The cup was named the Swaythling Cup because it was named after the Dowager Lady Swaythling (the mother of Ivor Montagu) who presented the trophy to the English Table Tennis Association in 1926.[3]

Hungary defeated Austria 5-4 in a play off for the gold medal following the fact that they tied with five wins each in the main competition. The winning team consisted of Roland Jacobi, Zoltán Mechlovits, Béla von Kehrling and Daniel Pecsi.
