Venues of the Gauliga Niederrhein 1939/40

The Gauliga Niederrhein 1939/40 was the seventh season of the Gauliga Niederrhein in football. With the beginning of the Second World War , 85 teams originally played a bridging round over six relays. The actual war championship began on November 7, 1939. The championship was held again in this season in a round-robin tournament with ten teams. Fortuna Düsseldorf secured the Gaume Championship for the fifth time with a four point lead over Schwarz-Weiß Essen . The Düsseldorf team thus qualified for the German soccer championship 1939/40 , in which the team came second in a group with FC Schalke 04 , Mülheimer SV 06 and CSC 03 Kassel , which was not enough to advance. The relegation ranks were occupied by SSV Wuppertal and VfB 03 Hilden . TuS Helene Altenessen and VfR Ohligs rose from the district leagues .
