Overview
[edit]After the conclusion of the1954–55 season,the Oberliga was supposed to be played exclusively in the summer months, as was the standard in theSoviet Union.As it was deemed impractical to not hold a competition for almost a year (the 1954-55 season had ended in April, the 1956 season was planned to begin in March) a transition championship was played. 14 clubs competed, but neither a champion was determined, nor was any club relegated.[6]
