Inter-school Matches 2023

Updated March 14th, 2023

Inter-School Competitions

The primary A Grade and Secondary Div 1 and Div 2 teams all have 5 players in each team, while the Primary B and C Grades and Secondary Div 3 only has 4 players per team.

Please note that the primary competitions at PAC will take place on Thursday afternoons, not Fridays,  in Term 2 –  5th & 19th May and the 2nd and 16th June. This means that the Primary A Grade, and the primary B and C Competitions held there will take place on the Thursdays which may prove a benefit or an hindrance to some schools.

There has been such a huge interest in chess in the past couple of years we are pleased to announce that we are offering a second venue for the Secondary Matches – Prince Alfred College – and this is on a Thursday night – the same dates as the Primary A Grade. It will be called the Div 2/Div 3 Competition and will have 4 players per team and at the end of the season, the Winning team will play a match against the Winning Div 2 team at the Chess Centre and the team that is at the top of the bottom half of the competition will have a match with the winning Div 3 team from the Chess Centre.
