Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ 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.
  2. ^ a b c d e f g h i j k l m n Tie breaker is goal average.
  3. ^ a b Tie breaker is goal average and (probably) number of won matches.
  4. ^ a b 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.
