National Championship

The national championship was staged from January 23-25, 1944, in Bucharest. Dragos Voda Cernauti withdrew from the championship on the grounds that the federation had initially stated the tournament would be played in Cernauti.

The director of the Venus Bucharest hockey club, Andrei Barbulescu, stated that his team should be declared national champions without facing Juventus, whom they had already defeated twice, again. The General Pompeius Demitrescu, president of the Venus sports club, decided the team should play the game against Juventus, for which 2000 spectators were expected.

Venus defeated Juventus for a third time and claimed the national championship after an easy victory over Universitatea Sibiu. Barbulescu was suspended for one year by the federation for "unsportsmanlike conduct".
