When the team became the champions of amateurs in Turkey, the Federation decided to form a second level national division. Next year ÇİY was included in the Second League.

ÇİY had participated at the preliminary round among amateur teams. The one-leg system was accepted up to quarterfinals, after which the two-leg elimination rule applied. After round 3, quarterfinals came. Galatasaray had been the champions of the first Turkish Cup. At finals they beat Fenerbahçe 2-1. ÇİY was eliminated at Round 2.[10] Since Galatasaray also won the league title, Fenerbahçe, as the finalists, became eligible for playing ECW Cup games the next year (1963-64).
