Overview

edit

It was contested by 5 teams. Boldklubben Frem, the workers' club from the Copenhagen district Valby, won the DBU championship for the first time by overcoming defending champions and local rivals Boldklubben af 1893.[1] The winning side included Stefan Rasmussen, Axel Andersen Byrval, and Louis Østrup, as well as the brothers Otto and Victor Andersen, who later changed their surname to Vilager. Since Copenhagen now had two decent pitches, this season, the 1901–02 season was thus the first one with two league matches played simultaneously.[1]
