Overview edit
The winner of the Kreisliga Schwaben-West, like the winner of the Kreisliga Schwaben-Ost and the Kreisliga Schwaben-Nord, is directly promoted to the Bezirksliga Schwaben-Nord. The second placed teams out of those leagues and the 13th placed team out of the Bezirksliga play-off for the last spot there.
The teams relegated from the Kreisliga have to step down to the Kreisklasse. The Kreisliga Schwaben-West is fed by the Kreisklasses Schwaben-West 1 and Schwaben-West 2.
Until 1998, the Kreisliga West was called A-Klasse West. Until 2008, reserve teams of clubs in the league had to enter a parallel reserves division without promotion or relegation but have since been allowed to join the regular league system.[1]
