'''Boldklubben Frem''' (also known as '''Frem''', '''BK Frem''' or '''BK Frem Copenhagen''') is a Danish [[sports club]] based in the [[Valby]]-[[Sydhavnen]] area of [[Copenhagen]]. It is best known for its [[semi-professional]] [[association football|football]] [[team]] and its youth academy. Since its foundation in 1886, Frem has won the [[Danish Superliga#Danish champions 1913-2005|Danish Championships]] six times and the [[Danish Cup]] twice. Until the disastrous bankruptcy in 1993, Frem had played in the top division all but six seasons. After the bankruptcy the club fought its way back to the top of Danish football, but in 2010 it went bankrupt again and was demoted to the [[Copenhagen Series]]—the fifth tier in the Danish league system. After two back to back promotions, the club now participates in the Danish 2nd Division, the third tier.

The club also has a youth and amateur football branch, as well as a [[cricket]] team. It is also involved in the running of the KIES sports boarding school.

===Early years===
[[Image:Frem 1901-1902.jpg|thumb|right|Frem's squad of the 1901–1902 Copenhagen Championship-winning season. The player at the very centre is [[Axel Byrval]].]]
BK Frem were founded as '''Fremskridtsklubbens Cricketklub''' on 17 July 1886 by a group of seditious young men from the then [[Jacob Brønnum Scavenius Estrup|government]] hostile [[Venstre (Denmark)|Venstre Reform Party]], as a cloak for political activities.<ref>Following an assassination attempt on [[Prime Minister of Denmark|Council President]] [[Estrup]] in the fall of 1885 restrictions on [[Freedom (political)|political freedom]] had been initiated. {{cite encyclopedia

In the first two years of the life of the club, only two sports matches were played, but when the [[Danish Football Association]] introduced a football tournament in 1889, the club was invited to participate, and in 1890 Frem became the first Danish club to beat [[Kjøbenhavns Boldklub|KB]] in a football match. In 1902 Frem became unofficial Danish champions when they won the league played under the auspices of the [[Danish FA]]. This was the first ever senior title won by the club.

In 1905, the club moved to its own field at Enghavevej, [[Vesterbro, Copenhagen|Vesterbro]], obtaining its distinct working class profile. To this day, both the [[Danish Social Democrats|Social Democrats]] and the [[Danish Union of Metalworkers|Union of Metalworkers]] holds Frem sponsorships. In 1912, Frem joined the representative team [[Stævnet]] which arranged lucrative exhibition matches and played a decisive role in Danish football politics.

===Palmy days===
In the years 1923–1944, Frem won six [[Danish football champions|Danish Championships]].

===Division Yo-Yoing===
Since 1983 Frem had been battling economically, and in 1993 saw themselves demoted to the [[Football in Denmark#League system|Danmarksserien]] following a bankruptcy, which was due to a [[debt]] of [[Danish krone|DKK]] 8,500,000 and allegations of fraud.<ref>Dennis Drejer: ''Tilbage til FREM-tiden'', ''[[Berlingske Tidende]]'', 12 November 1995, pp. 24,</ref>

Following a short but expensive spell in the [[Danish Superliga|Superliga]] in [[2003–04 Danish Superliga|2003–2004]], Frem were once again on the verge of bankruptcy with a debt of DKK 10,000,000.<ref>Andreas Kraul: 'Fodbold: Frem kører videre', ''[[Politiken|Dagbladet Politiken]]'', 15 December 2004, section 2, pp. 10,</ref>

In 2010, after years of uncertain economy, the club once again went bankrupt and was demoted to the [[Copenhagen Series]].<ref>Hans-Henrik Hare: 'Så er det slut: Frem konkurs!', ''[[Ekstra Bladet]]'', 28 June 2010</ref>

==Supporters==
Frem's official supportergroup is called "BK Frem Support". It is Denmark's oldest supporters club, formed in 1986.
Frem fans are especially known for unconditional love and support. Even when demoted to the fifth tier, attendances almost didn't drop.

==Home ground==
[[Image:Frem clubhouse 1905-1942.jpg|thumb|right|The clubhouse at Enghavevej, [[Vesterbro, Copenhagen|Vesterbro]] used 1905–1942.]]
Frem play their home matches at the modest and somewhat worn-down, municipality-owned [[Valby Idrætspark]].

In the early years, Frem were located on [[Østerbro]] in Copenhagen, playing its matches at [[Fælledparken|Blegdamsfælleden]], alongside its main rivals in the early years; [[Akademisk Boldklub|AB]] and [[Kjøbenhavns Boldklub|KB]]. In 1905 Frem moved to its own field at Enghavevej, [[Vesterbro, Copenhagen|Vesterbro]]. Being a field-owning club gave Frem the advantage of entry fees. Its location however lead to some muttering from football fans who found it to be too far out of town.<ref>{{cite web

In 1942, Frem moved to Valby Idrætspark, where the current main stand was erected in 1965. Throughout the years a lot of matches has been played at [[Idrætsparken]]. It is unclear when this tradition was discontinued.

During the 2000s, there were several plans for a [[New Valby Idrætspark|new stadium]], but they were never realized.<ref>{{cite web |title=Valby Vision |url=http://www.bt.dk/sport/visionen-om-costa-del-valby |work=BT.dk|date=14 February 2004 |language=da}}</ref>

In [[2006 in football (soccer)|2006]] the [[Copenhagen Municipality]] predicted that the main stand of the current Valby Idrætspark would last another 5–10 years.<ref>{{cite journal

==Sponsorships==
After the clubs bankruptcy in summer 2010, Frem got a helping hand from Danish brewery giant [[Carlsberg Group|Carlsberg]]. Being from the same city they signed on as main sponsor, because they saw it as a chance to help the fellow [[Valby]]-based brand back on its feet.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.carlsbergdanmark.dk/Presse/Nyheder/Pages/CarlsbergnyhovedsponsorforFrem.aspx|title=Carlsberg new main sponsor at Frem|language=da|work=carlsbergdanmark.dk|date=22 September 2010|access-date=31 December 2011}}{{Dead link|date=September 2018 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref> In July 2013 an extension for three years was announced.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://bkfrem.dk/default.asp?vis=nyheder&id=2903 |title=Sponsor falls in place |language=da |work=bkfrem.dk |date=25 July 2013 |access-date=16 August 2013 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150403102242/http://bkfrem.dk/default.asp?vis=nyheder&id=2903 |archive-date=3 April 2015}}</ref> On 11 June 2016 it was prolonged for another three years.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.bkfrem.dk/default.asp?vis=nyheder&id=3876|title=Carlsberg prolongs |language=da|work=bkfrem.dk|date=11 June 2016 |access-date=20 October 2016}}</ref><br />
