Notes

^a Many of these schools withdrew from TAS to form the Associated Independent Colleges after the 1998 competition season.[29]

^b Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, no aggregate school championships were awarded in swimming, cross country and athletics (limited individual events were contested only). Open premierships were only awarded for the first trimester sports.[30]
