2026 Australian Junior

 After a gap of 11 years, the Australian Junior Chess Championship returns to Canberra. There are around 400 entries this year, across 12 sections. The Under 18 (Championship section) has 31 players, with FM Reyaansh Chakrabarty the top seed. Although the event runs for 9 days, only the older age groups play all days. Tomorrow sees the U110 and Under 8 sections also start, but these sections are played over 3 days (with a faster time control).
