Event table notes

Event data
Name: School of Arts - Darlinghurst Club Match, 1st class
Place: Sydney
Start date: June 1868
End date: June 1868
 
Notes:
The reports in the Sydney Morning Herald and Empire give only totals of the players in this and the second class event, but it is clear from the scores that each of the first class representatives of the School of Arts Club must have played 3 games against each of the first class representatives of the Darlinghurst Club. While the exact crosstable is not clear, the totals against the three opponents are all that are needed for rating purposes.
