Gladiator Open, 4-1-17, Elm Grove, WI [MS-22]

Post by MichaelFalk »

Dear coaches and players,

St. Mary's Visitation will be holding its seventh annual Gladiator Open on Saturday, April 1, 2017, at our school in Elm Grove, WI. It is open to students up to grade 8, it will be played on NAQT's MS-22, and it is a qualifier for MSNCT 2017.

We will play about 8 rounds of pyramidal tossups and three-part bonuses. We will play using NAQT rules, with the exception that halves will be untimed and will consist of ten tossup-bonus cycles. The entry fee is still $65 per team, with a $5 discount for a working buzzer system and a $10 discount for your B (and subsequent) teams.

Please arrive between 8:15 and 8:30 AM. After a brief rules meeting, we plan to start play at 8:45 AM. As usual, you will get an hour for lunch, and we hope the tournament will be concluded by 3:00 PM. SMV is easy to reach from interstate highways and local streets, whether you are coming from Wisconsin, Illinois, or elsewhere. You can contact me here or by email at mfalk at stmaryeg dot org to reserve spots.
