[edit] Notes
- ^ a b 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.
- ^ a b Tie breaker is (probably) most scored goals.
- ^ a b c Since extra time, aggregate score and the away goals rule was not used, a third match played on neutral ground decided the play-off.
- ^ A final replay was played as the first final ended in a draw.
