The 2008–09 season of the Bayernliga, the fifth tier of the German football league system in the state of Bavaria at the time, was the 64th season of the league.
Overview
[edit]The league champions, SpVgg Weiden, were directly promoted to the Regionalliga Süd. It was Weiden's third Bayernliga title after 1953–54 and 1964–65 and their first promotion to Regionalliga level since the latter championship took them up for a season in 1965–66.[1][2][3]
The bottom three clubs were directly relegated from the league while 15th placed SV Seligenporten had to enter the relegation round with the Landesliga runners-up where it successfully defended its league place. Of the relegated clubs Würzburger FV and 1. FC Schweinfurt 05 made an immediate return to the Bayernliga in the following season while Würzburger Kickers bypassed the league in 2012, earning promotion from the tier six Landesliga Bayern-Nord to the new tier four Regionalliga Bayern without playing in the Bayernliga.[3]
Thomas Karg of VfL Frohnlach was the league's top scorer with 24 goals.[4]
