NB: Due to limited preparation time, and in order to minimize expenditure, the N.A.V.U. (Nederlands Antilliaanse
Voetbal Unie / Dutch Antilles Football Union) decided to appoint either Aruba or Curaçao to represent the
Dutch Antilles in this tournament rather than select a combined Antilles team from both islands. The choice
between Aruba or Curaçao was made by drawing lots, which Aruba won; the Aruban squad was, however, reinforced
for the tournament with three players from Curaçao.
