← GDR football league 1961/62

The GDR Oberliga 1962/63 was the 14th edition of the top division in the GDR . The SC Motor Jena became the champions for the first time . The season began on August 18, 1962 and ended on May 12, 1963.

Season course

For the first time the master came from the Gera district . Motor Jena secured the title on the penultimate matchday when their direct rival Empor Rostock was defeated 2-1 at home. For Rostock it was the second runner-up championship in a row. Behind Jena and Rostock, the champions of previous years, Vorwärts Berlin and Wismut Karl-Marx-Stadt , landed . Wismut experienced a proverbial roller coaster ride: After the first half of the season, the team was still bottom of the table and finally ended up in fourth place as the best team in the second half.

Activist Brieske-Senftenberg was already relegated two game days before the end. Activist was the bad second half of the season, where the team occupied the last place in the table from the 15th matchday to the end. With that, a founding member of the league rose again. Senftenberg never experienced league football again, as the SC activist was then dissolved and incorporated into the newly founded SC Cottbus .

The decision about the second relegation place was exciting. Before the last match day, four teams were in danger of relegation: Motor Karl-Marx-Stadt (10th, 22 points, −5 goals), Rotation Leipzig (11th, 22nd, −7), construction Magdeburg (12th, 21st, −3th) ) and Dynamo Dresden (13., 21, −9). Leipzig and Magdeburg each won their away games, so the decision was made in a direct clash between Dynamo Dresden and Motor Karl-Marx-Stadt. In front of 35,000 spectators in the Dresden Rudolf Harbig Stadium , the teams played a draw against each other, which meant that Motor remained in the top division and Dresden was relegated.
