The QAHA also eliminated the ban on players from Bankers and Commercial league teams to play senior. The Montreal AAA was turned down by the league when it applied for a franchise. They attempted to form a rival league with Montreal St Francois Xavier and teams from Brockville and Cornwall. It was not successful. The Montreal Victorias, acnowledged as the strongest team, wanted to get out of a contract they had with the Mount Royal Arena in order to play with the rest of the league at the brand-new Montreal Forum. The arena turned down the Victorias' offer of $2000.00. This threatened the existence of the league, since the other teams threatened to drop out if the Victorias were not in. Finally the arena gave in and the way was clear for the league to play all its games at the Forum. On January 21, the league was renamed the Senior Group of the Quebec Amateur Hockey Association. It operated under that name in the following season.
