Australian Schools Teams Championship – 2021

WA ASTC 2020 Hybrid Hub

Due to Australia’s current border issues across its States and Territories,
the ACF has decided to host the 2021 Australian Schools Teams Championships
as an online-hybrid event. The tournament will be held in a very similar
fashion to the 2020 ASTC and in-line with the instructions and regulations
available on the website:

ASTC-2021 Website

We are calling on all States and Territories to appoint State Organisers
and State Arbiters to manage their zone. The responsibilities of each of
these positions are available on the website. The State Organiser must
submit all their team information by the 24th of November.

Please use this form.

If you have any inquires or questions, please do not hesitate to contact me

Australian Schools Teams Championships – 2020

This year the ASTC will be using a time control of 30 minutes plus a 10 second increment per move per player for the game in order to cater for potential technical difficulties and time zones.

Since its inception, the Australian Schools Teams Championships has gone from strength to strength with many of Australia’s top junior boys and girls participating in the event.

The first ASTC tournament was first held in Sydney during December 1998, initially with Primary and Secondary Open divisions. In 1999, Primary and Secondary Girls divisions were added in order to encourage more girls to participate.

Each state and territory is entitled to enter one representative team per division in the four ASTC divisions. Typically, these teams are winners of their state or territory chess association endorsed finals or playoffs.
