Final Table

Course of the season

In the south were the not included in the Bundesliga clubs FC Bayern Munich and Kickers Offenbach, the clear favorites for the first two places. Surprisingly, however, picked up the tithe of the league season 1962/63, Hesse Kassel, the championship in 1964 in the Regionalliga Süd before Munich and Offenbach. Taking the human situation at hand, the success of Northern Hesse is no longer so surprising. With Heiner Dittel ( Viktoria Aschaffenburg ), Rolf Fritzsche (Hamburger SV) and Gerd Becker ( FV Breidenbach ) were added three new entries, all of which were direct hits. Stopper Dittel stabilized the defense, Fritzsche conducted the attack on the left wing and stormed the young Becker in 36 matches and scored 19 goals.

Striker Engelbert Kraus moved to Munich in 1860 and Sigfried Held and Georg Tripp should provide new impetus in the Kickers attack. After the 8th Round Offenbach led the table with 14:2 points ahead of Kassel and Munich, each with 12:4 points to. After the preliminary round of the OFC was but with 25:13 points to fourth place. The two defeats against the later relegated BC Augsburg and Borussia Fulda suggested as particularly negative impact. In the second half of Kassel, Munich and Offenbach came on each 25:13 points, and thus the seats were allocated for the promotion round: Hessen Kassel and Bayern Munich took part, Kickers Offenbach ( Hermann Nuber, Siegfried guest), Schwaben Augsburg ( Kurt Haseneder ) and SSV Reutlingen ( coach Georg Wurzer ) had to deal with the ranks of three to five satisfied.
