South Carolina 2017-18

[thomasgnd]

Greetings, folks!

We want to build a robust quizbowl schedule for teams from the state of South Carolina for the coming year. Please message me at [email protected] with questions/concerns and/or requests to have your event added.

The more tournaments we have in the state, the better, so consider running an event. If you need help knowing how to get started, who to contact for questions, etc., email me. We want you in the rotation. Tournaments taking place in South Carolina are in blue, with the exception of the NAQT state championship, whose date and location is TBD, which is listed in red.

I have also included a few out-of-state events that may be of particular interest to SC teams. Each event that falls in this category indicates the state in which it will occur and is listed in green.

It's going to be a fantastic year in 2017-18!

Thanks for doing this thread, coach. USC is thinking of doing September 30th as the date for a fall tournament with NAQT questions. Please post here or message me if you have other ideas. I'd like to get the announcement out in the next week or 2.

Southside is looking to do a Harvard mirror in the fall (mid-November likely).

The email for the JVN Commerce CLAUSE is now [email protected]. Make sure to make the change ASAP. Thanks!

ADD ON: Also the date may have to change because we are hosting SATs that day. I'll make an official change/no change very soon.

NHBB is hoping to have a SC tournament or two this year but don't have a host yet.

For western teams, you may be interested in our January 15 (MLK Day) tournament just across the border north of Augusta at Greenbrier High
