Dutch Competition

After splitting up the First Division West into two groups Ajax started poorly in the First Division West I, the first home game was last. In the 9 following games Ajax won each home game, but lost each away game, until in the 11th game, away against Feyenoord, Ajax was able to win. Also afterwards Ajax was unable to get consistent good results so that it finished in the mid of the table, further away from new division champion Feyenoord than from the bottom position. Feyenoord went on to win the champions competition.

Beker

There was no Dutch Cup competition during this season.

Lineup

Because new players had to be fitted into the team and Ajax was also confronted with injuries again, especially in the attack there were quite some changes.

Unknown whether Joop Pelser was still the captain. In comparison to the previous season again a number of changes, this time also in the midfield, where Joop Pelser was also replaced by Joop Rijnders (7) a number of matches. Also the following players played official matches: Henk Asbeek Brusse (9), Jan van Heeswijk (6), Hein Delsen (5), Kick Geudeker (5), André de Kruijff, Sjaak Hoogland (1), Gerard Deen (1) and Wim Addicks (1).
