The organisation of football in Austria is based on a hierarchical league system, allowing clubs to ascend or descend based on their performance. This structure is divided into several tiers, ranging from professional to amateur football.
At the top of the hierarchy is the Austrian Bundesliga, which is the highest level of Austrian football. It comprises 12 professional clubs vying for the title of Austrian champion. The bottom two teams in the standings at the end of the season are relegated to the 2. Liga, which also includes 16 clubs. The top two teams from this division are promoted to the Bundesliga, while the bottom three descend to the Regionalliga.
The Regionalliga, the third tier, is divided into three regional leagues. The champions of each league are promoted to the 2. Liga, and the bottom teams from each league are relegated to the Landesliga. This tier is subdivided into nine regional leagues, operating on the same principle of promotion and relegation with the Regionalliga and the 2. Landesliga.
The 2. Landesliga, the fifth tier of Austrian football, is organised into several regional groups. It includes amateur clubs as well as reserve teams from professional outfits. Beyond the 2. Landesliga, the system continues with regional and local divisions, highlighting the depth and richness of Austrian football at all levels of competition.
