Hello Ohio Quizbowl!

A fellow teacher and I at Bio-Med Science Academy in Rootstown are looking to start a Quiz Bowl team this year at our school in Portage County. Is there a specific person (or people) in the area we should contact or do we just begin reaching out to nearby schools to have meets? Are there any other steps to registering a team?

I've already started hoarding and bookmarking all of the resources I'm coming across on here and other quiz bowl sites, but if anyone has anything they'd like to point out, I'd also appreciate that too.

Thank you so much for your help!

Hello!

I was hoping you guys would join the activity soon. I help run the Portage county competition along with the folks from the (former) Portage ESC. Email me (quizboss at att dot net) and I'll pass along the relevant contact information for the Portage league as well as other competitions; you can find info about the other stuff in the tournament announcements part of this forum.
