Academic Challenge does not require physical strength. Instead, it is a test of intelligence and mental endurance, whose participants are students from ten Southern New Jersey high schools. This ten school inter-scholastic league includes Collingswood, Eastern, Edgewood, Haddon Township, Haddon Heights, Haddonfield, Highland, Sterling, Triton and West Deptford. The competition lasts nine weeks (Jan. 4 - Feb. 24), with only one match per day, and five separate meets on that day. At the end of the nine weeks, the teams must wait for the next set of matches. On the 3rd of March, the playoffs start at Eastern High School.
