[edit] Overview

The Verbandsliga Württemberg was introduced, at the same time as the Oberliga Baden-Württemberg, in 1978 as a merger between the Amateurligas Nordwürttemberg and Schwarzwald-Bodensee. The top five teams out of those leagues went to the new Oberliga while the teams from place 6 to 12 found themselves in the Verbandsliga.The two 13th placed teams had to play a decider for the last Verbandsliga spot. All other team went to the Landesligas.

The winner of the Verbandsliga gains direct promotion to the Oberliga. The runners-up must play-off against the winner of the Verbandsliga Nordbaden versus Südbaden runners-up series. The winner of this play-off gains promotion to the Oberliga too. In 1981 no extra spot and in 1994 three extra spots were available due to league format changes.

Feeder leagues to the Verbandsliga Württemberg

  • Landesliga Württemberg 1
  • Landesliga Württemberg 2
  • Landesliga Württemberg 3
  • Landesliga Württemberg 4

The winner of each of the four Landesligas wins direct promotion to the Verbandsliga. The runners-up will only have a chance for promotion if there is additional spots in the Verbandsliga to fill.

The Verbandsliga Württemberg usually has one or more Bavarian clubs playing in it as there is a number of clubs from western Bavaria that play in the Baden-Württemberg Football League System. Currently, the SpVgg Au/Iller and the FV Illertissen are the only Bavarian clubs in the Verbandsliga.

The term "Verbandsliga" translates as "Football Association League". With the exception of Bavaria and Hessen, the Verbandsligas form the 5th tier of football in all of Germany. There are 21 Football Associations within the German Association DFB, Württemberg being one of them.
