Trigahex Tournaments

Trigahex tournaments are a fantastic way to engage students in strategic thinking, teamwork, and healthy competition. Teachers can host competitions within their own class or expand the event to include an entire year level. The format is flexible — students can compete individually (in games of 2 or 3 players) or in teams (with 4 or 6 players).

Tips for Teachers

  • 1. Demo session

    Play a quick round with 2 students in front of the class.

  • 2. Encourage student referees

    Older students can help younger students run their games.

  • 3. Keep a Leaderboard

    visible in the classroom or school corridor to build excitement.

  • 4. Use Lunchtime clubs

    for regular play — easy to slot into existing programs.
