Tournament Schedule

2025-2026 Qualifying Tournaments

Important Notes

  • Schools MUST submit a school authorization letter from an appropriate representative from their institution that meets AMCA guidelines. Once the authorization letter is approved by the AMCA, the AMCA will provide the point of contact at the school with the password necessary to complete the annual AMCA member school registration. Member school registration must occur before any teams from that school may register for AMCA qualifying tournaments. Upon completion of the annual registration, schools will be given a password to access the qualifying tournament registration page. Attempting to register a team for a qualifying tournament prior to completion of the annual AMCA school registration may result in disqualification of a school or team from competition.

  • The fee for all regional qualifying tournaments will be $200 per 2-student team.

Regional Tournaments

Week 1: October 25 - October 26

Week 2: October 31 - November 1

Week 3: November 7 - November 9

* Due to the need to equalize the number at each PRONT and to maximize student participation, teams winning bids from the Albany regional will be split.  Teams placing first-sixth, will earn bids to the Liberty PRONT and teams placing seventh and eighth will go to University of California Law at San Francisco.  If this process results in a school at this regional to go to two different PRONTs, the AMCA will make an effort to ensure that the school’s teams go to a single PRONT.

Week 5: November 21 - November 23

Week 4: November 14 - November 16

Preliminary Round of the National Tournament (PRONT)
