The first league or semi-officially also the first General government Hockey League (Czech: 1. celostátní hokejová league , Slovak: 1. celoštátna hokejová league shortly CSHL ) was from 1936 to 1993 the highest Czechoslovak league in hockey that the title of the Czechoslovak ice hockey champions played out . Below the first league in 1953 with the second league introduced the second division. There were promotions and relegations between the 1st and 2nd league, with the promoted and relegated players being determined either directly or via relegation games. In the course of the dissolution of Czechoslovakia and the formation of Slovakia and the Czech Republic , the Slovak and Czech extra leagues emerged from the joint league .
history
The 1st league was created in 1936 from the championship of the countries of the Bohemian Crown (Mistrovství zemí Koruny české) , which was played before the First World War . The serial champion of this Czech championship was SK Slavia Praha , who won the title in 1909, 1911 and 1912.
The first game of the first division was played on January 3, 1937 between the ČSK Vítkovice and AC Sparta Prague . In addition to these two clubs, five more belonged to the new league: LTC Prague , AC Stadion České Budějovice , HC Tatry Poprad , Troppauer EV Opava , SK Slavia Prague and BK Mladá Boleslav . After a total of seven match days, the first champions of the league were determined: LTC Prague.
The top division in ice hockey changed its name several times during its existence:
- 1936/37 - 1937/38 and 1945/46 - 1948/49 Slovak: Štátna liga , Czech: Státní liga (German: Staatsliga )
- 1949/50 Slovak: Celoštátna majstrovská súťaž , Czech: Celostátní mistrovská soutěž (German: Nationwide championship competition )
- 1950/51 Slovak: Celoštátné majstrovstvo , Czech Celostátní mistrovství (German: National Championship )
- 1951/52 - 1955/56 Slovak: Majstrovstvo republiky , Czech: Mistrovství republiky (German: Championship of the Republic )
- 1956/57 - 1992/93 Slovak: 1st division , Czech: 1st division (German: 1st division )
In the 1938/39 season there was only one torso championship. During the Second World War and the defeat of Czechoslovakia, the Mistrovství Čech a Moravy / Národní liga in the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia and the Slovenská liga in the Slovak Republic were played in parallel . In 1944/45 the championship practically did not take place.
After 1945, the ice hockey infrastructure was significantly improved with the construction of artificial ice stadiums, so that many clubs were created and new members were added to the league. This also increased the number of season games, which led to the sport becoming more professional.
In the mid-1960s, the league stabilized in terms of number of participants and mode before play-offs were introduced for the first time in the early 1970s . However, the league quickly reverted to the previous game mode. In 1980 in Czechoslovakia, if there was a tie after 60 minutes of playing time, an extension with sudden death or subsequent penalty shoot-out was established. From the 1993/94 season, the Czech Republic and Slovakia each have the extra league as separate championships.
