The 1905 Prima Categoria was the eighth edition of the Italian Football Championship and the second since the re-brand to Prima Categoria. The Italian football championship was won that year for the first time by Juventus.
Regulation
Following the 1905 affiliation to FIFA, the Italian Football Federation implemented new regulations to its championship that year. The contest again contained 2 clubs from each of the 3 Northern Italian regions of Liguria, Lombardy and Piedmont. However, home and away matches replaced the previous one-leg format used in the regional games of the competition. The championship was then decided from a round robin contest of the 3 regional winners.
