Wołyń District League Explained

See main article: Lower Level Football Leagues in Interwar Poland. Wołyń District League was a regional association football championship in the Wołyń Voivodeship, Poland (then Second Polish Republic) in 1930–1939.

The league was created in 1930 based on Volhynian competitions that in 1928–29 were under temporary administration of the Lwów District Football Union and teams that since 1922 competed in the Lublin District League.

The competitions were conducted on territory of modern West Ukraine which during the World War II was annexed by the Soviet Union and added to the Soviet Ukraine (Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic). The Wołyń District League is considered to be a football precursor of the Volyn Oblast Football Federation and Rivne Oblast Football Federation championships in the modern Ukraine.

Winners of the league qualified to regional play-offs, a winner of which was advancing to the newly formed National League.
