After huge growth over the past few seasons, we are excited to announce that the ICHSA is expanding again in the upcoming 2017 season!
Thanks to a record number of applicants, we are introducing quarterfinal rounds to the Great Lakes, South and Southwest regions, with plans to add quarterfinal rounds to all ICHSA regions in the coming seasons.
The new tournament structure will include 8 regions: Great Lakes, Mid-Atlantic, Midwest, Northeast, Northwest, South, Southwest, and West. All regions except for the Northwest and West will all have quarterfinal rounds, where the top two or three groups from each quarterfinal will move on to the regional semifinal. The top group from each semifinal will advance to the ICHSA Finals.
Events will begin in mid-January and continue through early April. Tickets for most quarterfinal and semifinal rounds go on sale on December 1. Follow us on Facebook and Twitter for a reminder! Please remember that many events do sell out in advance, so we recommend picking up tickets in advance of the show.
Please see our placements for the 2017 ICHSA below. If you applied and don’t see your name on the list below or if you have any questions about your placement, please contact Andrea Poole at [email protected].
Congratulations to our accepted groups, and welcome to the 12th season of the ICHSA!
Please note that the listings below were posted on November 15th, are subject to change, and will not be updated here if they do change. Please see our events page for up-to-date listings of our events and their participants. Thanks!
