Last years' Interhemispheric challenge saw New Zealand taking most of the honours, however BOA put in a good performance with a first and third place in two of the three pools.  There will be a single 22 board match this year. Because of the time zones differences, for the UK, Ireland and Iceland this will be at 9am BST on the morning of Tuesday 4th July  2023. In each match the "Down Under" players will sit N/S the "Up Over" players E/W.

There will be three pools of players. The top 20 tables will comprise the expert pool (A) you will have a NGS of Jack or higher. Club players will be in the middle pool (B). Newcomers to the game and learners (having played more than 6 months) will be in their own pool (C). In the newcomers pool we will play 2 fewer boards, so that we all end at the same time. Please select your pool when registering.

The event is free. The results will not be processed by the EBU as NGS is not feasible with so many non-EBU players. Match results will be posted to the BOA website.
