Lustenau and Bregenz celebrate the license for the 2nd league!
The football world in Vorarlberg can breathe a sigh of relief: Austria Lustenau and Schwarz-Weiß Bregenz have received approval for the coming season in Admiral 2nd league. This was reported by the Senate 5 of the Bundesliga on April 11, 2025, and both clubs can take part in the game operation of the 2nd division next season. The SCR Altach, also from Vorarlberg, receives the license for the Bundesliga.
Austria Lustenau plans to start the new season with a budget of 3.6 million euros. Managing Director Vincent Baur mentioned that challenges, such as a temporary stadium parade to Bregenz and the ongoing new stadium building on Schützengartenstrasse. These framework conditions will strongly influence the requirements for the association in the coming season.
license and protest options
A total of 33 clubs applied for the licenses in the Austro Liga. The decisions concern both the Admiral Bundesliga and the Admiral 2nd league. While most clubs were successful, FK Austria Vienna received no license for the third time in a row. This has far -reaching effects on the league and the future of the association.
The Senate 5 of the Bundesliga has also clarified that clubs without a license can protest within eight days. This also affects the East League team Stripfing, which for the time being does not receive a license. An ongoing procedure against FC Blau-Weiß Linz due to possible violations of license regulations could also cause unrest.
