Note on the term amateur
The term "amateur" in German football nowadays does not quite mean the same as in other countries; it does not as such indicate that a player does not get paid but rather means the player is paid below a certain level, often a so called "Aufwandsentschädigung", which literally means "reimbursement of costs". Rather, in comparison with the league system in the United Kingdom, the term amateur could be translated with non-league.
Up until the formation of the "Regionalligas", reserve teams of professional clubs carried the title "Amateure" behind the club name to distinguish first from second team. Due to the fact that these teams are not truly amateurs, these teams now, like all other reserve sides, carry the II behind the name, for example, VfB Stuttgart Amateure became VfB Stuttgart II.
