Campeonato Centro
The Campeonato Centro (German: center championship ) was a Spanish soccer club competition that was founded by the Madrid Association in 1902 and in which teams from various other central Spanish regions subsequently also took part. For a long time, the competition also served as a qualifying tournament for the Copa del Rey , which was held in cup mode and was the only competition in all of Spain until the Spanish Championship was founded in 1928. The Campeonato Centro was held for the last time in 1940 .
history
In the early years of Spanish club football, there was no national championship held in league mode, as the long journeys at that time were too time-consuming and costly for the clubs. Instead, there were numerous regional tournaments, the winners of which were allowed to participate in the Copa del Rey . In 1903, the regional association Federación Madrileña de Foot-Ball was founded in Madrid , and a city championship was held for the first time. The winner was Moderno FC, founded a year earlier (a club that merged with today's Real Madrid in 1904 ). In 1913 the associations from neighboring regions of Castile (Avila, Ciudad Real, Cuenca, Guadalajara, Segovia and Toledo) joined the association, it was renamed Federación Castellana de Fútbol , the tournament was named Campeonato Centro . From 1931 clubs from Aragon , Andalusia , La Rioja and Cantabria took part in the competition, which is why the name of the competition changed several times:
- 1931–1932 Campeonato Mancomunado Centro-Aragón
- 1932–1934 Campeonato Mancomunado Centro-Sur
- 1934–1936 Campeonato Mancomunado Castilla-Aragón
- 1939–1940 Campeonato Mancomunado del Centro
The introduction of the Spanish championship in the 1928/29 season devalued the regional championships in Spain, most of them, including the Campeonato Centro , were abolished in 1940. Only the Copa Catalunya is played in a different form to this day. The record champions of the Campeonato Centro are Real Madrid, with a total of 23 titles.
