Venues of the Gauliga Südwest 1934/35 Large map: Rhineland-Palatinate, small maps: Saarland and Hesse
The Gauliga Südwest 1934/35 was the second season of the Gauliga Südwest in football. This season eleven teams competed against each other in the south-west German upper house, three of which had to be relegated so that the league could achieve the “target strength” of ten clubs in the following season. Master was FC Phönix Ludwigshafen by three points, the Pfalz had proved particularly in the duels against the direct competitor to the Gaumeisterschaft as the strongest team. In the subsequent final round of the German championship , Phönix only narrowly failed in its preliminary group. In addition to 1. FC Kaiserslautern, both Saarbrücken teams had to relegate, which in retrospect marked a changing of the guard in football in the Saar metropolis due to the simultaneous rise of FV Saarbrücken . The second climber for Round 1935/36 moved Opel Rüsselsheim by.
