Hasmonea Lwów

Hasmonea Lwów

Hasmonea Lwów was a Polish sports club based in the city of Lwów (now Lviv, Ukraine). Created in 1908, it was the first sports club exclusively for Jewish members. It was named after the Hasmonean royal dynasty.

In the interbellum the Hasmonea was one of four Lwów-based clubs playing in the Polish First League and arguably the most popular Jewish football club in Poland. In 1928 it was ranked 13th in the league and dropped to the second league. The most popular football player primarily associated with the club was Zygmunt Steuermann.

Also, Hasmonea was famous for its excellent table tennis players. In 1933 they were team champions of Poland, and its top player, Alojzy Ehrlich, was three times winner of silver in the World Championships (1936, 1937, 1939).
