Team line-ups for the 1958 Chess Olympiad

The tables show the line-up of the teams at the 1958 Chess Olympiad in Munich . The 36 participating teams initially played in four preliminary round groups. Using the ranking determined there, three teams from each group qualified for the final groups A, B and C. Each team consisted of four regular players and a maximum of two substitute players. In the tables, the final position is given for each team, next to it is the final tournament reached. The team balances are listed separately for the preliminary and final round, whereas the individual balances of the players are shown in the sum of both tournament phases. For the placement of the teams, the board points were the priority.
