MNCCS Academic Games Program was established in 2016-2017 school year by coach Ben Ye and Coach Shawn Zhang. With the helping from coaches, high school volunteers and parents, MNCCS AG team expanded from 11 players to about 80 players in grade 3-9 in recent years.  MNCCS Academic Games Program  encourages learning, cooperating, competing and focus on developing character and integrity in students. 

The MNCCS Academic Games team practice weekly form September to May throughout the school year. Additionally, the high school volunteers hold a week-long camp in the summer to prepare new players.

MNCCS Academic Games teams participant to compete on the state level with the Michigan League of Academic Games, and on the national level with Academic Games Leagues of America. Over the course of the year, students meet peers from a wide variety of backgrounds who share their interest in learning and academics.  Through healthy competition on the state and national levels, we believe that students can reach new levels of achievement together.

MNCCS AG team is one of the most decorated team in Michigan since 2017 in all the divisions we participate.  Our teams started to quality for national level since 2018 brought those thinker trophies back home since then.
