The top teams will qualify to compete for the PACE National Championship this June in Chicago.

Re: 12/4/10 - Columbia High School Tournament (Huntsville, AL)
For some reason naqt.com says this is the "tentative" day as our Snead ACBL tournament, which is odd because it's on a Saturday. I'm pretty sure it's just a typo, but even if for some odd reason it isn't I should still be able to come help barring any set conflicts.

I just got word that NAQT does not have any sets available for our tournament in December. Therefore, I will be looking for possible events to mirror or other parties interested in providing questions. I hope this won't lessen interest in our tournament.
Thanks,

Pensacola is interested provided this does not conflict with UF's winter tournament.

Re: 12/4/10 - Columbia High School Tournament (Huntsville, AL)
I am excited to announce that we are now officially mirroring the SCOP (Scholastic Community Outreach Program) tournament. I don't think that there will be any regional conflicts with this set, as it is currently being used only in Illinois. This will be a great set as Alabama continues to embrace pyramidal play and the standard 20/20 format.
Start registering, folks! We need teams!!!!

The closest mirror to Alabama is one at Harding University in Searcy, AK, this Saturday. Apart from that, there's one in Arizona and one in Indiana, but the rest are in IL.quizbowllee wrote:I am excited to announce that we are now officially mirroring the SCOP (Scholastic Community Outreach Program) tournament.

I have edited the original post to include the price.
Registration will be $65/team with a $5 discount for working buzzers (limit 2 such discounts per team). I will also consider other discounts for out-of-state teams, etc. Please contact me ASAP if you are interested. [email protected].

Re: 12/4/10 - Columbia High School Tournament (Huntsville, AL)
I'm glad to see that this tournament is growing quickly! I will be e-mailing all coaches who have registered or expressed interest soon to get numbers and levels of teams. Or, those of you who read this forum, please feel free to reply and let me know for sure how many teams you are bringing and how many (if any) will qualify for a JV division.
Thanks,
Lee

Re: 12/4/10 - Columbia High School Tournament (Huntsville, AL)
We're at 34 teams. I will take exactly one more team to get us at 35. Then I'm closing registration.
Thanks for all the interest. I wasn't expecting much at a new school, but this may be the biggest tournament I've ever hosted.
That being said, if anyone is available to moderate on Dec. 4 in the Huntsville area, I am officially desperate for a few more good mods!!!
