Norrländska Mästerskapet
Football tournament
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Norrländska Mästerskapet was a Swedish football cup held to decide the Champions of Norrland. As teams from a large part of northern Sweden, approximately above the province of Medelpad, were not allowed to play in the Swedish league system until the 1952–53 season, the best team from the region was instead decided by this tournament, which was played between 1925 and 1953.

In 1925–1929, the competition was for district champions of the northern Swedish football district associations.[1] The first edition was played in June 1925 with Strands IF beating Bodens BK, 2–1 in Hudiksvall.[2] Starting in 1936, it became a play-off tournament for winners of regional series in the area.[1]
