Türkiye Futbol Şampiyonası or Türkiye Futbol Birinciliği ( German Turkish Football Championship) was the top division in Turkish football from 1924 to 1951 . It was held for the first time by the Turkish Football Association in 1924 . The championship could not be held for the next two years due to insufficient funds. The clubs could not afford the travel expenses to the capital Ankara - where all games took place in the first two seasons. The second season was played in 1927 after the government financed the clubs' travel expenses. The third season took place a few years later in 1932. The championship was played for four years without interruption, only to be suspended again for four years.
During this period, however, the Millî Küme (German: National League) was introduced in Turkish football in 1937 . From 1940 both national championships existed simultaneously until 1950. The difference between the two competitions was the game mode. While the Millî Küme was played in league mode, the Turkish football champion was determined in the Türkiye Futbol Şampiyonası in the knockout system (cup system). In 1944 the Başbakanlık Kupası (German: Prime Minister's Cup) was introduced, which was held as a super cup between the two national champions until 1950 .
1951 was the last season of the competition. In the same year, Turkish football officially became professional. Then the championship was continued under the name Türkiye Amatör Futbol Şampiyonası (German Turkish Amateur Championship) with a completely different status. From this year on, only amateur teams took part and the championship was no longer the top division in Turkish football.
The most successful clubs are Fenerbahçe Istanbul and Harp Okulu Ankara , each with three titles.
Competition mode
The championship was generally held in the knockout system (cup system). The winner of each knockout round was usually determined in just one game, which was often set in a neutral place. If no decision was made after extra time, there was a replay, also on neutral ground. The champions of the local and regional leagues affiliated to the TFF were eligible to participate.
