Sydney SWAT won the Professional championship, Sydney Cyndicate won Semi-Professional, Furious won Amateur and The Wobbles won Novice.[1][2]

The published Hustlers and Vengeance sequences contain only three figures, so their entries have not been assigned to four individual rounds. The contemporary Round 3 report independently confirms Hustlers' third-place Amateur finish.[1][2]
The asterisks attached to Omega and Blitzkreig are reproduced as published; their meaning is not explained in the archived season report.[1]
Novice
[edit]The championship summary names The Wobbles as champion, Blitzkreig as runner-up and Signal 1 third. The detailed points list omits Blitzkreig, so the following table is not a complete final classification.[1]
