From the third division A, Deinze qualified as winner of the periods 2 and 3, Hoogstraten and Coxyde qualified as 2nd and 4th placed teams in the final table. The first period was won by the champion Aalst.

The champion Woluwe had won periods 2 and 3. However, Bertrix did not apply for the remunerated football license and was replaced for the play-offs by Union, the 5th-placed team in the final table.
From the second division, Turnhout qualified for the second round of the play-off as the 16th-placed team.
