Notes

  1. 1 2 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. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 Tie breaker is goal average.
  3. 1 2 Tie breaker is goal average and (probably) number of won matches.
  4. 1 2 Since extra time, aggregate score and the away goals rule was not used, a third match played on neutral ground decided the play-off.
  5. ↑ The first Norwegian goal is also reported as an own goal by Kurt Svanström.
