Oberliga Süd covered the southern three German states of Bavaria, Baden-Württemberg and Hessen. ==Overview== The league was introduced as the highest level of football in the US occupation zone in 1945 to replace the disbanded Gauligen. It played its first round on 4 November 1945 and continued on throughout winter. No less than 16 clubs were elected into the new league, a novelty in German football and quite an achievement in the early post-war conditions.〔''100 Jahre Süddeutscher Fussball Verband'' , publisher: Vindelica Verlag, published: 1996, page: 71, accessed: 3 November 2008〕 At this stage, clubs from the south-western parts of Baden and Württemberg were not eligible to compete in it as they were based in the French occupation zone and had to play in the Oberliga Südwest (Südgruppe), where they remained until 1950, when the separation of South and Southwest was made final.〔''100 Jahre Süddeutscher Fussball Verband'' , publisher: Vindelica Verlag, published: 1996, page: 19, accessed: 3 November 2008〕 Play in the southern parts of Germany went underway almost straight after the end of the war while the north and east still had to wait some more years. One reason for this was the fact that the less industrial, more agricultural south had sustained much less damage to infrastructure. But there was another specific advantage. The authorities in the U.S. Zone encouraged the relaunch of competitive sports on a regional basis much earlier than this happened in the other zones. Regional (or nationwide) football associations were not tolerated anywhere before 1948. The Oberliga Süd, however, was licensed to a group of private persons, thus being a sort of "independent" league during its first five seasons. It did not join the South German F.A. until 1950. The clubs in the Oberliga Süd had been in the following ''Gauligen'': * Gauliga Baden (''without the clubs from the southern half'') * Gauliga Bayern * Gauliga Kurhessen * Gauliga Hessen-Nassau * Gauliga Württemberg In addition to the Oberliga Süd, four other Oberligas were formed in Germany in the 1940s. *Oberliga West (formed in 1947) *Oberliga Nord (formed in 1947) *Oberliga Berlin (formed in 1945, originally with clubs from west and east Berlin) *Oberliga Südwest (formed in 1945) Set below the Oberliga were originally the Landesligas of Hessen, Bayern, Württemberg and Nordbaden, from 1950 also Südbaden. From 1950 the 2nd Oberliga Süd was formed as an intermediate between Oberliga and Landesligas. With the reintroduction of the German championship in 1948, the winner and runners-up of the Oberliga Süd went on to the finals tournament with the other Oberliga champions. In 16 attempts the Oberliga Süd managed to win it six times. In 1950, the southern group of the Oberliga Südwest was disbanded and its clubs joined the Southern German Football Association. The SSV Reutlingen and the FC Singen 04 joined the Oberliga Süd, SV Tübingen, Freiburger FC and Vfl Konstanz were integrated into the new 2nd Oberliga Süd and the other eleven clubs were relegated to the Amateurliga. The Oberliga Süd had quite a few permanent clubs. The VfB Stuttgart, 1. FC Nuremberg, Eintracht Frankfurt, Kickers Offenbach, VfR Mannheim and FC Schweinfurt 05 played all of the 18 possible seasons in the league. The Karlsruher SC was also present for all 18 seasons but only by counting in both halves of the merger club. 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「Oberliga Süd (1945–63)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
