Champions | Novese 1st title |
← 1920–21 |
The 1921–22 Prima Categoria season was won by Novese.
During the summer of 1921, a dispute between the Federazione Italiana Giuoco Calcio (FIGC) and the largest teams within the league arose. The teams asked for a reduction of the number of participants in the 1a Divisione.
Vittorio Pozzo developed a plan to accommodate the teams' requests, however, after a vote the plan was not passed; the smaller clubs feared that they would disappear if such a reduction was introduced.
This led to the creation of a new Italian football federation, the Confederazione Calcistica Italiana (CCI), who organised the 1921–22 Prima Divisione that ran concurrent to the FIGC championship.
This separation, however, only lasted one season and the following summer FIGC accepted a reduction in the league participants.
The 1921-22 FIGC winner was U.S. Novese.
Regulation
Tuscany was added to the main championship as the sixth region. The regional FAs remained with 48 clubs. The preliminary regional phase was the bulk of the tournament, with even twelve matchdays and regular regional football champions, while the following national phase was reduced to a spring tournament of two little groups and a final.
The main tournament was completely divided in six independent sections, and each region had its own football champions that joined the national championship.
Teams
Consequently to the controversy with the secessionist clubs, the Regional FAs quite respected the promotion rules. Only two clubs were added to the six rightful winners of the lower secondary regional tournaments.
