We are excited to announce that alongside the SONY National Exhibition, PSNZ will once again host the PSNZ Interclub Competition, which is free to enter for all PSNZ-affiliated clubs. Outlined in the link, below, are the updated entry conditions for the interclub competition.
Entries for this competition will open at the same time as those for the SONY National Exhibition, starting at 9:00 AM on 10 February 2026, and will close at 5:00 PM on 11 March 2026.
