- In East-Flanders, Drongen took over the promotion spot of champions Munkzwalm, who did not ask for a license and were hence ineligible for promotion.

- One extra team was promoted from West-Flanders: Lauwe.
- Winner of the interprovincial round on VV side: De Kempen.
- Winners of the interprovincial round on ACFF side: Buzet, Evere, Libramont, Loyers, Tilff and R.A.FC Oppagne-Weris
