[1], the official magazine of the Belgian chess federation, gives the content of the tables above, but none of the detailed results nor any games. It seems that there had been qualification tournaments in the different leagues. However, it seems that two teams from West Flanders qualified somehow. Moreover, [1] also claims there was no participating club from Brabant because that league “couldn’t find the title holder”!  All the more bizarre as the same issue of the same magazine claims that Cercle Colle had won the Brabant interclub championship.

Wanted

  • The individual results.
  • All the games.
