The first player is Jindřich Baumruk who played for Slavia and Sparta Prague at the turn of the century. He was born September 23, 1881, and came across the sport of football at his local school. From there he went on to play for Slavia from 1894-1904. He spent two years with the B team and twelve years with the first team. In 1904, he made the controversial move to Sparta Prague for one season. A move that some have speculated caused a big 'fuss' at the time and helped to contribute to the rivalry at the time. Despite this move, Baumruk was welcomed back to Slavia in 1905, and he retired at the club in 1910.
