The 2nd women's Bundesliga is the second highest division in German women's football after the Bundesliga . It was reinstalled in 2004 between the previously existing Bundesliga and Regionalliga . 14 teams are currently playing in the league, which was originally played on two tracks and has been a single track since 2018-19.
history
After the Bundesliga has been in a single track since 1997, it quickly became apparent that the performance gap between the Bundesliga and the regional leagues was growing ever larger. The relegated teams from the Bundesliga were usually vastly superior to the other regional division, but often failed in the promotion round. In order to reduce this gap, the DFB decided at its Bundestag in 2003 to introduce a two-pronged 2nd Bundesliga.
The original plan was to start with two relays of twelve teams each. The relays should then be reduced to a strength of ten teams each. As in the men's 2nd Bundesliga, second teams should not be allowed. The regional leagues north and west were allocated four, the regional league south-west two, the regional league south seven and the regional league north-east five places. In addition, there were the two relegated teams from the Bundesliga and a representative of the three southern German upper leagues.
In the further development, the DFB decided to allow second teams. After club protests it was decided to suspend the planned downsizing of the squadrons.
After the end of the 2003/04 season, the following teams qualified:
- from the Bundesliga : FFC Brauweiler Pulheim , 1. FC Saarbrücken
- from the Regionalliga Nord : SV Victoria Gersten , Hamburger SV II , SuS Timmel , MTV Wolfenbüttel
- from the Regionalliga West : FC Gütersloh 2000 , SG Lütgendortmund , SpVgg Oberaußem-Fortuna , SG Wattenscheid 09
- from the Regionalliga Südwest : FSV Viktoria Jägersburg
- from the Regionalliga Süd : TSV Jahn Calden , 1. FFC Frankfurt II , SV Jungingen , FFC Wacker Munich , SC Sand , VfL Sindelfingen
- from the Regionalliga Nordost : FC Erzgebirge Aue , Tennis Borussia Berlin , FF USV Jena , VfB Leipzig , 1. FFC Turbine Potsdam II
- from the Oberliga Baden-Württemberg : Karlsruher SC
In the Regionalliga West, TuS Köln rrh. Qualified in sports in 1874 . However, the association decided not to participate for financial reasons. The first successor FCR 2001 Duisburg II also waived, so that the SG Lütgendortmund was accepted. The master of the Regionalliga Südwest TuS Niederkirchen was also athletically qualified. However, the club only applied for the Bundesliga, so that a start in the 2nd Bundesliga was not possible. The women's football department of the insolvent VfB Leipzig transferred to 1. FC Lokomotive Leipzig .
The first game day was played on September 5, 2004. Christina Arend from 1. FC Saarbrücken scored the first goal in the history of the second division in the 7-1 victory of her club against FC Erzgebirge Aue.
2018/19: Single track league
The 2017/18 Bundesliga season was the last to be played in the north and south seasons. The season served as a qualification. From each season, the teams qualified in positions 2 to 6. There were also two first division relegated teams and two teams that prevailed in a qualifying round from eight teams. The two second division seventh and six regional league teams played there. If there were no restrictions on the use of 2nd teams so far, from 2018/19 these must be set up as U20 teams with a maximum of 3 older players.
mode
The championship is played in league games with a round trip. Each club may only take part in games in the 2nd Bundesliga with one team. If the first team of a club is relegated from the Bundesliga, its second team from the 2nd Bundesliga is relegated automatically. For example, the 1. FFC Turbine Potsdam was represented in 2005/06 with three teams from the Bundesliga to the Regionalliga (3rd division).
In the 2005/06 season, no relegation games were played for the fifth relegation place. The FSV Frankfurt as Table of the Bundesliga season 2005/06 did not request a license for the 2. Bundesliga. Two years later, relegation was dropped again. The TuS Niederkirchen managed in the league, although athletic, but also applied for a license for the 2008/09 season. Even after the 2014/15 season, the relegation was canceled due to the withdrawal of VfL Bochum .
Since the 2018/19 season, the second Bundesliga has only been played on a single track. It is hoped that this will increase the level of the league. The game is played with 14 teams, with second teams from clubs only allowed to use three players over the age of 20. The first two of the second Bundesliga are promoted to the first Bundesliga, while the last three are relegated to the regional league. The five regional league champions and one regional league champion determine who has been promoted to the 2nd Bundesliga in three drawn pairings with a return game. The participating regional league champion is determined using a performance table of the regional associations, which includes the performance of the clubs in the last three seasons in the first and second Bundesliga.
