Senior Team Challenge
A pilot event for a competition similar to the Team Challenge, aimed at 16-18 year olds, was launched in the Autumn of 2007. The format is much the same, with a limitation of 2 year 13 (upper sixth-form) pupils per team. There were 19 regional heats held in November, with the winning team from each heat going to a national final held in London on 7 February 2008, with the winners being Torquay Boys' Grammar School. The 2009 final was held in February, with the winners this time being Westminster School. The 2010 final was held in February, and Westminster School retained their title.
On February 2, 2011, the Harrow School team consisting of Kirby Lam (captain), Takehiro Fujita, Clement Woo and Richard Chen won the 2011 final, after scoring 178/180 in the main competition itself.
