Australian Schools Teams Championships 2008
The Australian Schools Teams Championships 2008 was held on the 6th-7th of December, 2008 at Rostrevor College, Woodforde, Adelaide, SA. This year's field was very strong, however Scotch College managed to pull off the feat of winning every game except one draw.
We stayed in the boarding house of Rostrevor College, which was exceedingly clean and well organised, although I could not find internet access at the venue. There was also opportunity to play table tennis and squash. The food was also quite good, especially the sausage sizzle on the first night. The playing hall was spacious, allowing lots of room to move around. The organisers did a very professional job, especially considering the sudden withdrawal of the NT team.
On the last day, we also went off to the beach and with the help of a four-man team, we dug a lake called "Lake Eugene". It was implied that Nicholas Liu (1464) went to KFC, after mentioning that he really wanted to go there multiple times.
The Scotch Team (VIC) consisted of:
1. Zhigen Lin (2104)
2. Eugene Schön (1931)
3. Derek Yu (1810)
4. Nicholas Liu (1464)
5. Richard Owen (unr)
I won't mention who drew the game which prevented a full score.
Here are the standings:
Secondary Open
1st Scotch College, VIC
2nd Sydney Grammar, NSW
3rd Hawker College, ACT
Secondary Girls
1st Somerset College, QLD
2nd North Sydney Girls High School, NSW

Primary Open
