1st Annual Southern Meigs (Racine, Ohio) Middle School Quiz Bowl Tournament
You are invited to the 1st annual Southern Meigs Middle School Quiz Bowl Tournament @ Southern MS in Racine, Ohio on Saturday February 4th, 2017. Currently the field cap is 24 teams, but I would be willing to increase that if there is enough interest and I am able to secure enough classrooms & competent readers. This tournament will be a NAQT national qualifier, assuming at least 3 schools are represented. The top 15% of the teams in the tournament (rounded up to the nearest integer) will qualify for the MSNCT in Dallas, Texas on May 12th-14th, 2017. We will be using official NAQT rules (10 points per tossup, 15 points per tossup with power) with No Negatives or Bouncebacks. We will be using NAQT question set MS-20.
Check-in will begin at 8:15 A.M. and go until 8:45 A.M., with the first round of play to begin promptly at 9:00 A.M. Teams will be broken into preliminary brackets and will play a morning round robin. At the conclusion of morning play, the teams will be re-bracketed to play another round robin after lunch with similar teams. Every team will be guaranteed 8 rounds of play.
There will be a concession stand open for lunch in the cafetorium that will include hotdogs, pizza, chips, candy, etc. Proceeds from the concession stand will support our local Big Bend Youth Basketball League. There is also a Subway in town, if any of your parents would prefer to pickup food from there.
FEES: $50 per team
BUZZER DISCOUNT: -$5 per buzzer system
MODERATOR/READER DISCOUNT: -$5 per competent moderator
MINIMUM FEE (after discounts): $40 per team
**You may bring the registration fees with you the morning of the event.
