Rising soph. I have to wonder how much high school science you’ve taken. I’m not discouraging you, but the more familiarity with scientific knowledge, the better your own founding/managing, and participation can be. So maybe you find some upperclassmen to get involved in the planning and formatting.

There’s no loss in trying, but often the right idea at the right time gets one further. Someone has to not only create this, but recruit and set up the training formats, get others interested enough to stay with it.

And please tell us there isn’t already another form of science competition or someting like Quiz Bowl that can cover science.
