The Catalan football championship was the most important football competition in Catalonia in the first half of the 20th century.

In December 1900 Alfons Macaya, the president of Hispania AC, offered a trophy (the Copa Macaya) to be contested by several teams from the Championship of Catalonia. It was played between 1901 and 1940 and was cancelled during Franco's dictatorship.

In 1901 Hispania AC became the first Catalan champions after winning the inaugural Copa Macaya. The following season, 1901-02, saw FC Barcelona win the title, their first ever trophy. During the 1902-03 season two rival competitions were organised with Club Espanyol winning the Copa Macaya and FC Barcelona winning the Copa Barcelona. After 1903 the championship was organised by the Football Associació de Catalunya and it became known as the Campionat de Catalunya. The winners also began to represent Catalonia in the Copa del Rey. By 1917 the league had turned professional and included a second division.

In 1928 three Catalan clubs - FC Barcelona, RCD Espanyol and CE Europa - became founder members of La Liga and the Campionat de Catalunya gradually began to decline in importance. However during the Spanish Civil War, La Liga was suspended. Clubs in the Republican area of Spain, competed in the Mediterranean League. This competition was made up of teams mainly from Catalonia and the Levante and in 1937 FC Barcelona emerged as champions. During the 1937-38 season the Republican area was reduced even further in size. However a Lliga Catalana featuring exclusively Catalan clubs was organised. In effective two Catalan championships, both won by FC Barcelona, were played out over the same season.
