History[]
Czechoslovakia period[]
Slovakia was part of Czechoslovakia (1918–1939 and 1945–1993). The first Slovak championship Zväzové Majstrovstvá Slovenska was played between Slovak teams (1925–1933); until 1935-36, no Slovak team played in the Czechoslovak (professional, state) league. During the German occupation of Czechoslovakia, Czech and Slovak clubs competed in their own, separate competitions.[2] The sole Slovak club in the league, ŠK Bratislava, was removed from the league and joined a new Slovak league, the Slovenská liga (1939–1945), in the newly independent Slovak Republic.
