The Korneuburger Sportvereinigung was a sports club located in the Korneuburg District of Austria. The club joined the Austrian Ice Hockey Federation (OEHV) in 1923.

Korneuburg first took part in the Austrian Hockey Championship during the 1923-24 season. They played in the 2. Klasse of the league in 1924-25 and the knockout-format competition the following year. They later played in the 2. Klasse in 1926-27 and 1928-29.

At the OEHV meeting of April 8, 1926, Korneuburg was excluded from the association for violation of § 8 of the bylaws. In the meeting it was decided that Korneuburg would be suspended on September 1, 1925, if by that date not all outstanding payments had not been paid. The Association Assembly on April 7, 1927, established that Korneuburg would be allowed to remain as a provisional member. Full membership would only be restored after balancing the financial obligations.

Because of repeated violation of the statutes, Korneuburg was again excluded from the OEHV in December 1927. The club's players were listed as free for other clubs. In January 1928, the Board of the Association announced are that Korneuburg would be allowed back in the case of payment of all outstanding debts, as well as payment of a cash deposit of 100 shillings. At the annual meeting on April 14, 1928, the Board announced that full membership was not granted because the club had not kept the promises it made. The association remained a provisional member.

The club started play again in December 1928 as a provisional member of the Association. On February 22, 1929, the club was suspended from the association and it prohibited all clubs from competing against them. Korneuburg was not re-instated and the hockey section soon dissolved.
