history

As a gift for joining the German Football Association (DFB), the President of the NOFV, Hans-Georg Moldenhauer (l.), Presented DFB President Hermann Neuberger (r.) With a Trabant, 1990
Office of the NOFV in the Berlin Sportforum

After the German Football Association of the German Democratic Republic dissolved on November 20, 1990 , the NOFV was founded in its place. He joined the DFB on November 21, but initially retained his divisions, even if they were renamed the NOFV-Oberliga (formerly Oberliga ) and NOFV-Liga (formerly league ). The FDGB-Pokal was also played under the name NOFV-Pokal.

The integration into the existing structures of the DFB with the simultaneous inclusion of the Berlin Football Association in the NOFV took place in 1991, when two top division clubs were integrated into the Bundesliga and six more into the 2nd Bundesliga . The other clubs were incorporated together with the NOFV league clubs in the newly created squadrons North, Middle and South of the third-class Oberliga Nordost , of which the season was dissolved in mid-1994 and distributed to the other squadrons. Some of the clubs in the now fourth-class league also qualified for the newly founded Regionalliga Nord / Nordost , which had to be formed together with the North German Football Association . However, since they resisted this double league due to the travel costs, the regional league was actually only temporarily, but ultimately designed permanently in two seasons, which corresponded to the areas of the two associations and played off the champions in a final. Thus, the Northeast relay of the third-class Regionalliga Nord / Nordost actually became the highest division of the NOFV before the Oberliga Nordost.

With the regional league reform in 2000, the fourth-class Oberliga Nordost with its North and South squadrons again represented the highest men's division in the association, the first of which were promoted directly to the national two-track regional league now run by the DFB . With the introduction of the 3rd division , the Oberliga Nordost was initially fifth class from the 2008/09 season. From the 2012/13 season, a Regionalliga Nordost was again introduced as the association's top division.

In women's football, the Regionalliga Nordost is the highest division of the NOFV and emerged from the women's football championship on the territory of the GDR, which was played for the only time in the league system in 1990/91 as the Oberliga Nordost and then integrated into the DFB's game operations. The regional league champion is promoted directly to the 2nd Bundesliga .
