Northern League
[edit]Regular season
[edit]Udinese and Parma FC had been promoted from the Second Division.
Goal average was introduced eliminating the tie-breakers.
The Northern League decided to create the Serie A with 16 teams starting in 1926, so the last four teams of each group should be relegated.
