Greensboro High Point Winston Salem, NC, October 5, 2026 — The North Carolina High School Athletic Association (NCHSAA) has revealed the sites for its 2026 fall state championships. This announcement indicates that a number of these championship events will no longer be held in the Triad region.

The NCHSAA, the governing body for high school athletics in North Carolina, has finalized its selection of venues for the fall championships slated to take place in 2026. While specific details regarding which events will be relocated and their new destinations were not fully detailed in the initial announcement, the overall trend points to a geographical shift for certain competitions.

Historically, the Triad region has been a frequent host for various NCHSAA state championship events across different sports. The decision to move some of these competitions suggests a strategic reassessment of venue availability, logistics, or other factors by the association.

Further information regarding the precise nature of the relocations, including the specific sports affected and the new venues, is expected to be released by the NCHSAA. This change could impact student-athletes, coaches, families, and local economies that have benefited from hosting these tournaments.

The NCHSAA oversees championships for a wide array of sports contested by member high schools across the state. The timing of the announcement, well in advance of the 2026 season, allows for planning and preparation by all parties involved.
