East Prussian Championship

The championship of the East German Skating Union was not decided due to protests. VfB Königsberg had initially won the championship, but VdS Tilsit filed a protest that they had used an ineligible (foreign) player.

The championship was set to be re-played, but Königsberg did not show up and in turn filed a counter-suit, while the competition was played without their presence. The dispute was not resolved and East Prussia was unable to send a team to compete in the national championship.
