New season and still nine teams, with a few new teams replacing dropped squads. Again, the season was split into two halves, with the winners of each half slated to face each other for a series to win the President's trophy. The Norwalk Bluefields (also called the Newfields) entered the circuit from the barnstorming world, and after splitting their first 2 games, rattled off 6 straight wins to claim the first half title. Norwalk would struggle in the second half while New London, West Haven and Bridgeport battled for the second half crown. All three clubs finished with 6 wins, but West Haven shut their season down so New London and Bridgeport would meet in a tie-breaking series.
New London dropped the opener of the best-of-3 series before besting the Springwoods in the next two matches to earn the right to play Norwalk for the Cup. Norwalk won the opener on the road, but dropped the next to (played in Bridgeport to handle larger attendance) to give the Cup to the Boats.
