At this point there was no league championship in the modern sense, as the competition was held in a single-legged cup format, with participating clubs qualifying via regional playoffs entered by winners of six regional football sub-federations. Only the final was played over two legs.
The champions were 1. HÅ K GraÄanski from Zagreb, who beat SAÅ K from Sarajevo 5â3 in the final tie.
