Kreisliga Schwaben-Nord

Until the disbanding of the Bezirksoberliga Schwaben in 2012 it was the ninth tier. From 2008, when the 3.

Overview

The winner of the Kreisliga Schwaben-Nord, like the winner of the Kreisliga Schwaben-Ost and the Kreisliga Schwaben-West, is directly promoted to the Bezirksliga Schwaben-Nord. The second placed teams out of those leagues and the 13th placed team out of the Bezirksliga play-off for the last spot there.

The teams relegated from the Kreisliga have to step down to the Kreisklasse. Kreisliga Schwaben-Nord is fed by the Kreisklasses Schwaben-Nord I and Schwaben-Nord II.

Until 1998, the Kreisliga Nord was called A-Klasse Nord. Until 2010, reserve teams of clubs in the league had to enter a parallel reserves division without promotion or relegation but have since been allowed to join the regular league system.[1]
