Eventually, this hurdle was dropped too, but the final decision was awarded to the individual Bezirke. Up to the fourth-lowest level, senior and reserve team can play at the same level, but not in the same league, higher than that reserve teams have to play one level below the senior side.<sup id="cite_ref-Spielordnung_6-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Spielordnung-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In between, in 2008, reserve sides lost their right to compete in the cup competitions.
