In order to be allowed to participate in the German soccer championship , a club first had to win its regional league and then prevail in the association championship, in Central Germany this was the central German soccer championship . From the German soccer championship in 1924/25 , each of the regional associations was allowed to send two representatives to the German soccer championship. Unlike most other associations, the Association of Central German Ball Game Clubs did not nominate the Central German runner-up as the second participant, but instead played the Central German Cup from 1927, the winner of which took second place for Central Germany at the German football championship.
history
The Central German Cup was first played in the 1926/27 season and lasted until 1933. The cup was donated by the Neue Leipziger Zeitung . All clubs in the association were eligible to participate. In the first run, 433 teams took part. The number of participating clubs increased by 1930 to 788 teams taking part in the competition. The first rounds were played in group matches. The Central German Cup winner qualified as the second VMBV participant for the German soccer championship .
In the course of the conformity, the Association of Central German Ball Game Associations was dissolved a few months after the National Socialists came to power in 1933 and joined the German Reich Association for Physical Exercise (Gau 5 Sachsen and Gau 6 Mitte). From then on, games were organized by the Football Department in various Gauligen areas , and there was initially no regional cup competition. With the Tschammer Cup in 1935 , a nationwide cup competition was introduced two years later.
