1963 Championnat National 1 final

Given the geographical distribution of clubs across the country, formerly divided into three departments under the French colonial administration, each league took charge of organizing competitions autonomously, encouraged by the Ministry of Youth and Sports.

During this first season, there were therefore qualifiers in the three major regions of the country in order to designate the participants in the final national tournament to award the first title of Algerian Football Champion.

A tournament is held between the winners of these regional criteriums, a sort of "play-off" whose goal is to identify the first "Champion of Algeria football."

In the first meeting, Bône little bow face to Algiers by the rule of the many corners obtained in a scoreless game after a goal everywhere.

The two losers of the semifinals fought for third place, and that's USM Bône who prevailed over the SCM Oran by four goals to one.
