Participants of theategoria e Parë 1946 (red = group A, green = group B)
In Group A, the previous year's finalists met Vllaznia Shkoder and 17 Nëntori Tirana each other. As in the championship final of 1945, defending champion Vllaznia sovereignly retained the upper hand with four points ahead of Tirana, also because Shkodra was able to win all games. The capital city club from Tirana won in all games except for the games against Vllaznia. Besa Kavaja came in third of the season, a long way behind the first two , followed by Skënderbeu Korça , Ylli i Kuq Durrës and Apolonia Fier . Kavaja and Fier withdrew for the coming season.
In the B season, Flamurtari Vlora moved into the final in a tight decision . After completing the group games on Bashkimi Elbasan and four on newcomer Erzeni Shijak , the club was one point ahead . Shqiponja Gjirokastra , Spartaku Kuçova and Tomori Berat , who, as in the previous year, finished last in his group, placed on the other ranks . The two newcomers Erzeni Shijak and Spartaku Kuçova no longer registered for the coming season.
The two group leaders Vllaznia Shkodra and Flamurtari Vlora determined the champions in the first and second leg. As expected, Vllaznia won 2-0 in Vlora with a double from Pal Mirashi and finally secured the title of Albanian champions for the second time in a row with a 3-0 at home. For Vlora, the runner-up title was the greatest success in the club's history.
