*: Schaakbulletin No.119/120 gives the result of this match as 7½-2½ for Leeuwarden. This is incompatible with the standings after round 3 as given in Schaakbulletin No.121. As they seem to be right for all other teams, I have assumed this match must really have ended 7-3 instead.

All information comes from pretty extensive coverage in [1]. This season of the official team championship of the Dutch Chess Federation was dominated by the heavily sponsored team of Rotterdam. Next to such players as Timman and Euwe, this team also included two Belgians. Their results were as follows (the ratings given are the FIDE ratings at the beginning of the competition):

1 Bödicker, Robert NED 1
3 Schenk, André NED 0
4 Nijdam, Wim NED 1
5 van Maaren, Henk NED 1
6 van Dijk, A G NED 0
7 Visser NED 1
8 van der Lijn, Dick NED ½
9 Odink, Karel NED 1
IM Boey, Jozef Martin BEL 2415

 

5 Piket, T NED 1
8 Sibbing, H A NED 1
9 van der Weide, Piet NED 2280 1
Rooze, Jan BEL 2355 3

Wanted

  • Almost all games.
  • Some confirmation of the crosstable would be nice.
