History
Founded in 1996 by Adam Farb and Deke Sharon, the ICCA tournament takes place from January through April in six regions: West, Midwest, South, Mid-Atlantic, Northeast, and Europe.
The ICCA has been presented by Varsity Vocals since 1999, when it was purchased by Don Gooding (a cappella.com, Contemporary A Cappella Publishing).
In 2005, the success of the ICCA produced a spin-off competition, the International Championship of High School A Cappella (ICHSA).

“I believe my ardour for invention springs from his loins. I can’t say that the brassiere will ever take as great a place in history as the steamboat, but I did invent it.”

“There has never been in history another such culture as the Western civilization M a culture which has practiced the belief that the physical and social environment of man is subject to rational manipulation and that history is subject to the will and action of man; whereas central to the traditional cultures of the rivals of Western civilization, those of Africa and Asia, is a belief that it is environment that dominates man.”
—Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)
“It’s not the sentiments of men which make history but their actions.”
—Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
