Novese was founded in 1919 and entered Italian football history by winning the F.I.G.C. 1921–22 Italian Football Championship, a season when there were two cocurrent national leagues in Italian football: the Federazione Italiana Giuoco Calcio (FIGC) and the breakaway Confederazione Calcistica Italiana (CCI), who organised the 1921–22 Prima Divisione, which included the major clubs of Northern Italy at the time.[2][3]
