In the 1966–67 season, the competition was replaced by the Turkish Basketball Super League (BSL).
On April 25, 1955, the last game of the championship was Fenerbahçe against Galatasaray at Spor Sergi Sarayı.
Therefore, the last game was very important for both Galatasaray and Modaspor since the champion would be determined by total point difference.
Nevertheless, the Federation of Sports declared that such behavior of the Fenerbahçe officials would not be acceptable and there were two domestic champions, Galatasaray and Modaspor, in that year.
The tournament was organized by the Turkish Basketball Federation (TBF) to select a club that would represent Turkey in the 1967–68 FIBA European Champions Cup.
