The Palestine League was divided into three regional divisions (Haifa, Jerusalem, Southern) with playoffs at the end of the season,[1] with the league winners and the Southern League runners-up qualifying for a championship playoff.
[2] The Haifa League was cancelled on 5 March 1942 [3] and a cup competition was played instead.
This meant that the two league winners, along with runner-up Maccabi Tel Aviv qualified to the championship playoff.
The championship playoff was won by Maccabi Tel Aviv.
[8] Next, Maccabi Rishon LeZion and Homenetmen Jerusalem drew their match 3–3,[9] but later Homenetmen chose to forfeit their matches against Maccabi Tel Aviv,[10][11] after which Homenetmen were ejected from the play-offs and Maccabi Tel Aviv was declared winner.
