Scheiblingkirchen

USV Scheiblingkirchen-Warth are back in the Regionalliga Ost from 2026/27, returning to the third tier after Korneuburg failed to field a team for the promotion play-offs. The last time the club reached that level, in 2022/23, the stay lasted a single season: a 14th-place finish sent them straight back to the Landesliga.

That first promotion, in 2021/22, was won with a squad built almost entirely at home — roughly 80 per cent of the title-winning team had come through the club's own youth ranks, a pipeline that has run for more than two decades and is known locally as the Scheibling-Philosophy. Before that season, the club had spent its first 57 years, from 1950 to 2007, entirely in the bottom two divisions of Lower Austria. The one exception to sporting progression came in 2007/08, when the step up to the Gebietsliga was reached not through results but through a Spielgemeinschaft, a formal playing arrangement with SVg Pitten that let the side change class.

A run to the NÖFV-Cup title in 2017/18 sent Scheiblingkirchen into the ÖFB-Cup for the first time; the run ended in the opening round with a 0–4 defeat to SC Austria Lustenau. Matches are played at the Pittentalstadion, which holds 2,000. In the Regionalliga Ost, the nearest fixture on the map is SV Gloggnitz, the closest club geographically, though nothing here carries the weight of a fixed derby.

Match reports from the promotion years keep returning to one name: Philipp Friesenbichler, whose form for Scheiblingkirchen features repeatedly in the club's push through the Landesliga and into the third tier.
