New Jersey Tournament History

Since the first Pyramidal high school-level tournament held in New Jersey in 1993, dozens of tournaments have come and gone. Below is a listing of all known events and their field sizes from year to year.

X means the tournament was not held in a given year.

? means the results are unknown, or it is unsure if a tournament was held in that year.

P means the results are pending, or the tournament is scheduled to occur but has not yet taken place.

The years listed are the first year in a competition season; so, 1993 would denote the 1993-1994 season, and so on.

If there are multiple entries in a cell, it means multiple competitions were held under that name in the same year.

Tournaments in bold are currently active.
