Great Valley (PA) Middle School Tournament (12/09/2017)

Post by bmccauley »

Great Valley High School is pleased to announce the 2017 GVMST to be hosted on December 9, 2017 at Great Valley High School. This is a great opportunity to give your middle school students an opportunity to compete in general knowledge quiz bowl and introduce them to a pyramidal question format. We will be offering food on-site for lunch or teams may explore the option of going to nearby restaurants if they choose. Please contact Bernard McCauley at [email protected] for more information regarding the tournament.


Tournament Facts:
Registration Fee: $60 for first team, $50 for subsequent teams
New to Quiz Bowl: $40 for each team (Trying to get new teams from PA in particular)
Registration Discounts: -$5 for buzzer system, -$5 for experienced moderators
Minimum Fee (per team—not school): $40
Question Set: NAQT Middle School #23


We will be tentatively capping the field at 24 teams due to limits on buzzers and moderators at this time. We will expand if we get enough staffing/interest, which (at least staffing on our end) is actually quite likely.
