Notes and References

  1. Teams from a large part of northern Sweden, approximately above the province of Medelpad, were not allowed to play in the national league system until the 1953 - 54 season, and a championship was instead played to decide the best team in Norrland.
  2. Tie breaker is (probably) head-to-head results.
