Forerunners
The FIGC introduced a third-level national football championship for the first time following the reform of 1926.[2] The Northern Lower Directory, the fascist Authority ruling the league, introduced a national cup for the group winners.
In 1928 the fascists decided to allow the fully national Higher Directory to organize the third-level championship instead. A cup for the group winners, and promoted to newly-born Serie B, was maintained.
However, Italian tifosi showed a very little interest for this honorific cups, so they were discontinued for seventy years.[3]
