first World War, Singapore could not send any team.

On the initiative of Batavia captain Stom, the trophy, which had colloquially been renamed Java-Cup, was played for again in the next year, with Batavia hosting the tournament. Batavia won the tournament again, but the cup was stolen in the night after the final. A new trophy was donated by a Soerabaja football fan, Monod de Froideville, first played for in 1916 in Soerabaja. The hosts won and repeated their win in 1917 in Semarang (original hosts Bandoeng having requested a postponement of their hosting right by one year). Thanks to their second win in succession, Soerabaja won the Monod-Beker to keep. Bandoeng sportsman Ernst de Vries then donated a trophy for the 1918 edition in the mountain city, the De Vries-Beker, which was to be kept outright by the first city to win the tournament five times in total or three times in succession, with Batavia fulfilling the latter condition in 1920. At most of the later editions, no cup trophy was at stake anymore, the winning team obtaining a GoudenKampioens-Medaille (golden championship medal) as well as eleven medals for the players.

Starting with the 1920 edition, the organisation was taken over by the N.I.V.B. (later N.I.V.U.), formed in 1919. After the first two editions, both held in the summer, the final tournament normally took place in the Pentecost weekend (pinksteren). Exceptions to that rule were the tournaments of 1919 (held in the Easter weekend) and 1938 (when the tournament was moved to the end of August due to the World Cup participation of the Dutch East Indies).
Starting from the 1936 (1935/36) edition, the top-3 finishers of the previous edition qualified automatically for the final tournament in the following season, whereas the bottom team had to play off for the final spot against the two winners of the qualifying competition for West and East Java. Also, starting from the 1936 edition the N.I.V.U.-Schild was at stake, kept outright by Batavia following their second successive win in 1939.

The 1941/42 edition was abandoned due to the outbreak of World War II in the Pacific. After the war, the N.I.V.U. was re-established on 29 December 1946, and organised two Stedentoernooien in 1947 and 1948 before changing name to V.U.V.S.I./I.S.N.I.S. (VoetbalUnie in de Verenigde Staten van Indonesië/IkatanSepakraga Negara Indonesia Serikat) in October 1948. Under that name, the last two competitions in 1949 and 1950 (the first to involve teams from outside Java, Makassar and Medan) were played.

After the P.S.S.I. was resurrected in 1950 (by the transformation of the football department of the P.O.R.I. (PersatuanOlahraga Republik Indonesia), the Sports Federation of the Republic of Indonesia established by the republican government in 1947), member associations of the V.U.V.S.I./I.S.N.I.S. merged with their local P.S.S.I. counterparts and V.U.V.S.I./I.S.N.I.S. disbanded in 1951.

ChineescheStedenwedstrijden

Note that the Chinese city tournaments usually involved the leading Chinese clubs from the respective cities, in particular Tiong Hoa (now Suryanaga) from Soerabaja and U.M.S. from Batavia. The final tournament normally took place in the Easter weekend. The first edition was held in 1917; it was played for various trophies offered by private sponsors until the C.K.T.H. (ComitéKampioenswedstrijden Tiong Hoa) was founded in 1927 to organise the matches; it was succeeded by the H.N.V.B. in 1930. The H.N.V.B. was dissolved during Japanese occupation but refounded on 4 September 1948.

NB: Semarang-based newspaper De Locomotief had intended to donate a cup to the winners,

    but as the N.I.V.B. had decided on 22 May 1920 not to play for any more cups donated

    by whomsoever, but only for the GoudenKampioens-medaille for the winning team as

    well as eleven golden medals for its players, all awarded by the N.I.V.B., the cup

    was not bought but instead its value (300 guilders) donated by the newspaper to the

organising committee.

Bandoeng         0-3 Batavia

 

NB: in October 1931, the S.V.B. had withdrawn the press cards for the Chinese

    newspapers Sin Tit Po and PewartaSoerabaia following match reports in those

    newspapers deemed defamatory and insulting by the S.V.B. board; after a request

    by the S.V.B., the N.I.V.B. decided on 28 March 1932 to extend this measure to

    the kampioenswedstrijden; the editor-in-chief of the Sin Tit Po, Liem Koen Hian,

    then started a boycot movement (Comité van Actie PersatoeanBangsa Asia) aimed

    at dissuading Chinese and "natives" to attend the matches (partially by organising

    simultaneous matches elsewhere in Soerabaja) and pressurising Chinese and "native"

    players not to represent their cities; this had a particularly unfortunate effect

    on the Blitar side making its maiden appearance, as it had to replace more than

    half of the regular first eleven.

NB: Batavia opposed the new set-up and withdrew from the competition;

    the V.B.O. was then suspended by the N.I.V.B. on an extraordinary

    general meeting in Bandoeng on December 23, 1933.  Batavia then

organised an alternative tournament in which Soekaboemi (which

    had meanwhile resigned from the N.I.V.B.) and a rebel federation

    (B.V.U.) from Bandoeng entered.  Eventually, in the summer of 1935

    the N.I.V.B. was liquidated and succeeded by the N.I.V.U. as the

    official football association on Java.

NB: the above matches were organised by the N.I.V.B., which had scheduled the final

    tournament in 1935 for Solo (it would have been Batavia's turn, but the V.B.O.

    had left the N.I.V.B.);

    more matches may have been played but the tournament was cancelled, as more and

    more city federations left the N.I.V.B.: both Bandoeng and Buitenzorg did so in

    the beginning of 1935 and by spring 1935 the N.I.V.B. only consisted of Soerabaja,

    Malang, Blitar, Djokjakarta, Solo and Tegal.

    The V.B.O. then invited the federations of Bandoeng and Semarang as well as

Soerabaja club side Tiong Hoa, who had left the S.V.B., to participate in a

    tournament in Batavia between the traditional four cities.  On May 12, the S.V.U.

    (SoerabaiascheVoetbalUnie) was founded in Soerabaja to organise a team for the

    final tournament and join the N.I.V.U. to be founded there.  In the match on May 4,

Soerabaja was represented by Tiong Hoa, by far the strongest club among the

    founding members of the S.V.U.

Malang           n/p Tegal           

 

NB: Tegal withdrew for financial reasons (viz. the costs for the trip to the

    final tournament in Djokjakarta); the result of the match on Nov 6 was

    thus annulled; Cheribon then requested that the result of the match

    between Malang and Djokjakarta would also be annulled, in order to

    "restore equal chances"; the N.I.V.U. of course refused this, upon which

Cheribon also withdrew, resenting the "preferential treatment" of Malang;

    the N.I.V.U. then decided to organise a second leg between the two

    remaining cities.

Final Tournament

 

NB: tournament in Semarang; organised by P.S.S.I. (following reformation of P.O.R.I.);

    the P.S.S.I. (PersatuanSepakbolaSeluruh Indonesia) was officially (re)formed on

    2 Sep 1950 under the stipulation that the organisation was not a continuation of

    the pre-war P.S.S.I. but coincidentally shared its name.

    P.O.R.I. had originally intended to include P.S.M. (Makassar) and P.S.M.S. (Medan)

    as participants (announced mid-July) but this did not materialise.

 

Original schedule (as announced on Aug 30)

 

[Sep 2]

P.S.I.S.          -  Persidja

[Sep 3]

Persibaja         -  Persidja

[Sep 4]

P.S.I.S.          -  Persibaja

 

However, Persib showed up with a team insisting they were Djawa Barat champions and the

P.S.S.I. decided to change the set-up to knock-out (apparently scheduling Persib to

play Persibaja on the final day even before the match on Sep 3 was played).

The Gouverneur van Suchtelenbeker was a silver cup made in Djokjakarta and offered to the O.S.V.B. (Oost Sumatra Voetbal Bond) by the new governor of the Oostkust van Sumatra in November 1933. Inspired by the popular stedenwedstrijden on Java, the O.S.V.B. offered it to the winners of a competition of city selections, which was organised on five occasions before World War II.

Dutch New Guinea - Football History

Introduction - Football in the Dutch New Guinea

When the Dutch East Indies became independent as Indonesia in 1949, the Netherlands kept the western part of New Guinea, which remained a Dutch colony until 1962. It was to obtain full independence by 1971, but following Indonesian mobilisation and pressure from the US administration under Kennedy, the Netherlands handed over the territory to UN administration in October 1962, which in turn handed the area to Indonesia in May 1963. A plebiscite was organised in 1969, which resulted in a 100% vote for continued Indonesian rule over what is now called Irian Jaya, while the eastern half of the island (ruled by Australia at the time) is now independent as Papua New Guinea.

During Dutch rule, football was only played at local level, in particular in and around the capital Hollandia, founded in 1910 and currently (since the centenary celebrations in 2010) officially called Port Numbay after temporary name changes to Sukarnopura (1963-1968) and Jayapura (1968-2010; this name is still widely used).
Hollandia was home to two football associations, both organising their own competitions, namely the V.H.O. (Voetbalbond Hollandia enOmstreken, founded in 1950), which initially was restricted to Europeans and their descendants, and the V.B.H. (Voetbal Bond Hollandia, founded in 1949), in which the local population had a place (in later years, Papua's also gained access to the V.H.O.). Since the 1959 season, the top-3 of both federations played off for the city title, until the two federations merged to form a unified top level (E.D.H., Ere Divisie Hollandia) in the 1962 season.

Occasionally matches between selections from Hollandia and Biak were organised, as well as matches with representative sides from Port Moresby, the capital of the eastern half of the island, then under Australian rule.

In July 1959, the Voetbalbond Merauke started a qualifying competition between 14 clubs to decide 7 entrants in the inaugural eersteklasse. No further data are available. In addition, a federation existed in Fakfak (Voetbalbond Fakfak); as early as January 19th, 1935, a local club named Fakfak had played a team from Flores, a visiting ship, winning 4-1. However, no further details are known. In May 1936, the Doreh-voetbalclub was founded in Manokwari, then the centre of football activities on Dutch New Guinea, where 6 clubs played in the 1937/38 league organised by the local football federation, won by Leeuwenhart.
