The Brandenburg State Football Association ( FLB for short ) is the umbrella organization for all football clubs in Brandenburg . It is one of the 21 regional associations of the German Football Association (DFB) and a member of the Northeast German Football Association (NOFV). The association has its headquarters in Cottbus .
history
Like the Berlin Football Association, the Brandenburg State Football Association is an indirect successor to the former Association of Brandenburg Ball Game Clubs (VBB), which was the umbrella organization for all football clubs from Berlin and the Brandenburg Province from 1911 to 1933 . Before that, the Brandenburg clubs were predominantly represented in the Märkischer Fußball-Bund , which in 1911 was merged with the Association of Berlin Ball Game Clubs and the Association of Berlin Athletics Clubs (in which, however, Brandenburg clubs were also registered) to form VBB.
After the National Socialists came to power in 1933, the DFB and all regional football associations were dissolved and replaced by the Football and Football District Office. Instead of the VBB, the Gau Berlin-Brandenburg entered the Gauliga Berlin-Brandenburg as the top division. During the entire period, almost only sports clubs in Berlin set the tone. A club like Brandenburger SC was rarely able to break into the phalanx of Berlin clubs in the 1940s . Only clubs from Berlin provided the national champions .
After the end of the Second World War , the state of Brandenburg was dissolved in 1952 and mainly divided into the districts of Cottbus , Frankfurt (Oder) and Potsdam . After German reunification , the former districts in the new federal state of Brandenburg were merged again on October 3, 1990. For the football clubs was already on 28. July 1990 in Potsdam the Brandenburg Football Association created as an umbrella organization. 54 delegates from the district associations (BFA) Cottbus, Frankfurt / Oder and Potsdam elected Siegfried Kirschen as the first president. Cottbus was named as the place of business . The football and athletics association of Westphalia (FLVW) took over the sponsorship of the newly founded regional association
The Brandenburg State Football Association is the largest sports association in the state of Brandenburg with 99,406 members.

A more far-reaching structural reform was carried out in the FLB for the 2014/15 season. The main focus here was on reducing the number of football circles from 17 to 8 now. Furthermore, this reform had an impact on national matches for juniors and the league hierarchy in the men's division:
- The number of relays in the national class has been reduced from five to four, reducing the number of teams at this level from 80 to 64. After the 2013/14 season, only the first eight of each season remained in the national class. The 17 district champions completed the starting field for the 2014/15 season. The structure of the Landesliga (two seasons) and Brandenburgliga (one season) remained.
- The basic structure in junior football was retained. An application is currently being examined according to which the team field in the national classes of the A to C juniors as well as the national league of the D and E youth should be reduced from 12 to ten.
- The district league was introduced as the highest division in the new great districts. The district leagues and district classes continue to exist below this.
In May 2012 the FLB announced the basic limits for the new counties. In January 2013, the final boundaries of the districts and the associated number of clubs as well as the official names of the eight districts were announced. With the structural reform that came into force on July 1, 2014, the number of football circles was reduced from 17 to 8.

Furthermore, the association awards the title of Brandenburg Cup winner every year , the winner of which is allowed to participate in the DFB Cup in the following season . For a short time, the FLB also hosted the so-called regional cup, in which the cup winners of the soccer circles as well as the national class teams of the previous season that did not qualify for the national cup took part. The respective winners were able to take part in the national cup in the following season . The division cup has since been abolished.

Competitions
The following regional competitions are held under the umbrella of the FLB:
Brandenburg state championship
Today's Brandenburg League was founded in 1990 as the Brandenburg State League. When it was first introduced, the state league became the third highest division behind the first and second division. For the 1991/92 season it was, due to the introduction of the Oberliga Nordost, only led as the fourth highest league.
From the 1993/94 season it was renamed Verbandsliga Brandenburg and in the following year, with the introduction of the Regionalliga, it became the fifth highest division. With the renewed restructuring and the associated introduction of the 3rd division for the 2007/08 season, it bears its current name and belongs to the sixth highest division.
At its board conference on May 11, 2020, the Brandenburg State Football Association decided to allow the 2019/2020 season to expire without any further games due to the SARS-CoV-2 containment ordinance issued by the State of Brandenburg. The 2019/20 season was thus ended prematurely for the first time in the history of the Brandenburg State Football Association.
Brandenburg State Cup
After the reunification of Germany, there was no uniform national cup. In the 1990/91 and 1991/92 seasons, the respective district cups for Cottbus, Frankfurt / Oder and Potsdam were played in "GDR mode". The winners then determined the winner of the state cup in a three-way tournament.
Due to the restructuring of the game operations of the newly founded FLB (dissolution of the district leagues, introduction of the state leagues, etc.) the well-known knockout system was introduced in the 1992/93 season.
At the beginning of the 2006/07 season, another cup competition, the so-called area cup, was launched. In this regionally divided competition (north and south), the cup winners of the soccer circles as well as the national class teams of the previous season that did not qualify for the national cup took part. The respective winners were able to take part in the national cup in the following season. The division cup has since been abolished.
