Blue Hen Invitational XVI - 3/22 (Newark, DE)

Post by mastaloo »

The University of Delaware Academic Competition Club is pleased to announce Blue Hen Invitational XVI, which will take place on Saturday, March 22. We will be using NAQT IS set 134.

Fees:
First Team: $70
Subsequent Teams: $60
Buzzer System: -$5/ each
Experienced Moderator: -$10/ each

Checks should be written out to Academic Competition Club (U of DE). Payment may be made the morning of the event, or mailed to an address which I can give the day of the tournament.

Location and Timing: We will hold the tournament on our campus in Newark, DE. Registration will take place in Kirkbride 100 (the circular building next to Trabant), and games will take place in Purnell Hall (an adjacent building). I attached a campus map below for convenience:

Registration will begin at 8:00 in Kirkbride 100. The opening meeting will then begin at 8:45, and round 1 should begin at 9:00. We hope to finish the tournament by 5:00 at the latest.

For those who are driving, your best parking option is probably the Trabant University Center garage, which can also be found on the map. From there, it's only a short walk to Kirkbride. Parking should only cost $10 for the day.

For lunch, teams may go to the food court at the nearby Trabant Student Center, or other Newark establishments along Main Street (highly recommended).

To register, send an email to [email protected] listing the school name and the number of teams, buzzers, staffers you will be bringing, and an emergency contact number. Hope to see you there!

Field (max 24 teams): (# of teams/buzzers/staffers)
Newark Charter: 4/0/0
Manheim Township: 4/0/0
Pennsville Memorial: 2/0/0
Caravel: 1/0/0
C. Milton Wright: 1/1/1
Caesar Rodney: 1/?/2

Manheim Township won both finals spots with their A and B teams making it. We didn't actually end up playing the final though. I'll have stats posted soon.
