history
On February 27, 1912, the Peruana de Fútbol League was constituted with clubs from the capital Lima and the port city of Callao located in front of this . This hosted the Campeonato Peruano championship until 1921 . As a result of disputes within the league, the current association was founded in 1922, which in 1926 revived the championship competition. In 1951 the championship was professionalized. Participation in this has been open to associations from all over the country since 1965.
