Real Madrid also played in the Torneo de Campeones, a competition involving the six teams that had previously won the Copa del Rey. However, the competition was played with a make shift schedule and the teams had been scheduled to play each other in a double round-robin format, however all matches could not be played, and some teams including Real Madrid only played 9 matches. The Torneo de Campeones served as a rehearsal for the establishment of La Liga, the first national football league in Spain, the following season.
