BuEV Danzig was a German sports club formed in 1903, from the city of Danzig, West Prussia (today Gdańsk, Poland).

The city's first football side, Fußball Club Danzig was established on April 18, 1903, and by 1905 was playing as Ballspiel- und Eislauf-Verein Danzig to reflect the club's interest in both football and ice skating.

BuEV began to play ice hockey at the Caffe Ludwig in 1911, where there was artificial ice in place. They competed in the local Danzig City Championship.

Between 1916 and 1930 the association was called Verein für Leibesübungen Danzig before again playing as BuEV.

The club disappeared with the end of World War II when the city of Danzig and surrounding territory became part of Poland.
