Trebuchet

The Hoplite division is open to students in grades K-8. Teams of students work together to build a trebuchet using a provided kit. On competition day, they launch their trebuchets in McAlister Fieldhouse.

Note – More information about Hoplite kits will be available in the coming weeks as the vendor we have used in the past is no longer in business. The “Kit” section of the rules will be updated as soon as we have a better sense of what the kit will look like.

The Centurion division is open to middle, high school, and university students as well as adults. These teams will design and build trebuchets within the confines of the stated rules. They will launch their trebuchets on The Citadel parade grounds.

Note – The launch station rules have changed this year. Please read carefully.
