Located in Maryland, and headquartered in Montgomery County, the Pilgrimage Homeschool Division C team was started in 2013 by Mr. West Coile fed from a second Division C team in 2013, and a Division A team in 2022. Pilgrimage draws homeschool students from Montgomery and Howard Counties and has been competitive on the state-level for over a decade.
Pilgrimage has always been a homeschool team that has no other varsity teams and its Division A, B, and C teams are centrally managed. The three teams' head coach since 2021 has been Mrs Cheryl L. Booth who coaches the Division B team directly. Pilgrimage's Assistant Coach for Division C has been Maria Kinsinger since 2022.
