(詳細はfootball league in predominantly German speaking parts of Czechoslovakia, the ''Sudetenland'', which was awarded to Germany on 30 September 1938 through the Munich Agreement. Shortly after the completion of the occupation on 10 October 1938, the Nazis reorganised the administration in the region, forming the ''Reichsgau Sudetenland''. ==Overview== After the German occupation, a ''Gauliga Sudetenland'' championship was organized by the Nazi Sports Office in 1938-39 in the form of a knock-out competition involving the four regional champions, the ''Bezirksmeister''. The winner of this competition qualified for the German championship. Throughout the league's existence, only ethnically German clubs were permitted to take part in the ''Gauliga''. Except for the 1938-39 edition, when clubs still operated under their original names, almost all teams had to adopt the prefix ''NTSG'' standing for ''Nationalsozialistische Turnergemeinde'' and were under direct Nazi control. The only clubs outside this system were the military clubs.〔(Czech clubs in the German football structure 1938-1944 ) RSSSF.com, accessed: 24 June 2008〕 In March 1939, Nazi Germany went to occupy the remaining part of Czechoslovakia. It formed the German controlled Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia and the nominally independent country of Slovakia. Ethnically German clubs from the newly occupied region took part in the ''Gauliga Sudetenland'', especially from Prague. The league proper started in 1939, with eleven teams in two groups. The two group champions played a one-off final to determined the ''Sudetenland'' champion. The season after the league was reduced to seven teams in an otherwise unchanged setup. The season was greatly shortened due to a number of clubs dropping out throughout it. The 1941-42 season saw a return to a more organised league system with eighteen clubs in three equal divisions. The three divisional champions then played a home-and-away finals round to determined the ''Sudetenland'' champion. The following season, the league was again reduced in numbers throughout the season, finishing with fifteen clubs in the same three groups, four in the eastern group, five in the central and six in the western group. Again, a finals tournament for the group champions was played. From 1943, clubs from the ''Protectorate'' left to take part in the new ''Gauliga Böhmen und Mähren''. In its last completed season, the league operated with thirteen clubs in two divisions, with a home-and-away final of the two divisional champions at the end. Not every club however completed their full program of matches. The imminent collapse of Nazi Germany in 1945 affected all ''Gauligas'' and its doubtful whether the 1944-45 season in the ''Gauliga Sudetenland'' got under way at all. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gauliga Sudetenland」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
