Hungary - List of Champions

No teams from outside Budapest played in the league until 1926. Starting with the 1907/08 season, regional championships were organised, whose winners played off for the "Vid�ki Bajnoks�g", the "provincial championship". The winners of that playoff were entitled to challenge the Budapest league champions for the Hungarian championship; however, such a match was to be played in Budapest, which was a financial burden on the provincial clubs; so only one such playoff took place before the First World War (in 1909), and the result was unequivocal. In 1924/25, a tournament involving the top-2 of the Budapest league and the 6 regional champions was played for the Hungarin championship; in 1925/26, the Budapest runners-up did not enter. In all seasons in which an all-Hungarian final was played, it was won by the winners of the Budapest league.
