The
Mountain Academic Competition Conference (or MACC) is an academic
competition consisting of matches. Each match consists of five rounds
for the five different teams (English, Math, Science, All-Around, and
History) and tests the skills of the teams on each subject.
Matches are
generally played until every school has a chance to compete against all
others, at which point they will all face off in a tournament.
Each
team is given a captain, co-captain, and a coach. The coaches should be
a teacher who is familiar with the subject of the team that they are
coaching and are responsible for picking the captains, setting dates for
practices, coaching the teams for the matches, and more. The captains
may be responsible for the coaches responsibilities if the coaches are
unable to do their job any point in time, though they generally speak
for the teams when answering the questions (with exceptions) and
introducing team members at each match. The co-captain may take on the
captain's responsibilities if they are unable to do their job at any
point. Every school has a MACC Coordinator; the one who helps to
set up the matches, makes sure that the teams get to our matches away
from home, and makes sure that everything is running smoothly.
