The CCI Italian Football Championship was formed during the summer of 1921, as a result of a dispute between the Federazione Italiana Giuoco Calcio and its strongest teams.

The teams asked for a reduction of the number of participants in the First Category. Vittorio Pozzo, the Italian football coach, developed a plan to accommodate the teams' requests but, after a vote, the plan did not pass: the smaller clubs feared that they would disappear if such a reduction was introduced.

This led to the creation of a new Italian football federation, the CCI (Italian Football Confederation, in Italian Confederazione Calcistica Italiana), that organized a championship concurrent with the FIGC championship.

This separation only lasted one season and the following summer, FIGC accepted the proposal to reduce the number of participants and subsequently recognized the CCI championship as an official scudetto, alongside their own 1921–22 Prima Categoria (FIGC) that ran concurrently.

The 1921-22 CCI winner was S.G. Pro Vercelli.
