Notes

  1. No Swedish Champions title was awarded between the 192627 and 192930 seasons.
  2. 2.0 2.1 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 195354 season, and a championship was instead played to decide the best team in Norrland.
  3. 3.0 3.1 3.2 3.3 3.4 3.5 3.6 3.7 3.8 3.9 3.10 3.11 3.12 3.13 3.14 3.15 Tie breaker is goal average.
  4. 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. No teams from Uppsvenska Serien were allowed to be promoted to Allsvenskan, due to both geographic and economic reasons.
