Aragón Regional Championship

The Aragón Regional Championship was the top football competition in Aragón during the early years of the sport in the region, being unofficially organized as Campeonato de Aragón by Iberia SC from 1917 to 1922, and then officially as Campeonato Regional de Aragón by the Aragonese Football Federation from 1922 to 1940.

History
Background Football began taking root in the region around 1903, and, like most football societies of the time, it had prominent British components. Unlike other areas where new clubs were gradually germinating, the practice of football in Aragon was trimmed down to just collegiate activity and the increasingly sporadic matches in Zaragoza. Origins Since its founding, Iberia, known as "the Wasps" due to their black-and-white uniform, was the great engine and lighthouse of football in Aragon, leading the handful of existing clubs in the region to unofficially organize what was the first attempt at a regional tournament. Iberia then won the first official title after the creation of the regional Federation in 1923, following it up with six more titles in 1926, 1927, 1928, 1929, 1930, and 1931, two decades after the competition's foundation, losing at the first opportunity to FC Barcelona by a resounding, which shows the abyss between Aragonese football and that of the rest of the country at the time. In 1931, clubs from Aragón were added to the Gipuzkoa Championship and the name changed to the 'Gipuzkoa-Navarre-Aragón Combined Championship'; however, the Gipuzkoan teams remained dominant. In the 1934–35 seasons, the teams of Gipuzkoa and Navarre were integrated into the Basque Cup, while CD Logroño and the Aragón teams were integrated into a new 'Cantabria-Castile-Aragón Cup'. These tournaments were played for two years, until being interrupted by the outbreak of the Spanish Civil War. Like the others regional competitions, it held its final season in 1939–40 due to the suppression of all national regional championships following the consolidation of the national league and its lower divisions. ==Results==

In 1939, a precarious Aragon Championship was organized in the national zone with groups of military teams, including the Club Aviación Nacional, who merged shortly after with Atlético Madrid to give rise to Atlético Aviación, with the exception of the Real Zaragoza and the Huelva Sports Club, civil groups. New integration in Mancomunados Latest unofficial championships In recent editions, only different categories of amateur teams were competed, in which the champion of the first category was no longer eligible to qualify for the Spanish Cup. Starting in 1940, the dissolutions of the regional championships began throughout Spain to make room for the lower divisions in a process of restructuring the football championships at the national level. == Honors ==
