Format
The league was divided into four regional groups. In each region, the top teams qualified for a promotion round for the opportunity to be promoted to the Allsvenskan. The bottom teams in each group were forced to play in a relegation round in order to retain their spot in Division 1 for the following season. These were also conducted within each region.
