Fall 2020 COVID-19 Challenge starts Mon, Oct. 5

Post by bdavery »

Our COVID-19 Quizbowl Challenge is back for Fall 2020! The first of 3 competitions begins next Mon. Oct.5.

The setup is similar to past events. Sometime between Mon AM and Fri PM, get the team together online, one time, for up to an hour, appoint a typist, and start answering the questions, 60 for HS and 50 for MS. (Obviously, you're on the honor system to not look stuff up online.) When you're done, email us your set of answers.

From our 3 competitions this fall, Hanover HS (NH) and Chamblee MS (GA) were our winners. Congratulations to both!

Note we do offer in-person tournament questions for 2020-21, and the responses from Challenge contestants have encouraged us to do at least 3 more online/Zoom competitions after Christmas. More info in January.

Merry Christmas to all!

You can even sign up during the week 1/18 - 1/22, as long as your team can participate before the Friday night deadline. There's a link to a separate page with more detailed rules, so if you haven't played before, please look at that before signing up.

Our 2 other competitions this term will be the weeks of Feb. 15 and Mar. 8. One is Presidents' Day week, and the other will be Spring Break week for some (and the first one is the week of MLK Day), alas, but those are the weeks that best fit our schedule.

Last year, we had schools from Brazil, Chile and Panama play with us, and we hope they will return.
