The Championship usually consisted of a single game, or a small tournament featuring 4-5 teams. The finals or final of the tournament featured qualifying teams, which earned the right to participate by virtue of a winning a regional competition, such as the Bohemian Championship, [[German Association Championship]] (tournament based not on geographical, but ethnic point of view), the [[Slovak Championship]] and the Moravian Championship. Due to the dominance of Prague-based teams, the best squad from the city was always included in the tournament.
