1921-22 Italian Football Championship (F.I.G.C.)

During the Summer of 1921, a dispute between the Federazione Italiana Giuoco Calcio (FIGC) and the main teams arose. The teams asked for a reduction of the number of participants in the 1a Divisione.

Vittorio Pozzo developed a plan to accommodate the teams' requests, but, after a vote, the plan was not passed: the smaller clubs feared that they would disappear if such a reduction was introduced.

This led to the creation of a new Italian football federation, the C.C.I. (Confederazione Calcistica Italiana), that organized a championship concurrent to the FIGC's one.

This separation, anyway, lasted only one season and the following Summer FIGC accepted to reduce the participants.

The FIGC winner was U.S. Novese.

Treviso and Viareggio were admitted to the 1a Categoria.
