Innsbrucker EV was forced to withdraw from the championship as many of their players were unable to get enough time off work to travel to Vienna to play. A mild winter prevented games from being played in Innsbruck, where there was only an outdoor rink. The games Innsbruck did play in were not counted in the standings. No teams were relegated.

Group B

Scores

• EC KAC - Grazer SV - not played
• 1/6: Villacher SV - TSV Steyr 12:3

• 1/12: SV Leoben - EC KAC 5:3
• 1/19: SV Leoben - Villacher SV 8:5 (2:1, 0:2, 6:2)
• 1/27: Villacher SV - SV Leoben

Standings

	Team	GP	W	T	L	GF	GA	Pts
1.	SV Leoben	3	3	0	0	21	12	6

3.	EC KAC	2	0	0	2	7	13	0
4.	TSV Steyr	1	0	0	1	3	12	0

A mild winter led to a very limited playing schedule. TSV Steyr only played in one game, and Grazer SV did not appear in a single match. Given the situation, there was no relegation.
