The 1939-40 Romanian Hockey League season was the 14th season of the Romanian Championship. Rapid Bucharest won the championship.[1]

Season overview

The telephone company ceased sponsorship of all sports on November 15, 1939, marking the demise of Telefon Club Bucharest. Alexandru Botez and Paul Anastasiu, two of TCR's leaders, joined the new club, Rapid Bucharest.

Many Polish refugees, having fled the German Nazi invasion, had settled in Romania. There were some hockey players among them, who joined Romanian clubs. However, the federation barred them from being used in games. This led to heated debates.

Rapid Bucharest won their first and only championship by defeating Venus Bucharest in the final.

Final round

The final round was staged in Bucharest from January 31-February 5, 1940.
