ABF Event Calendar for 2013 - (updated April 18, 2013)

The ABF Event Calendar covers ABF events in Zone 7, major congresses and some overseas events where there are Australian representatives competing.

ABF Calendar Review The ABF has been reviewing the calendar of National tournaments to see if it is possible to improve the balance of events through the year. NB. South Australia and NSW have agreed to swap dates, so the 2013 ANC will be held in South Australia, and NSW will be the host in 2014.

Please contact the webmaster at if any details are missing or incorrect.
