First of all because CEV ranking doesn't give us spots in ECL and then the teams don't have enough money to play ECL. Vilsbiburg wants to play in ECL in some years if they have enough money and a good enough team, but in general German clubs see European competitions as not so important and mainly a financial problem.

Augsburg's big boss is Schalal Habib (http://schalal.com/), though I couldn't find out what exactly is his business...
