This initiative pits Bendigo Athletic Clubs against one another in each of the clubs' Invitation races plus the Glen Allen Memorial.

The first 25 placegetters in the Open and Intermediate categories for both genders earn points. First home gets 25 points, second - 24, third - 2 etc. AV members get a bonus point (to encourage AV registration). The points are tallied at each Invitation and totalled at the end of the year to establish the Champion Club in Bendigo. The winning club wins a trophy and first choice of date for their club's Invitation the following year.
