Draw number - taken from the order in which the crosstable was posted in BCM, April 1911, p151. It may not necessarily be the draw number (and even if it is, the pairing system used not known). Very few dates of games are available and no round numbers.

One of the included games is Colman 1-0 H.B. Uber. The latter did not take part in the tournament proper, but I think this game may have been played in a qualifying event.

This was William Ward's sixth City of London Championship title.
