Notes

1. There existed no regular promotion and relegation in the leagues at this time. Teams were excluded, relegated, admitted or promoted to a league on other bases than their finishing position the season before.
2. The league was abandoned, however the incomplete table is considered the final table. At least one match ended in a walkover for the home team, AIK–IFK Uppsala, this match has been counted as 0–0 but two points to the home team. The following two matches were not played: Djurgårdens IF against both AIK and IFK Uppsala.
3. Unknown tie breaker.
4. The league was probably abandoned as IS Göterna and Holmens IS withdrew.
5. IS Göterna and Holmens IS withdrew after not having played several of their planned matches.
6. The team was made up of players from the England amateur team, but the match is recorded in most sources as being played against the England national team.
