Competition Rules .
'Competitions are held often for which  members may submit a maximum of 3 slides and up to 6 print images, with a maximum of 3 in any one of the print divisions [this is expanded to 9 print images spread across any 3 divisions for Print & Slide of the Year Competition]. 

These competitions comprise:
"OPEN" COMPETITIONS:
The images submitted may be of any subject.

 "SET SUBJECT" COMPETITIONS: 
Some months have a subject set for images. A description of the set subject is set out in the syllabus. On such months there is also always an open competition running concurrently. Members spread their entries over both sections, that is either two "open" and one "set" or vice versa.

OAKLEIGH TROPHY COMPETITION: 
Three competitions each year are designated as "trophy competitions"- members' scores in each of the divisions, large print, small print and slides are totalled to determine the "Oakleigh trophy" winners for that year.

 MIDYEAR COMPETITION:
The midyear competition is self contained and gives members the choice of four set topics from which to choose their three entries. Trophies are awarded on the night of ' competition for the member with the highest total in each division.

PRINT AND SLIDE OF THE YEAR Entries for this competition MUST have already been exhibited in an Oakleigh Camera  Club competition during the current calendar  year. Note that the large print section is divided into monochrome and colour for this competition and workers may submit up to 3 images into each of these, as well as 3 into one of the small print divisions
