Bezirksoberliga Niederbayern

The Bezirksoberliga Niederbayern is currently the 7th tier of the German football league system. Until the introduction of the 3rd Liga in 2008 it was the 6th tier of the league system.

Overview

The Bezirksoberligas in Bavaria were introduced in 1988 to create a highest single-division playing level for each of the seven Bezirke.

Before the introduction of the Bezirksoberligas, the Bezirksliga was the level of play below the Landesliga. The Bezirksliga Niederbayern-Ost and Niederbayern-West fed the Landesliga Bayern-Mitte as they now feed the Bezirksoberliga Niederbayern.

The winner of the Bezirksoberliga Niederbayern, like the winner of the Bezirksoberliga Oberpfalz and Bezirksoberliga Mittelfranken, is directly promoted to the Landesliga Bayern-Mitte. The second placed teams out of those leagues play-off for another promotion spot with the 15th placed team out of the Landesliga for the last spot there.However, in some years additional promotion places are available in the Landesliga.

The three bottom teams of the Bezirksoberliga are relegated to the Bezirksliga, the team just above those faces a play-off against the second placed Bezirksliga teams.
