Mongolia - List of Champions

The first national championship was apparently held in 1955. In 1946, the silver jubilee festival of the people's revolution (the first Spartakiad) included a football tournament, and it appears this was the main competition until the mid-fifties. In 1955 not only the first ever national championship was organised, but also the first ever edition of the Ulaanbaatar City champiponship.
A (semi)professional league was first organised in 1996; until then, the championship was decided by playoffs following a preliminary round between province ("aimak") or district teams as well as institutional sides (army, police, etc.) and an intermediate group stage.

[*1] as it was mentioned on the occasion of their championship in 1970 that Aldar had
       won the championship "many times", they presumably won several titles between
       1956 and 1963.
[*2] the 2006 championship was not held as a normal league but in two stages of four-team
       groups due to reconstruction of the only football field in Mongolia and therefore
       does not count as an official MFF League championhip.
    
NB: Khudulmur ("Labour") won four titles up to and including 1989 (all listed above).
