The Allied forces occupying the region dissolved all civic clubs and initially only allowed the formation of local sports groups. The teams were thus organized to represent their individual borough (section of Berlin). SG Berlin-Eichkamp consisted of primarily former Berliner SC players.
Northwestern Championship
A northwestern championship was supposed to be organized between Berlin and the Western teams from Dusseldorf and Krefeld. However, Krefelder EV, winner of the 1946 Bizone Championship, considered itself to be the legitimate German champion, and refused to participate in the event. SG Berlin-Eichkamp qualified directly for the final as a result.
