Venues of the Gauliga Silesia 1939/40.

The Gauliga Schlesien 1939/40 was the seventh season of the Gauliga Schlesien of the professional football department . The start of the season on August 27, 1939 was canceled due to political events. In the autumn, local game rounds took place first, until the war championship officially started on December 3, 1939 with two groups. The Gauliga was not named in Gauklasse . In the two groups "Middle and Lower Silesia" and "Upper Silesia", area champions were played in a round-robin tournament with two-legged matches, who then played in two final pairings for the Gaume Championship. For the fifth time, the SpVgg Vorwärts-Rasensport Gleiwitz secured the championship with two wins in the finals against the Breslauer FV 06 and thus qualified for the German soccer championship 1939/40 . In this, Gleiwitz met SK Rapid Wien and NSTG Graslitz in the group phase and missed the jump into the semi-finals by taking second place. Since the next season was played in a group again, half of the teams from each of the two groups were relegated. Due to the war, two teams also withdrew.

District 13

The areas of Upper Silesia annexed in violation of international law by the attack on Poland were repurposed as District 13 in the Gau Silesia. From March 3, 1940, championship games were played in 5 seasons. The best 12 clubs played a deciding round. However, this was not played to the end and 1. FC Kattowitz was determined to be promoted to the Gauliga.

Relegation round Upper Silesia

The two leading clubs in District 13, FV Germania Königshütte and TuS Schwientochlowitz , were allowed to play in a relegation round against the fourth and fifth placed in the Upper Silesia group for participation in next year's Gauliga. In the round, which was broken off prematurely, both newcomers prevailed and accordingly also rose to the Gauliga for the next season.
