South Australian Champions
1868-1893 – H.Charlick
Henry Charlick [1845-1916] was acknowledged chess champion of South Australia for 25 years by common consent and by his pre-eminent ability. He confirmed this rank by winning the Australian title in Adelaide in 1887 and by taking second place the next year in Melbourne. State Championship tournaments began in 1894, after the foundation of the South Australian Chess Association in 1892, but Charlick never took part in these contests for the title he had relinquished.
