Just a reminder of the three Australian tournaments in the last half of 2009:

  • The ACT Go Championship will be held at the Australian National University by the Canberra Go Club on the twenty-fifth and twenty-sixth of July (last weekend of the inter-semester recess) as part of the 17th ANU Chess Festival. Neville Smythe posted the formal announcement to AusGo, and the Journal has a previous post with all the details up. The Chess Festival page also seems to list a “Go Exhibition” on Friday the twenty-fourth, at Garema Place, Civic. Does anyone know any more about this?
  • The 4th Korean Ambassador’s Cup in Sydney will be held at Sila Restaurant (161 Beamish Street, Campsie, phone 9718 1029) by the Sydney Ki-Won on Saturday the eighth of August. This is a one-day tournament and the open division will determine the Australian representative in the Korean Prime Minister’s Cup.
  • The 32nd Australian Championships will be held at the University of Melbourne by the MU-SPGO and Melbourne Go Lovers clubs on the twenty-sixth and twenty-seventh of September third and fourth of October (the first second weekend of mid-semester break). Six rounds of go in two days, with the open division deciding the Australian Champion, plus a BBQ lunch and a bonus AGA annual general meeting. I am entirely certain there will be a blog post very soon from the tournament announcers.

Also there’s the Brisbane Christmas pair go tournament coming up in December, and the ongoing Australia Room Friendly Series – Brisbane v Sydney fixture has better-than-even odds of happening in early July.
