 As the league champions, FC Ismaning, declined promotion for financial reasons, the runners-up FC Ingolstadt 04 II were directly promoted to the 2011–12 Regionalliga Süd.As Ismaning already announced during the winter break that it intended not apply for a Regionalliga licence, fears were voiced the competition could be affected negatively by this but the team continued its good form and took out the championship regardless.The three worst placed teams, SpVgg Bayreuth, SV Schalding-Heining and Freier TuS Regensburg were relegated to their respective Landesligas.
