2011–12 Division 1 season (Swedish ice hockey)

Format

The first half of the regular season started with six groups, with eight teams in groups A and B, and ten teams in the other groups. The teams played three or four matches against the other teams in their group, resulting in a first half of 21, 27 or 28 matches.

After new years, the teams were regrouped according to their first-half performance. The top four teams from each group formed three new groups, called Allettan Norra ("North", from groups A and B), Allettan Mellan ("Central", from groups C and D) and Allettan Södra ("South", from groups E and F). The teams that didn't qualify for Allettan played a continuation series with the remaining teams in their original groups.

At the conclusion of the regular season in February, the lowest-ranked teams from the continuation groups were forced to play qualifiers against the best Division 2 teams to retain their spots in Division 1 for the following season. Meanwhile, the top teams from each of the continuation groups, along with the top four teams from each of the Allettan groups, qualified for a playoff. The four surviving teams at the end of the playoffs participated in the 2012 HockeyAllsvenskan in order to compete for promotion to Sweden's second-tier league HockeyAllsvenskan against that league's two teams with the worst records in 2011–12.[2]
