Community College Championship Tournament
National Academic Quiz Tournaments ran its first national championship tournament purely for community colleges in the 2008-2009 competition year. Since then the Community College Championship Tournament (CCCT) has been held annually to name the best community college quiz bowl team in North America.
NAQT has named a community college national champion since 2002, but that determination had been made as part of its overall Division II competition at its Intercollegiate Championship Tournament. The CCCT is specifically for community colleges and allows more teams to participate in the championship.
Teams will qualify for the CCCT via Community College Sectional Championship Tournaments (CC SCTs) held nationwide in late January. The winner of each CC SCT will be invited to the championship along with additional teams based on a national comparison of their D-values.
The 2012 national championship will take place on February 24-25, 2012 at Gulf Coast State College in Panama City, Florida..
The results of the 2011 CCCT are available online. That tournament was held at Gulf Coast State College and won by Chipola College.
The top six teams from the CCCT qualified for the overall Division II collegiate championship that took place as part of the 2011 Intercollegiate Championship Tournament.
All two-year, junior, and community colleges are eligible to compete in NAQT's CC SCT and CCCT events.
