Notes
  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. Since extra time, aggregate score and the away goals rule was not used, a third match played on neutral ground decided the play-off.
