1949 Goodall Cup

The first series was played from July 22-29, 1949. The competition for the Goodall Cup was staged as part of the second series from September 17-24, at the Sydney Glaciarium and the Ice Palais at Moore Park. The strength of the cup was reportedly halved as players from the breakaway Victorian Ice Hockey League (VIHL) were not allowed to participate.
