Football in Czechoslovakia was one of the most popular sports during that nation's existence, and continues to be popular in both of the nations that followed, the Czech Republic and in Slovakia.[2]
On 26 March 1922, the Czechoslovak Football Federation (Československá associace footballová) was founded.[3] It consisted of the Czechoslovak Football Association (Československý svaz footballový), the German Football Association, the Hungarian Football Association, the Jewish Confederation and the Polish Association. On 20 May 1923, the Czechoslovak Football Federation was admitted to FIFA.
