Tunisian Ligue Professionnelle 1
Encyclopedia
The CLP-1 or "Championnat de la Ligue Professionnelle 1" is the top division of the Fédération Tunisienne de Football
. It was created in 1921.
(FTF). The first edition opposed the three teams of "Racing club of Tunis", "Football club of Bizerte" and "Sporting of Ferryville" and the two school teams of the "Carnot College of Tunis" and the "Sadiki College".
It becomes official with the creation of the LTF in 1921 and its affiliation to the French federation of football. Until 1939, the title of champion is attributed as a result of dams between the regional champions. But from 1946–1947, a championship of "excellence" (national division) is created and competes nationally. In 1944-1945, 1945–1946 and 1952–1953, the championship is not disputed and is replaced by a criterium (a kind of tournament pools where participation is voluntary).
The current big clubs are created during this period: "Esperance Sportive de Tunis" (1919), "Club African" (1920), "Etoile Sportive du Sahel" (1925), "Club Athletic Bizertin" and "Club Sportif Sfaxien" (1928).
