The Uruguayan Championship 1905 was the fifth official championship of Uruguayan football history.

Overview

The tournament consisted of a two-wheel championship of all against all. It involved five teams, and the champion was C.U.R.C.C. after winning all matches played.

This year was tragically marked by the death of Nacional symbol footballers, Carlos and Bolivar Céspedes, due to the smallpox epidemic in June of that year. In turn, the lackluster performance of Albion hinted that the end was near for this institution, which did not fit with semi professional practices that began to appear in some institutions.
