The four regional divisions played out a home-and-away round to determined the top four clubs who entered the promotion round. The promotion round groups were mixed, with one club each from the four divisions. The bottom four entered a relegation round with the last club from there being relegated to the Bezirksliga.
The winner of each of the four promotion rounds entered the Landesliga finals. The two winners of the semi-finals were promoted to the Bayernliga. Because two teams from the Bayernliga were promoted to the Oberliga and none relegated, an additional two promotion spots became available and in the end all four finalists were promoted.
