1917-18 Austrian football championship

The 1917-18 Austrian football championship was organized by the Lower Austrian Football Association. Only teams from Vienna and the Vienna suburbs were allowed to take part. Clubs from the crown lands had no opportunity to take part in the championship. Promotion and relegation was suspended during the war years.

The championship in the Erste Klasse was played by 10 teams. They met twice during the entire playing year. Floridsdorfer AC celebrated its first and only Austrian championship title this season. Due to the suspended relegation, the ASV Hertha  managed to stay in the top division. This was  the third time in a row for this reason alone.
