The Bezirksoberliga Unterfranken was the seventh tier of the German football league system in the Bavarian Regierungsbezirk of Lower Franconia (German: Unterfranken). Until the introduction of the 3. Liga in 2008 it was the sixth tier of the league system, until the introduction of the Regionalligas in 1994 the fifth tier.

The league was disbanded at the end of the 2011–12 season, when major changes to the Bavarian football league system were carried out. Above the Bezirksoberligas, the Landesligas were expanded in number from three to five divisions and the Bezirke have two to three regional leagues, the Bezirksligas, as its highest level again, similar to the system in place until 1988. ^[1]

Overview

The Bezirksoberligas in Bavaria were introduced in 1988 to create a highest single-division playing level for each of the seven Bezirke.

Before the introduction of the Bezirksoberligas, the Bezirksliga was the level of play below the Landesliga. The Bezirksliga Unterfranken-Gruppe 1 and Unterfranken-Gruppe 2 fed the Landesliga Bayern-Nord as they afterwards fed the Bezirksoberliga Unterfranken.

The winner of the Bezirksoberliga Unterfranken, like the winner of the Bezirksoberliga Oberfranken, was directly promoted to the Landesliga Bayern-Nord. The two second placed teams out of those leagues played-off for another promotion spot. The winner went to the Landesliga, the loser faced the 15th placed team out of the Landesliga for the last spot there. However, in some years additional promotion places were available in the Landesliga.

The three bottom teams of the Bezirksoberliga were relegated to the Bezirksliga, the team just above those faced a play-off against the second placed Bezirksliga teams.

With the league reform at the end of the 2011–12 season, which includes an expansion of the number of Landesligas from three to five, the Bezirksoberligas were disbanded. Instead, the Bezirksligas took the place of the Bezirksoberligas below the Landesligas once more. ^[2]

The clubs from the Bezirksoberliga joined the following leagues: ^{[1] [3]}

• Teams placed 7th to 10th: Four additional Landesliga places to be determined in a play-off round with the Bezirksliga champions, losers enter Bezirksliga.
• Teams placed 11th to 16th: Directly relegated to Bezirksliga.
