TuS Schönenberg: Descent shock after a bitter defeat against Wolfstein

The TuS Schönenberg sealed the relegation from the district league on April 27, 2025 with a 1-2 defeat in the district duel against TSG Wolfstein-Roßbach. The loss means the end of a challenging season for the club, which now has to relegate to the district league A. This decision was made in an exciting game, in which players Yannick Metzger and Niklas Lalla from TSG Wolfstein-Roßbach were actively involved. The defeat has far -reaching consequences for TuS, both sporty and financially.

The descent from the district league is a serious setback in German amateur football. According to the regulations, the last four teams of each group descend into the district league A, which corresponds to a total of 24 relegations. The TuS Schönenberg is now part of this circle, while TSG Wolfstein-Roßbach has collected important points with this victory to assert itself in the midfield of the table. The starting point for the next season will be complicated by the descent, since the club must now reorient.

The current situation in the district league

In the district league there are currently some challenges, differences and developments. Some clubs such as Glückauf Möllen and TV Jahn Hiesfeld withdrew their first representations, which also puts a strain on the situation. In addition, SC Ayyildiz Remscheid followed in spring, which further changed the league structure. The coming season 2024/25 will start with 108 clubs and six groups of 18 teams each, with promotion places from Kreisliga A redistributed to the district league.

A crucial point in the league region is that only the champions of the six groups rise to the national league at the end of the season. This means that there will be a total of six promoters, while numerous teams can descend from the Landesliga - between 9 and 12 teams are possible. The upcoming descent of the TuS Schönenberg could have an impact on the composition of the league in the next few years.

The possible dates for decision -making games in the 2023/2024 season could be of great importance for some teams. The first games are scheduled for June 5, 2024, followed by other crucial encounters. The results of these games will be decisive for how the teams will be set up next season.

Overall, the defeat of the TuS Schönenberg against TSG Wolfstein-Roßbach shows the fragile structures in amateur football and the risk associated with a descent. Preparations for the next season will be challenging for the association, as it will have to focus on a composition of the team that is constant enough in the district league A to rise again as quickly as possible.
