history [edit ]

football has been played in Austria since around 1890. Around the plow of the twentieth century two attempts were made to start a national championship. From 1900 onwards, a cup competition was played in Vienna, the Neues Wiener Tagblatt Pokal. This cup was actually played in league format. [ 2 ] The efforts to create a football league succeeded in 1911, with the introduction of the first austrian football backing. The contest for this backing, the 1. Klasse ( First Class ), was created and organized by the Niederösterreichischer Fußball-Verband ( the Lower Austrian Football Federation ), and the participants played for the title of Niederösterreichische Landesmeister ( Lower Austrian National Champion ). From 1924, the league was considered professional and changed its name to I. Liga ( First League ). [ 3 ] In 1929, an all-Austrian amateur championship was inaugural played, won by Grazer AK. Clubs from the professional league in Vienna were not separate of this rival. [ 4 ] Teams from the early states of Austria were first allowed to join the highest division with the insertion of the Nationalliga ( National League ) in the season of 1937–38. [ 5 ]
Austria ‘s annexation by Germany in 1938 brought the austrian Nationalliga to an early end. numerous teams were disbanded and some players fled out of the state. The austrian Nationalliga was integrated into the system of the NSRL, the Sports office of the Third Reich as the Gau XVII section under Gaufachwart Hans Janisch. Despised by Nazis as undeserving of a true German, professionalism in sports was outlawed in May 1938. “ Innovations ” like the Hitler salute were introduced as compulsory before and after every game. Teams, like Hakoah Wien were banned and others, like Austria Wien were first closed and then renamed. ultimately, the operation of the junior teams was handed over to the local Hitlerjugend units. [ 6 ] The new highest league in what had been Austria, the Gauliga Ostmark, was an amateur league and covered the whole of the early state except Tyrol and Vorarlberg, which were added to the Bavarian league system. [ 7 ] The league champions nowadays qualified for the german football championship, which Rapid Wien won in 1941. From 1941, the league was renamed Gauliga Donau-Alpenland to further eradicate the memory of Austria as an independent country. Following Nazi Germany ‘s frustration in World War II and the disbandment of the NSRL, Austria ‘s teams were excluded again from the german league .
The league returned to a Vienna-only format in 1945, concisely named 1. Klasse once more before changing to equitable Liga in 1946. only upon the initiation of the all-Austrian Staatsliga A in 1949 did teams from the wholly federal district finally play for the austrian Championship. however, the road to organising the Staatsliga proved unmanageable. A conflict between the representatives of the amateur and the professional aspects of the mutant led to the separation of the Viennese league from the football confederation, and to the constitution of its own competition on 30 June 1949. At the statutory Presidential Election Council of the Austrian Football Association entirely a few days late a surprise change state took place – upon the request of Lower Austria, the introduction of the Staatsliga was finally and unanimously confirmed. The organization was in the hands of the Fußballstaatsliga Österreich, created for this purpose. [ 8 ] A Staatsliga B, the moment division of national league football, was formed in 1950. This league, however, was disbanded again in 1959, whereby the Staatsliga A dropped the A from its identify, the need for differentiating having been gone. [ 9 ] In 1965, however, the Austrian Football Association again took over the organization of the top division, with the ( second base ) presentation of the Nationalliga. [ 10 ] On 21 April 1974, against the right to vote of the Vorarlberg association, the insertion of the Bundesliga was decided. The Nationalliga remained as the second division, for now. [ 11 ]

In the 1974–75 season the Bundesliga was introduced which, still led by the Austrian Football Association, aligned both of the highest divisions in Austria.

[ 12 ] From 1974 to 1982 the league operated with ten clubs with each cabaret playing the early four times during the season. From 1982 to 1985 it played with sixteen clubs with each club playing the others twice. The league ‘s modus was changed in 1985 to a twelve team league which played a home -and away round in fall. The exceed eight clubs then advanced to the championship round ( officially : Oberes Play-off ) who again played each other twice. The bottom four of the fall round played the top four of the First League to determine the four teams to play in the Bundesliga in the be season. This modus was used for the next eight seasons until 1993 when the league returned to the ten team format it in the first place operated in. [ 13 ] 26 years after adjournment of the freelancer Staatsliga on 17 November 1991, the austrian Football Bundesliga was reconstituted as a federation and admitted on 1 December 1991 to the Austrian Football Association as its tenth member. Beginning with the 2018-19 season the league expanded from its current 10 teams to 12 teams. [ 14 ]
