Lazio 1915-16

Roman 1st Category League: Lazio did register but then pulled out probably due to the fact that half the team had been called up to fight in World War I.

Roman 2nd Category League: Not all the results are known but the Biancocelesti did win this league. It was made up of second elevens from Fortitudo, Pro Roma, Juventus Roma and Audace, plus first teams from Lazio, Flaminia, Laziale and Tiberis. The Biancocelesti came first with 24 points ahead of Fortitudo 23 and Juventus Roma 18.

Coppa di Natale: Lazio tried to compete but the lack of available players made them less competitive. They arrived third since Pro Roma was disqualified.
