November 12 will be the Northern NJ History Bee and Bowl, returning to Seton Hall University in South Orange, NJ this year. NJ States will almost certainly be the Saturday of MLK weekend at Ridgewood. Everything else to follow - will post as dates come in. Overall, we expect to run a very similar calendar in the area in 2016-17 compared to 15-16 for NHBB.

by **BroNi** » Tue May 31, 2016 11:20 am

LIFT XVI will be held on Nov. 19th, 2016 at Kellenberg Mem HS, Uniondale, Long Island, NY. Questions will be from a NAQT IS set. It will be IS-160.

by **Dead Parrot** » Tue May 31, 2016 1:30 pm

The Rutgers Academic Team will host the Scarlet Knight Fall Tournament on October 29th on an NAQT A-set.

by **Snoopy** » Tue May 31, 2016 7:05 pm

Smithtown West will be hosting the Smithtown West Invitational Season Starter I (SWISS I) on September 17. We will tentatively be using an IS set.

by **Great Bustard** » Wed Jun 01, 2016 9:27 am

Confirming NJ NHBB States (projected field size of 90-105 teams!) at Ridgewood High School on Saturday, Jan. 14 (the usual weekend). This will as usual run on B Set and of course is open to out of state teams. The fall tournament at Torah Academy is likely to be either on December 4 or December 11, with December 18 being a less likely option, but a December date appears like it's happening for that at this point.

by **Zef** » Wed Jun 01, 2016 12:27 pm

I am Huzefa Diwan, Vice President of Columbia Quizbowl, and Columbia is pleased to claim these dates for events we will be holding next year with more detailed individual announcements coming up later: Columbia Fall on Oct 8, Columbia Winter on December 4, and Columbia Spring on March 4th.

by **Guybo** » Thu Jun 02, 2016 8:46 pm

I would expect Livingston HS to host again next year on an NAQT IS set on its usual week, Saturday, March 18th.

by **Large Adult Song** » Fri Jun 03, 2016 12:25 am

We will probably be hosting our Bergen Academies Spring Quizbowl Tournament on April 8th.

by **jasongg17** » Sun Jun 05, 2016 2:08 am

Princeton University Quiz Bowl is planning on holding PHSAT whatever-number-it-is-now on 9/24. We're still in very preliminary planning stages though.

by **Rob Celeste** » Mon Jun 06, 2016 7:14 am

Kings Park would like to host KPAQT VII on Saturday April 1, 2017 using an A level set.

by **sdk** » Mon Jun 06, 2016 10:50 am

High Tech would like to provisionally claim February 25 for QuBIT III (using the Maryland Fall set as with previous years); this date may be subject to change.

by **Ithaca Cricket Ump** » Thu Jun 09, 2016 12:11 pm

The tentative date for BrainBusters Fall V at Ithaca High School is November 19. It's the same date as LIST at Kellenberg, and will probably be held on the same question set, so teams located in between upstate New York and Long Island could choose one or the other to play at. LIST's field will probably be a bit stronger, although there are a couple of out-of-the-general-area powerhouses that are considering coming up and playing BB Fall.

East Brunswick High School (NJ) is planning to host two tournaments this coming year. We will be hosting our NAQT Funfest II on February 11th using and IS set, and we will be hosting our East Brunswick Bears (EBB) Pre-Nationals Tournament on May 6th, using a Division II SCT set.

by **notchole** » Mon Jun 13, 2016 11:24 am

Hunter will be running our usual two tournaments, SCOP Novice in the fall and Prison Bowl X (housewrite) in the spring. The dates have not gone through the final approval process but SCOP will very probably be October 15 and Prison Bowl will very probably be March 25.

by **notchole** » Tue Jun 14, 2016 3:41 pm

An update: Hunter's SCOP Novice tournament will actually be October 1, not October 15.

by **Rob Celeste** » Tue Jun 21, 2016 1:10 pm

Update: KPAQT VII will have to move its yearly tournament date earlier in the year to Saturday January 7, 2017. Thank you.

by **Great Bustard** » Wed Jun 22, 2016 10:28 am

NHBB's Lower Hudson tournament on C Set which drew over 50 teams last year will once again be in its usual spot - White Plains High School on Sat. December 17. I'll direct it.

by **cchiego** » Sat Jun 25, 2016 12:37 am

We're keeping track of PA tournaments here on GPQB and will cross-list nearby NJ tournaments. Eastern PA tournaments are definitely within driving distance (if not public transit) for many NJ/NY teams.

Keep in mind too that there are likely going to be a lot of new teams this year in the area and that fields should easily fill up with local teams (if you do your outreach), so I think it would be totally fine to have an NYC area tournament the same date as a Philly area tournament. I'm using the Raritan as a dividing line for invitation purposes.

by **High Dependency Unit** » Sun Jun 26, 2016 2:38 pm

Darien, CT will be hosting an NAQT A-set on November 5.

by **amosaad** » Fri Jul 29, 2016 8:07 pm

The Middlesex County Academy in Edison, NJ is planning to host the NAQT Middle School NJ Championship on March 25, 2017.

by **D is for Derek** » Wed Aug 03, 2016 11:16 pm

Slight change to the above statement of East Brunswick 'EBB' pre-nats tournament, it will be using a d2ICT set instead of a d2SCT. This will mean that it's slightly harder than nationals; and will serve as good practice and study materials for HSNCT.

by **samus149** » Tue Aug 09, 2016 10:20 pm

Cornell University is hosting a mirror of Harvard Fall Tournament XI on October 15, 2016.

by **Loungeact** » Thu Aug 25, 2016 2:49 pm

Columbia's Spring Tournament has been moved to March 4th.

by **jasongg17** » Sun Aug 28, 2016 8:21 pm

Quick update: PHSAT XXIV will happen on 9/24 on the Princeton campus using IS-158. This is the same set as the Smithtown West tournament, so schools from the NYC area should probably head there unless they really want to visit NJ or something. The scheduling person gets back tomorrow, so we should know exactly where on campus tomorrow as well. That's the primary reason I haven't posted anything else yet.

by **Snoopy** » Sun Aug 28, 2016 11:09 pm

I fully endorse the above post!

by **High Dependency Unit** » Thu Sep 08, 2016 8:58 pm

Darien Invitational II is now being held on November 12.

by **cchiego** » Sat Sep 17, 2016 9:39 am

Just wanted to remind NY and Jersey teams that Philly is like an hour's drive and there are tournaments coming up on October 8th (novice-only at Carver HS on the PA Novice set) and October 22nd (varsity and novice at Friends Select on IS-159A). Make your own Crossing of the Delaware and come visit our tournaments!

Does anyone know how to register for the Scarlet Knight tournament on October 29th?

I'm happy to announce that the Rutgers Academic Team will host the Scarlet Knight Winter Tournament on January 28th. We will be mirroring the Harvard Fall Tournament set.

by **sdk** » Tue Nov 08, 2016 7:45 pm

NHBB's got a new tournament in Erie County; we'll be running B Set at Iroquois HS in Elma on February 11th, which is updated in the above list.

Happy December, everybody!

by **Irreligion in Bangladesh** » Fri Dec 16, 2016 3:55 pm

Added the Hudson Valley Championships to the list in the post above.

Looking forward to seeing Hunter @ New Trier Varsity tomorrow, assuming the snow isn't too bad!

by **19.prasadm** » Sun Dec 18, 2016 5:33 pm

Lexington High School will be hosting ATHENA on April 1st. http://www.hsquizbowl.org/db/tournaments/4172/

by **D is for Derek** » Thu Jan 12, 2017 6:31 pm

The East Brunswick-run EBB tournament has been moved to April 29 from May 6.

by **anthonywang1999** » Thu Feb 09, 2017 9:32 pm

Wondering if there will be an NJ States for quiz bowl this year?

by **Dead Parrot** » Thu Feb 23, 2017 1:00 am

The Rutgers Academic Team will host the Scarlet Knight Spring Tournament on April 15th on NAQT IS-165A. A full announcement will be posted shortly.

Would it be possible to switch this to IS-166 and designate it as the state championship, given none exists so far?

Columbia's already using IS-166 for their spring tournament.

by **The Polebarn Hotel** » Sun Mar 05, 2017 2:42 pm

Ithaca High School will be hosting BrainBusters Spring on April 15, mirroring Prison Bowl.

Does anyone know when date claims start for '17-'18? Thanks.

It starts whenever someone makes the thread, I guess. I don't know who's doing that, but I would also like to see one created.

My apologies: I posted these on the wrong thread.
