Posted: Sat Dec 07, 2019 4:03 am
I am pleased to announce that the New England site of the NAQT Sectional Championship Tournament will take place on February 8, 2020.
LOCATION: This tournament will take place at MIT. Tournament games will take place in buildings 26, 34, and 36. Check-in will begin at 8:30 in 34-101 (located in building 34). A campus map may be found here.
GETTING TO MIT: MIT is easily accessible via the Boston T system by taking the Red Line to the Kendall/MIT stop. We recommend teams avoid driving if possible, as parking is very difficult to find on the MIT campus.
QUESTION SET: There are separate sets of Division I and Division II questions. Division II eligibility rules can be found here. Each game will be untimed with 11-question halves.
FEES:
Base fees: $145 for the first team from a school; $120 for second or subsequent teams
DISCOUNTS:
$10 discount per working buzzer system (must accommodate at least eight players)
$40 discount per experienced moderator
$20 discount (per team) for schools new to quizbowl (neither competed in nor hosted the SCT in 2018 or 2019)
$10 discount (per team) for teams that travel 200 or more miles one-way (distance measured from your campus to MIT by Google Maps)
Payment will be taken at check-in on February 8th. Please pay by cash or by a check made out to "MIT Quiz Bowl Team".
REGISTRATION: This tournament uses NAQT's online registration system. Register here.
