The newspaper Het nieuws van den dag voor Nederlandsch-Indië organised a league competition in the summer of 1904, open to clubs from Batavia (now Jakarta) and Meester Cornelis (now as Jatinegara part of modern Jakarta). This was the first ever league competition in Batavia. Among the clubs mentioned below, Vios and Sport were from Meester Cornelis, the others from Batavia.
In the following winter, the Droogdokbeker was organised, also as a double round robin open to clubs from Batavia and Meester Cornelis. This league-style competition was the first edition of a number of such tournaments (the first Batavia federation, the B.V.B., was founded in July 1906 and took over organisation starting from the third edition).
