The Golden Gavel Classic is a nationwide mock trial competition with premier judging.

And while a team will walk away at the end of the weekend with their very own Golden Gavel—declaring a champion isn’t really our goal. From the way we draft our case problem, to the way we pair our rounds, to the reduced cost of attendance, the Golden Gavel classic is designed specifically to facilitate competitor growth.

We want to bring people together to become the best.
