Yemen - List of Champions


Football championships were played in the British colony of Aden (at the time as Aden Settlement an administrative part of British India) since at least 1934, when local side Al-Ittihad Al-Mohammadi (nowadays called Al-Tilal) made its first appearance in the Rozario Cup, whose other entrants included Al-Husseini, the Jojoom Al-Layl club of Crater, Al-Mawaledah and Bambot of Ma'alla, and clubs from Sheikh Othman (presumably including Al-Wahda) and Al-Tawahi.
