The SpVgg Plattling is a German association football club from the town of Plattling, Bavaria. From 1950 onwards, the club has played for many seasons in the third division Fußball-Bayernliga, the last time in 1994. The club spent all 24 seasons at this level and was promoted to the league on six occasions. When not playing in the Bayernliga, Plattling spent most of its time after 1963 in the Landesliga Bayern-Mitte but was relegated from this league, too in 1995 and has since not been able to return to this level. The club has also qualified for the German Cup on four occasions, reaching the third round in 1992–93 as its best result. History The SpVgg Plattling was formed after the First World War in 1919 and played in the lower Bavarian amateur leagues for the first three decades, interrupted by the Second World War, when the club was unable to field a team because of a lack of players caused by the war. Plattling was able to restart its football team in September 1945 and entered a more successful era. Plattling first made an appearance on Bavarian state level in 1950, when it won its league and finished first out of six teams in the promotion round and gained entry to the Amateurliga Bayern. As a newcomer, the team lasted for only one season at this level, suffering immediate relegation. The team won the 2nd Amateurliga Lower Bavaria the following year and was once more successful in the promotion round, making a more permanent return to the Bayernliga in 1952. After a ninth place in 1953, the league was split and Plattling became part of the southern division. The next ten seasons in this league saw mixed results, dropping as low as 13th in 1959 but also climbing to second spot in 1962. In 1956, the team was only one point away from the championship, the year after only one point from relegation. A fourth place in 1963 was enough to qualify the team for the reunified Bavarian league the following year. The first three seasons in the new league, Plattling finished just above the three relegation ranks but in 1967 it came last and had to drop down to the tier-four Landesliga Bayern-Mitte. After three years in the Landesliga, the club even briefly dropped to Bezirksliga level but recovered immediately, took out the Landesliga championship in 1976 and
