This was the first year that there were three divisions in the national interclubs. In fact, there were five groups in total: the Honours division, 2A, 2B, 3A, and 3B. The two second divisions were won by SK Eupen ’47 and CÉ Thibaut, respectively. They had to play a match to determine which side was to take SK Groeninge’s place.

The individual results of six rounds (but which ones?) were found in [1] and can be found here. Together with the final standings from [2], which include match and board points, this allowed me to reconstruct the crosstable above. The individual results do not include forfeits. Moreover, the game Baert-Beyen is included as a draw, even though it was a reglementary 1-0 because Baert was playing on the wrong board.
