The 1924 National Championship (Serbo-Croato-Slovenian: Državno prvenstvo 1924. / Државно првенство 1924.) held in the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes was the second nationwide domestic football competition. At this point there was no league championship in the modern sense as the competition was held in a single-legged cup format, with participating clubs qualifying via regional playoffs organised by regional football subfederations.
