1940 Jessimine League

The 1940 Jessimine League was the first season of the Jessimine League, a league competition for teams in the Southern and South-East regions of Mindano. The league was created as a response to the AFGM's decision to ban professional teams from competing in the Mulryne Cup, which had seen its prestige decline over the last five seasons. Twelve teams took part in the inaugural season, eight from the Southern region and four from the South-East. The league was considered to be a strong competition, perhaps the biggest league in the country, from its formation - all but three Mulryne Cups had been won by Jessimine League clubs, as well as two of the four National Cups.

The eventual champions were Camdin City F.C., who were beginning to build a reputation as one of Mindano's most fearsome sides.
