Germany
In German, yo-yo clubs are referred to as Fahrstuhlmannschaften (lit. lift teams or elevator teams). Arminia Bielefeld and 1. FC Nuremberg have been promoted or relegated 15 times between the first-tier Bundesliga and the second-tier 2. Bundesliga. VfL Bochum, Karlsruher SC and MSV Duisburg with 11 moves each are also considered to be yo-yo clubs in German club football, as well as Hansa Rostock (16 moves) and Union Berlin (12) if the league system in the former East Germany is included in the statistics.
