The new A classes for the 2025/26 season: Who plays where?
The anticipation of the coming season in Lower Bavarian football is looking forward to the new 2025/26 season, which begins on the weekend of July 26th and 27th. In the East football district, the 133 A-class teams have now been divided into ten different leagues, including three 14-a-side leagues and seven 13-a-side leagues. This division is an exciting but also challenging time for the clubs to set the course for the coming season. Fupa reports that A total of 133 teams will compete in the A classes, which underlines the popularity of football in the regional area.
What is particularly noteworthy is that teams from Passau take part in two different A classes. The A-Class Passau will be without a relegated team, while in the A-Class Regen and the A-Class Grafenau three teams each have been relegated from the district classes. This shows that the competition in the A class will be strong and the teams will have to fight hard for success.
