The 1944-45 season was greatly influenced by the events of World War II. Thus, while hockey was still played, it was only with a number of restrictions enforced.

Due to nighttime blackouts, all games were required to take place during daylight hours. Travel restrictions imposed made staging a national championship an impossibility. Thus, only county-level competitions were arranged, known as Zimní hry (Winter Games).

In Prague, were the competition was known as the Metropolitan Championship, there were 83 registered teams divided into 20 separate groups. No promotion or relegation took place between the various levels.

The elite class of the Metropolitan Championship was divided into two groups of five teams apiece. A final "Tournament of Four" (Turnaj čtyř) featuring teams from both groups was contested, it featured the top teams from Group A and B, but also the third and fifth teams from Group B. It appears other higher-place teams either declined/were unable to participate in the final tournament.

The Winter Games staged in Kladno County saw 61 teams, divided into 14 groups, participate. Unlike in Prague, the teams were grouped according to the town/village they hailed from. The strongest group was Group A, which featured teams that had played in the top-level regional group the previous year. Other top teams, SK Viktoria New Straseci and HC Nesuchyně, were placed in a different group for geographic reasons.

Other Winter Games divisions included the North (24 teams), South (29 teams), East (14 teams), and Northeast (31 teams).
