YOUR ENTRY — THE MYSTERY BAG
Entry to the Mystery Bag Tournament is a gift, not a fee.
1. Pick up something worth $5 or more
from The Warehouse, Kmart, a two dollar shop, or anywhere similar. No food. Pop it in a brown paper bag and drop it off at the centre by Wednesday 10 September.
2. What counts:
-
Stationery (pens, notebooks, sticky notes)
-
A small game, puzzle, or card deck
-
A small toy or novelty item
-
Anything fun and useful for someone your age
-
No food please
3. On the night
All bags go into the centre of the court. Every player picks one and takes it home — you won't know what's inside until you open it.
TOURNAMENT FORMAT
How The Tournament Works
It’s a two-hour event at the end of each term. You play singles for the first hour and doubles for the second. Everyone plays the whole time with breaks in between — there’s no knockout. The teams, and players who score the most points across the night wins.
