==Western Championship==
In the west, there was a Poznan qualifier set between AZS and KL, with the winner facing TKS Torun (Pomeranian champions) for the regional title. 
;Poznan Qualifier
*KL Poznan - AZS Poznan 1:0 (1:0, 0:0, 0:0) 
;Final
TKS Torun and KL Poznan faced off for the title. Both teams ended up arriving in Krynica for the national championship as attempts to complete the regional competition were unsuccessful. The result was inconclusive in one of the games, and the second game had to be stopped with 10 minutes remaining due to an audience incursion onto the ice. The PZHL thus arranged for a 10 minute game to be played between TKS and KLP in Krynica, and if a winner did not emerge, a full game would then take place. Neither team scored in the 10 minute playoff, so the full match was then played.
*TKS Torun - KL Poznan 3:0 (1:0, 1:0, 1:0)
TKS Torun advanced to play in the national championship.
==Wilno Championship==
There were only two teams - AZS Vilnius and Pogon Vilnius. In the event of a lack of ice in Vilnius, it was decided that AZS would automatically qualify for the final tournament.
