Surinam - Nationale Feesten Football Events 1910-1951


Before a football federation was founded in Surinam (first in April 1914, for a period of three years, and for the second time in October 1920), football competitions were organised by the Vereeniging van Nationale Feesten around the birthday (August 31st) of Koningin Wilhelmina, on four or five occasions in the second decade of the twentieth century, starting in 1911. One year earlier, a match had been organised between the strongest local club, military side Juliana (named after the infant princess, born in 1909) and a visiting ship, HM "Utrecht". In 1921, the football event at the occasion of the Queen's Birthday was an international match (the first ever for the new S.V.B.) against British Guiana; already in August 1915, a selection from the colony's capital Georgetown had visited Paramaribo and played a selection of the first S.V.B. (1914-1917) as well as leading club side Juliana.

Also in later years football matches were a popular part of the festivities surrounding the Queen's Birthday in Paramaribo. Both the S.V.B. and the rival catholic federation (K.V.B., since 1930 N.G.V.B.) tried to attract the football loving public with international matches, usually involving sides from British Guiana (often announced as Demerara), sometimes also from the Dutch Caribbean colonies of Aruba and Curaçao.

Visits from British Guiana football teams 1921-1950

The following events all involved visiting sides from Georgetown, British Guiana. At all events from 1924 until 1938, they came as guests of the catholic football federation, the K.V.B. (renamed N.G.V.B. in 1930), set up to rival the S.V.B. (F.I.F.A. members for the territory since 1929). The N.G.V.B. was dissolved during World War II; in 1945 and 1947 the B.G.F.A. visited Paramaribo as guests of the S.V.B. Following controversy after the final match for the Brown Betty Cup in 1947, at which the visitors were allegedly stoned, and the renewed foundation of the N.G.V.B. in July of that year, the B.G.F.A. once more showed up as guests of the catholic federation in 1948.

NB: Excelsior (and its sister club Juliana) withdrew from the competition
    in protest to the procedure followed by the protest committee around
    the match on Aug 29; no decision on the protest of Blauw-Wit had yet
    been taken at the time of their withdrawal.

Final [Sep 5]               
Blauw-Wit       0-0 Olympia         [aet]

NB: both clubs declined to have first prize settled by the drawing of lots,
    as foreseen by the regulations; on the suggestion of Blauw-Wit, the
    organisation committee then awarded first prize to Olympia, but they
    later refused to accept it as a gift by their opponents; Olympia had
    first been under the impression to have received it because of their
    better overall record.
