The 2008 Google U.S. Puzzle Championship will be Saturday June 14, lasting approximately 2 1/2 hours. Go to the 2008 registration page to sign up for the next championship; also try the practice test, and see the rules for more information.

The U.S. and Canadian puzzle teams will be selected based largely on the results of this championship.

Participation is open to puzzle solvers from all over the world and may be used by other countries -- by prior arrangements with their team organizers -- to select some or all of their team members.
