Team line-ups for the 1931 Chess Olympiad
The tables show the line-up of the teams at the 1931 Chess Olympiad in Prague. The 19 participating teams played a full tournament with one game each against each other team. Each team had four regular players and a maximum of one substitute player. For the first time, the reported board order had to be adhered to. For each team the won, undecided and lost competitions as well as the scores are given. Then for each player his personal results follow. For the placement of the teams, the board points were the priority.
