This tournament was the first official championship organised by the P.S.S.I. since
Indonesia's independence. (There had been a tournament in
September 1950 at the occasion
of the re-establishment of the P.S.S.I. (Persatuan Sepakbola Seluruh Indonesia),
but it was haphazardly organised and is not considered official by the P.S.S.I.)
As in the colonial era, member entities of the national federation were not clubs but
city federations (some including surrounding areas), and the national championship
was contested between those. As such, this tournament can be seen as the successor
of the stedenwedstrijden organised in 1949
and 1950 by the "European"
V.U.V.S.I./I.S.N.I.S. federation, the successor
of the pre-war N.I.V.U., which was disbanded in 1951. Indeed, it was considered to be
so at the time, with the championships for Surabaja (Persibaja) in 1951 and 1952 acclaimed
as their third resp. fourth successive title wins (although Surabaja was represented
by the S.V.B. in 1949 and 1950). There also wasn't much change in the player pool used:
Saderan and Tee San Liong were part of all four championship winning squads.
Note that no "club-based" national championship was organised in Indonesia until the
establishment of the semi-professional Galatama league
in 1979.
NB: participants and cities given in contemporary spelling (i.e. before the 1972
spelling reform changing "dj" to "j" (e.g. Djakarta to Jakarta), "j" to "y"
(e.g. Surabaja to Surabaya) and "tj" to "c" (e.g. Tjirebon to Cirebon));
names of participating city/regional federations only specified if verified
from contemporary sources; otherwise only the city is given (e.g. Serang),
followed by the name of the local federation (between brackets and followed
by a question mark) as given in [PSS 80].

Notes:
thanks to their title, Persibaja Surabaja were automatically qualified for the
1952 final tournament; all other cities had to enter the qualifying stages;
the above title was considered the third successive one for Surabaja, implying
that the P.S.S.I. tournament was seen as the continuation of the tournament
organised by V.U.V.S.I./I.S.N.I.S. in 1949 and 1950;
after the 1951 P.S.S.I. congress which took place at the final tournament in
Djakarta, the P.S.S.I. reportedly had 43 member federations.
