The Delaware Fall Open was a high school quizbowl tournament held every December (usually the second Saturday) at Wilmington Charter. It has been succeeded by a tournament known as CSWIFT (Charter School of Wilmington Invitational Fall Tournament), held in November.

Tournament History

The tournament was first held in 2000 when Bill Tressler was a faculty member at the Sanford School. When Bill moved to Wilmington Charter, the tournament came with him, but Delaware Fall Open III was hosted by Salesianum.

Charter's team continued to host tournaments after Tressler's departure in June 2010.

This is one of the few tournaments in the Mid-Atlantic that offers a JV division. Any freshman or sophomore is eligible to play JV. A junior or senior who played no high school quizbowl before the current academic year is also eligible.

Participants include D.C., Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania teams.
