The format for this competition will consist of two tiers for nominations.
The Champion Schools Trophy Competition and the Regional Pennants competition.
Teams looking for a less competitive environment may wish to opt for the Regional Pennants competition which only run in Term 2 (Term 3 for juniors). Locally nominated groups will compete in four Perth metropolitan regions (North West, North East, South West, South East) with a round robin group stage. If there are more than 2 groups per region then a play-off final will occur. The winner of the group or the final will be declared Regional Champion. A Regional Pennant Champion may then opt to join the knock out rounds of the Shield Competition.
Champion Schools will operate in group stages with the top boys teams and top girls teams moving into the Champion Schools knockout rounds in Term 3 (Term 4 for juniors). The remaining teams from the group stages will then move into the Shield knockout rounds in Term 3 (Term 4 for juniors). There will be set dates for Semi Final and Grand Finals for both of these competitions at the end of Term 3 (Term 4 for juniors).
In summary:
Champions Schools and Shield Trophy:Â Teams have been placed in groups of 4, 5 or 6 geographically wherever possible. On occasion a group of 3 or 7 maybe necessary.
