ALL scripts MUST be submitted electronically by the above closure date AND approved on or before the approval deadline. NO LATE SCRIPTS WILL BE ACCEPTED. Scripts not in compliance by the approval deadline will be dropped from that event with no refund.

Our reviewers communicate via email, so it is imperative that you check your email frequently once you have submitted. You will only have 24 hours to make your necessary corrections and resubmit your script for approval. Please be respectful of this timeframe and prompt in working with your reviewer.

·       FastTrack Process: If you have received approvals from any Rocky Mountain Stoa tournaments (CO or NE), Little Tournament on the Prairie (KS), Green Country Challenge (OK), Legacy Competere (PA), or Camelback Classic (AZ), and have NOT made any changes to your script, then you are eligible for this process. Here is what you need to do:

1.     Make sure your submission form reflects this tournament: HAC.

2.     Click forward on the approval Email you wish to use.

3.     BEFORE sending, attach your entire submission packet in ONE PDF file.

4.     Edit your subject line so that it reads: HAC: Last Name, First Name_Event.

5.     Send your Email and attachment to: StoaScriptsCo@gmail.com

6.     You will receive an approval Email from one of our reviewers.

Please do not send in a FastTrack submission until March 22, 2025,

when our submission officially opens.

 

 

·       Standard Process: If you do not have an approval from any of the above listed tournaments OR you have made changes to your script, this is the process you will use. Read on for all the details.
