We are allowing all schools to register up to two teams, if you have a second team. If we have enough slots in January to invite a second team, we will extend an invitation at that time. The Registration/Cancellation Deadline is January 15, 2026.
We need a student runner from your school for each round. This means a person(s) from your team will gather all of the judges paperwork in a particular courtroom and run it to the tabulating room. Please note the added commitment in the registration form below.
