2011–12 Fußball-Regionalliga
Encyclopedia
The 2011–12 Regionalliga season will be the eighteenth season of the Fußball-Regionalliga since its re-establishment after German
reunification
and the fourth as a fourth-level league within the German football league system
. It will be contested in three regional divisions.
The season will begin on 8 August 2011 and end on 20 May 2012.
The champions of each division will be promoted to the 2012–13 3rd Liga
.This tier of the German league pyramid will be expanded to five divisions for the 2012–13 season. No team will be relegated to a lower level on competitionally aspects at the end of the season.
at the end of its 2010–11 season
after going into administration. Subsequentially, Ahlen did not apply for a Regionalliga licence due to their financial situation, with the club aiming to participate in the fifth-tier NRW-Liga instead.
Insufficient funding was also the key problem for another 3rd Liga club as TuS Koblenz
were forced to withdraw their participation in the 2011–12 season
of the league several weeks after the last 2010–11 matches had been played. Koblenz then applied for a Regionalliga licence; however, it was not possible to determine in a legally binding way if the application was made in time. In order to avoid any disadvantages, the German FA
hence admitted both Koblenz and TSV Havelse
to the league; Havelse were originally relegated at the end of the 2010–11 Regionalliga season
, but would have benefitted of a possible application rejection for Koblenz.
Several eligible teams from the fifth-tier Oberligas turned down promotion as well, usually because of inability to fulfil the requirements for a Regionalliga licence. These teams include the champions and runners-up of the North division of the NOFV-Oberliga, Torgelower SV Greif
and Hansa Rostock II, NRW-Liga runners-up Germania Windeck and Bayernliga
champions FC Ismaning
.
, Chemnitzer FC
, Preußen Münster and Darmstadt 98
were promoted to the 2011–12 3rd Liga
. In turn, only one of the originally three relegated teams from the 3rd Liga, Bayern Munich II
, entered the league after both Wacker Burghausen
and Werder Bremen II
were spared from relegation because of the financial problems in Ahlen and Koblenz. The Bayern reserves were classified into the South division.
A total of six teams were relegated at the end of the 2010–11 season. Eintracht Braunschweig II
, FC Oberneuland
and Türkiyemspor Berlin
from the North division, FC Homburg
and Arminia Bielefeld II
from the West division, and SV Wehen Wiesbaden II from the South division returned to their respective fifth-level league. A further two teams, SSV Ulm 1846
and SpVgg Weiden
, had to withdraw in the middle of the season after going into administration and thus were automatically demoted. Ulm returned to the fifth tier in 2011–12, while Weiden was dissolved shortly thereafter; their successor club began play at the sixth tier for the 2011–12 season.
Ten teams were promoted from the fifth-level leagues. Oberliga Niedersachsen
champions SV Meppen
, Oberliga Hamburg
winners FC St. Pauli II
, NOFV-Oberliga South division champions Germania Halberstadt and third-placed NOFV-Oberliga North division sides Berlin AK 07
were entered into the Regionalliga North, with the latter benefitting of both Torgelower SV Greif
and Hansa Rostock II foregoing promotion. NRW-Liga winners Rot-Weiss Essen
, third-placed team Fortuna Köln
(as runners-up Germania Windeck chose to withdraw from the league at the end of the season) and Oberliga Südwest
champions SC Idar-Oberstein
were admitted into the Regionalliga West. Finally, Hessenliga
champions Bayern Alzenau
, Oberliga Baden-Württemberg
winners Waldhof Mannheim
and Bayernliga
runners-up FC Ingolstadt 04 II
(as champions FC Ismaning
did not obtain a Regionalliga licence) were promoted to the Regionalliga South.
This lead to Oberliga champions even, at times, declining their right for promotion to avoid the financial risk the Regionalliga meant to them, breaking with a basic principle of German football, that league champions would almost always be promoted.
In a special conference of the German Football Association
, the DFB, in October 2010, 223 of 253 delegates voted for a reform of the league system on the fourth level. The number of Regionalligas was to be expanded to five, with the reestablishing of the Regionalliga Nordost
, the formation of the Regionalliga Bayern
and a shift of the Regionalliga Süd to the new Regionalliga Süd/Südwest
.
The suggestion for the league reform had come from Bavaria, where, in a meeting of the Bavarian top-level amateur clubs at Wendelstein
, the financial survival of the leagues and clubs in the current system was questioned. It resulted in the publication of what was called the Wendelsteiner Anstoß, which demanded a clear demarcation between professional football on the first three tiers of German football and amateur football below that. For this purpose, the paper also demanded a reestablishment of the German amateur football championship
as an incentive and goal for top amateur clubs who did not want to turn professional.
One exception to the geographical alignment will be the Bavarian club FC Bayern Alzenau
, traditionally playing in Hesse
's league system, which will be grouped in the new Regionalliga Süd/Südwest, upon their own request, rather then in the Regionalliga Bayern.

Origins
The German league system, having gone through its last adjustment in 2008, when the 3rd Liga was established and the number of Regionalligas increased from two to three, required another adjustment by 2011. The reason for this was the large number of insolvencies on the fourth level, caused by high cost and infrastructure requirements while, at the same time, the clubs at this level complaint about low incomes and little interest from TV broadcasters. Requirements like that fact that Regionalliga stadiums had to have at least 1,000 seats and a separate stand with separate entrance for away spectators were seen as causing to much of a financial strain on amateur clubs. Many clubs also struggled to cope with the 400-pages long license application, having to rely on volunteers rather then being able draw on permanent staff.This lead to Oberliga champions even, at times, declining their right for promotion to avoid the financial risk the Regionalliga meant to them, breaking with a basic principle of German football, that league champions would almost always be promoted.
