Rules: The tournament will use IHSSBCA rules. In brief: 5-on-5, powers, no negs, rebounding bonuses, tossup-bonus-cycle tiebreakers, roster cap of 8.
Money: The base fee is $55 for the first team from each school, and $50 for each subsequent team. There are no discounts, but teams are expected to bring whatever functional buzzer systems they have available, and are implored to provide any staffers they are able (even if it is necessary that the staffer stay with the team he or she coaches). All checks are to be made out to Fenwick High School Scholastic Bowl , and payment must be received at or before the tournament. If financial issues stand between your team and attending this tournament, contact me to discuss possible arrangements.
Qualification: The top teams from Illinois at this tournament will qualify for the NAQT State Championship Tournament, whose date and location will be announced soon. The top teams from any state will qualify for the NAQT High School National Championship Tournament, which will be held May 29–31 in Rosemont.
