This tournament united the four founding clubs of the Belgian chess federation on the initiative of the CÉ Brussels. Brussels and Antwerp won in the first two rounds, making the match between Liège and Ghent largely irrelevant; probably this was the reason Liège forfeited. I do not know the detailed results of two of the matches, so the results below are not complete. They also do not include forfeits. There does not seem to have been a fixed board order.
