This was the first time a Belgian team was sent to the olympiad of the International Braille Chess Association. It was a weak team, with none of the players figuring in any tournament of national importance. As a consequence, it finished on the last place without winning a single match. The quality of the games is low. Here are the round-by-round results. All information comes from [1].
