During the season, Newton AA and Hyde Park AA played a three-game series for the honor of silver cup that was bestowed upon the champion of the "suburban league", which had apparently disbanded the year prior, and needed to resolve the question of who would keep the silver trophy indefinitely. The cup would be given to whichever team managed to win two or more of the contests,[3] which would turn out to be the NAA, compiling a 2–0–1 record against the fellow athletic association.
