German Football League 2011 is an overview of the 2011 season of the American Football Bundesliga , the 33rd season of the 1. Bundesliga / GFL.

League division

The 2011 season was played by 14 teams, evenly divided into two groups. It was the first season in the top division with more than 12 teams since the Bundesliga was renamed GFL in the 1990s, and the first stage of the league increase decided in October 2010.

The relegation mode was modified to increase the league from 12 to 14 teams. For the 2011 and 2012 season , the group winners of the GFL2 will be promoted directly to the GFL, while the group runners-up will have to compete against the bottom group of the GFL in the relegation. The winner of the relegation game is promoted to the GFL or remains in it.

Due to the modified rule, the Mönchengladbach Mavericks and Saarland Hurricanes rose directly as group winners of the GFL2 season 2010 . The Düsseldorf Panthers and Wiesbaden Phantoms were able to win their relegation games against the Berlin Rebels and Weinheim Longhorns and also rose to the GFL.

The following table gives an overview of the participating teams, their group membership and their all-time Bundesliga or GFL record before the start of the 2011 season:

The Essen Assindia Cardinals waived the relegation games due to a lack of sporting prospects and applied for a license for the 2012 season in GFL 2. This means that the champions and the runner-up in the 2011 GFL 2 season are promoted directly from the northern relay. The situation is similar in the southern season: For the same reasons (sporting prospects, personnel problems), the team from Plattling did not apply for a license for the first or second division, but was relegated directly to the Regionalliga Süd. As a result, in addition to the Franken Knights (1st place GFL 2 South), the runner-up in the 2nd division also has the direct route to the GFL South.
