Granite State Challenge

IT'S GO TIME!

Test Your GSC Smarts!

ARE YOU READY FOR THE CHALLENGE?

GRANITE STATE CHALLENGE is looking for high school teams to participate in one of the longest-running high school quiz shows on TV!

SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 2025, AT PLYMOUTH REGIONAL HIGH SCHOOL

This fall, NH high school teams of up to six students will gather to take a 100-question written test as a team at Plymouth Regional High School. The 14 top-scoring teams will advance to play on Granite State Challenge. Four teams that participate in Super Sunday but don't score in the top 14 and haven't played on Granite State Challenge in the past two seasons are randomly chosen to compete in two non-televised wild-card games. The two winning teams will go on to fill out the 16-team roster for the new season of Granite State Challenge.

CLICK HERE to register a team for SUPER SUNDAY on November 9, 2025.

Registration Deadline: Friday, October 24, 2025
