Script Submission 2026

Opens: Friday, February 13, 2026 at noon PST
Closes: Friday, February 27, 2026 at noon PST

ALL scripts must be submitted by February 27, 2026 at noon PST. NOTE: Extended submission to 1159pm, Friday February 27, 2026

No scripts will be accepted after this date, and the student will be dropped from the event with no refund.

Below you will see which scripts are due. You will see what day and time you submitted a script, and the status of each script submitted.

Important:

Scripts must be submitted on the StoaHub account of the person who completed the registration for the tournament.  This is generally the parent's account, not the student's account.

Both the student and the parent must sign the Script Submission forms; the form must have the correct tournament and the correct date. All signatures must be signed in ink and a scan of the wet signature uploaded.  Typed signatures will not be accepted.

How to Submit Scripts Electronically

 Checking approval status:

This same page is where you will:

• Receive confirmation of an approved script.
• See whether your script has been returned for revisions needed.  Notes from the reviewer will be included with the script.  You will have three opportunities to make corrections per event (initial submission + 3 corrections).  If your script is returned for corrections, complete any requirements promptly and resubmit within 24 hours.  If after the final resubmission, the script still needs corrections, no additional resubmissions will be allowed.  The event entry will be dropped.
• Upload revised scripts in the Script Submission Revision section.
• Have the opportunity to chat with the reviewer concerning any questions you may have.  

Remember to check here DAILY to see if revisions are needed.
