Jürgen Gelsdorf
Jürgen Gelsdorf (born 19 January 1953) is a German football coach and former player who is currently youth teams coordinator at Bayer 04 Leverkusen. Sporting career As a player For the 1972/73 season, 19-year-old junior soccer player Jürgen Gelsdorf joined Arminia Bielefeld from MSV Duisburg in the Regionalliga West. The "Alm" had to be rebuilt after its forced relegation from the Bundesliga in 1971/72. The team relied on talents like Hans-Jürgen Wloka (Borussia Mönchengladbach) and Bernd Wehmeyer (Bielefeld's own amateurs) and therefore also signed the talented defensive player Gelsdorf. Bielefeld did very badly in the last two rounds of the Regionalliga West (11th place 72/73; 14th place 73/74), but for Gelsdorf it brought competitive practice in 56 appearances with one goal. Improved by this, he also coped with the increased demands in the newly created 2nd Division North in the 1974-76 rounds. Arminia even played for promotion in 1974/75, and in 1975/76 they were ...

German Amateur Football Championship
The German amateur football championship was a national football competition in Germany organized by the German Football Association (German: Deutscher Fußball-Bund; DFB) and in existence from 1950 to 1998. History Overview The championship was established in 1950 as a counterpart to the German football championship, which was open only to the winners of the tier-one Oberligas. To qualify for the German amateur championship, a club had to play in the highest amateur league of its regional football federation. The majority of these leagues were tier-three leagues. Only in Niedersachsen, Bremen, Hamburg, Schleswig-Holstein and Berlin were these leagues set at the second level. From 1963, with the introduction of the Bundesliga, all these leagues became tier-three leagues, too. To qualify for the amateur championship, a club either had to win its highest local amateur league and then not to have to take part in any post-season promotion-round. A club could also decline to take pa ...

SC Westfalia Herne
SC Westfalia Herne is a German football club based in Herne, North Rhine-Westphalia. The club was founded on 13 June 1904 by the sons of the more well-heeled residents of the city as a rival to the worker-based club SV Sodingen. History After World War I and occupation of the Ruhr by the French in 1923, the club was dissolved, but still carried on unofficially. It was reconstituted in 1925 through fusion with ''Fortuna Herne'' to play as ''Westfalia Fortuna Herne''. The union was good for the club, which advanced to upper league play in 1930, and made it as far as the semi-finals in the national championship the next season. When German football was reorganized under the Third Reich, ''Herne'' was not selected for play in the first tier Gauliga Westfalen, but did manage to play their way into the premier circuit the next year. They competed at that level until the collapse of the league system at the end of World War II. After the war, ''Herne'' again found itself left out ...
