Venues
All home games of the clubs based in Mexico City were played at the Campo del Reforma Athletic Club in Mexico City. Only the home games of Pachuca AC took place in Pachuca.
Changes
From the previous season, which was only played between three teams, only the founding members Reforma Athletic Club (defending champions) and Pachuca Athletic Club (champions from 1905) were there. The British Club , champions from 1908 and also a founding member, had withdrawn from the league (probably due to a lack of staff) and would no longer be involved in the future. While all of the aforementioned teams were dominated by British players, Club México, founded in 1910 by local Mexicans, rejoined the league after a one-year break and won its first and only championship title that season. Club España , founded by Spaniards living in Mexico , was there for the first time. Although it only finished last in its first season, over the next few years it developed into the strongest and most successful team in the league that existed until 1943 . The Rovers Football Club, founded by British football pioneer Percy Clifford , made another debut .
Season course
The first game took place on October 6, 1912 between Rovers FC and Club España and was won 3-0 by the British. The last encounter was held on January 12, 1913 between Clifford's first club Reforma AC and his current club Rovers FC and ended with a 1-0 victory for Reforma AC.
