Notes

^ ^a ^b There existed no regular promotion and relegation in the national leagues at this time. Teams were excluded, relegated, admitted or promoted to a league on other bases than their finishing position the season before.
^ ^a ^b ^c ^d ^e ^f ^g ^h Tie breaker is goal average.
^ IFK Eskilstuna were punished by having their 3–1 win against IK Sleipner being counted as 0–0 and two points for IK Sleipner instead, because of an unknown reason.
^ IF Svea withdrew after nine rounds, their nine match results are not included in the table of the other teams. The last three matches they did not play were against Köpings IS, IFK Västerås and IFK Eskilstunda.
^ A final replay was played as the first final ended in a draw.
^ A trophy was presented in 1904, it would be awarded to the best team after ten tournaments. The 1913 tournament was the tenth, and after that, the extra final was played between the most recent winning team, IFK Göteborg, and the team with most wins, IFK Stockholm, to decide the winner of the trophy.
^ ^a ^b Djurgårdens IF replaced Mariebergs IK and Westermalms IF replaced IFK Stockholm, which should have played in the final, but Mariebergs IK instead played a match in the Corinthian Bowl on the day of the final and IFK Stockholm were prevented from playing.
^ 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.
