The Southern German Football Association ((ドイツ語:Süddeutscher Fussball-Verband)), the ''SFV'', is one of five regional organisations of the German Football Association, the ''DFB'', and covers the states of Baden-Württemberg, Bavaria and Hesse.〔(Regional Associations ) ''DFB'' website - Map and details of the regional associations, accessed: 4 April 2015〕 The ''SFV'' is in turn subdivided into the Baden Football Association, Bavarian Football Association, Hessian Football Association, South Baden Football Association and Württemberg Football Association.〔 In 2015, the ''SFV'' had 3,050,913 members, 9,842 member clubs and 64,512 teams playing in its league system. ==History== The ''Süddeutscher Fussball-Verband'' was formed as the ''Verband Süddeutscher Fußball-Vereine'' on 17 October 1897 in Karlsruhe in a meeting of the eight leading football clubs in Southern Germany, these being the Karlsruher FV, Phönix Karlsruhe, Fidelitas Karlsruhe, 1. FC Pforzheim, FC Heilbronn, FG 96 Mannheim, FC Hanau 93, and Germania 94 Frankfurt.〔''100 Jahre Süddeutscher Fussball-Verband'', p. 8〕 The new federation soon began to organise a regional football competition, the Southern German football championship, followed by a league system a few years later.〔''100 Jahre Süddeutscher Fussball-Verband'', p. 9-10〕〔(Geschichte ) ''SFV'' website – History, accessed: 5 April 2015〕 Originally the ''VSFV'' covered the Kingdom of Bavaria, the Kingdom of Württemberg, the Grand Duchy of Baden, the Grand Duchy of Hesse, Alsace-Lorraine, the Prussian Province of Hohenzollern, the Prussian Province of Hesse-Nassau (''southern parts only'') and the Prussian Rhine Province (''southern parts only''). Alsace-Lorraine ceased to be part of Germany and thereby the ''SFV'' after the First World War when the territory was returned to France.〔''Süddeutschlands Fussballgeschichte in Tabellenform 1897-1988'', p. 4, 9 & 10〕 In January 1900 the ''VSFV'' was a driving force in the formation of the German Football Association, the ''DFB''. In 1914 the ''VSFV'' renamed itself to ''Süddeutscher Fußball-Verband''.〔 In November 1927, the federation merged with the Southern German track and field association, forming a much enlarged federation, the ''Süddeutscher Fussball- und Leichtathletik-Verband - SFLV''.〔''100 Jahre Süddeutscher Fussball-Verband'', p. 13-14〕 With the rise of the Nazis to power in 1933, the federation received the order from Berlin to disband itself in March 1933. On 6 August 1933, the ''SFLV'' held its last general meeting, in Stuttgart, where the order to disband was officially carried out. At the time the association was without a president as Eduard Kartini had died in 1932 and a new president was to be elected in 1933. Paul Flierl lead the ''SFLV'' in an acting role in its final pre-Second World War year and it was him that preserved the Southern German Championship trophy from the Nazis during this era. 〔''100 Jahre Süddeutscher Fussball-Verband'', p. 14〕 The financial liquidation of the federation was completed in 1942.〔''100 Jahre Süddeutscher Fussball-Verband'', p. 15〕 Post-Second World War Germany the reestablishing of a Southern German federation seemed initially impossible as travel between occupation zones was very difficult and the area of the former ''SFLV'' was split between the U.S. and French zones..〔 Instead, state associations were formed but these new association was not exclusively popular, as it was seen by former members of the ''SFLV'' as an obstacle to reestablish the later.〔''50 Jahre Bayerischer Fussball-Verband'', p. 21〕 The situation soon deteriorated into conflict as, in September 1945, a regional football league was established, the Oberliga Süd, which was made up of 16 of the foremost football clubs of Southern Germany. The organisers of this competition had also received the permission to reestablish the ''SFV'' from the US authorities. Below the Oberliga, the not yet officially reestablished ''SFV'' degreed that Landesligas were to be established for each of the states.〔''100 Jahre Süddeutscher Fussball-Verband'', p. 15-16〕 In 1948 professionalism was legalised when the Oberliga approved a statute for contracted players for the league,〔''100 Jahre Süddeutscher Fussball-Verband'', p. 17〕 which was expanded to the 2. Oberliga after formation of the league in 1950.〔''100 Jahre Süddeutscher Fussball-Verband'', p. 19〕 On 19 December 1949, the Southern German Football Association was officially reestablished. To alleviate any friction between the Southern German and the state associations, the state associations became a member of the ''SFV'' but the football clubs remained members of their state associations only, not the ''SFV''. The ''SFV'' had the responsibility to organise the Oberliga and the new 2. Oberliga Süd, all other leagues were part of their state associations.〔''100 Jahre Süddeutscher Fussball-Verband'', p. 17〕〔 The new ''SFV'' had already lost the Saarland as a region and, in 1950, lost the southern half of Rhineland-Palatinate as well when the South West German Football Association left the ''SFV'' in mutual consent over a dispute over whether the Oberliga should be played in one or two regional divisions.〔''100 Jahre Süddeutscher Fussball-Verband'', p. 19〕 On the other hand the ''SFV'' gained the region of northern Hesse which had not been part of the association before the Second World War.〔''Süddeutschlands Fussballgeschichte in Tabellenform 1897-1988'', p. 4〕 With the introduction of the Bundesliga in 1963 the ''SFV'' lost its premier football competition, the Oberliga Süd but maintained control of the second tier, the Regionalliga Süd. When the 2. Bundesliga was introduced in 1974 the association had to share control of the southern division of this league with the neighbouring Regional Football Association South West. When the 2. Bundesliga became a single division league the ''SFV'' lost control over the second tier as well and did not have a league under its direct control. The establishment of a new Oberliga Süd, now as a tier three league, was considered from 1980 onwards but such a step was not taken until 14 years later when the Regionalliga Süd was reestablished, now as the third tier.〔''100 Jahre Süddeutscher Fussball-Verband'', p. 20-23〕 As of 2015 the ''SFV'' organises only three leagues, the third tier Women's Regionalliga Süd, the Girls Under-17 Bundesliga and the Under 15 Regionalliga Süd. The Regionalliga Süd, the senior men's league it administrated since 1994, was disbanded in 2012 and replaced by the Regionalliga Bayern which coveres Bavaria and the Regionalliga Südwest, which coveres the remaining area of the ''SFV'' and the area of the Regional Football Association South West. 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「Southern German Football Association」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
