General Info

Welcome to the Chattanooga Valley M.S. Full Volume Tournament!

Our school can be found at 847 Allgood Road in Flintstone, Georgia. It's nestled near the beautiful Lookout Mountain and is just a short drive from downtown Chattanooga, Tennessee. What makes our tournament unique is that it sits near the border of Tennessee and Alabama giving participants a special opportunity to compete with teams from other states.

Those who competed last year must certainly remember meeting SPOT, Boston Dynamics robotic dog, presented by Tennessee Valley Authority.   We are in the works in out-doing last years presentation.  So stay tuned and we will have updates as we approach the event.

Concessions will be provided at the event.

All participants are expected to complete the participant release form . (also available in Spanish)  Once per season covers all events.

Additional information regarding Notebooks, directions, campus maps, times, and food information will be emailed to registered teams closer to the tournament date.  In the meantime, if you have any questions, please email [email protected].
