<p>I’d definitely like to find a homeschooling group or team that is fairly competitive. Do you know how I might find one in my area? </p>
<p>A good place to start a search for local homeschooling groups is the HSLDA website: [HSLDA</a> | Home School Organizations](<a href=“http://www.hslda.org/orgs/Default.aspx]HSLDA”>Group Search) You could also just google your city or county + homeschool and see what turns up.</p>
<p>As for organizations like Science Olympiad, you could also start at the state level. Contact the state organization (start here: [State</a> Websites | Science Olympiad](<a href=“http://soinc.org/state_websites]State”>State Websites | Science Olympiad)). Tell them your county of residence and ask if they know of any homeschooled teams. Maybe they can point you to an existing team. </p>
<p>If no homeschooled team exists for a competition in which you are interested, you can always start your own! </p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
