The ACT Championship date has been changed in order to fit in better with the National and NSW Championship.

The ACT Championship will now be held 27&28 August 2005. The venue is expected to be the Jugiong area (subject to confirmation). This will allow those travelling to have 2 state championships as lead up trials to the national. Stay tuned for more details as they come to hand.
