Prior to this LBC played a prominent role in the formation of Verband Leipziger Ballspiel-Vereine in 1896 with Büttner serving as the city league's first president.
This circuit was part of the larger regional Verbande Mitteldeutscher Ballspiel-Vereine (Federation of Central German Ballgame Associations).
The footballers played in the city's Sportplatz in white-and-yellow vertically striped jerseys and dark-blue shorts.
They generally earned lower-to-mid-table results, with their best finish coming in 1907–08 when they appeared in the city final, losing 1:6 to VfB Leipzig.
After a long string of poor finishes LBC slipped to lower-tier play in the mid-1920s before disappearing towards the end of World War II.
