The football regional league season 1972/73 was the tenth season of the then second highest division in German football .

In the promotion games, Rot-Weiss Essen , the club had scored over a hundred goals in the regular season, and SC Fortuna Köln two teams from the Regionalliga West prevailed and thus rose to the Bundesliga . At the end of the season, the former Bundesliga club Tasmania 1900 Berlin had to file for bankruptcy because the club had taken over financially while trying to get promoted again, and was dissolved at the end of the process.

mode

The game was played in five regional leagues. The two best teams in each regional league at the end of the regular season played the two first division promoted teams in two five-team rounds. With the exception of the Regionalliga Süd, in which the last three teams were affected, the last two in all leagues had to be relegated to the 1st amateur league.
