2/24/24 - Dunbar DAWGs in Lexington, KY

Post by yelostar »

Paul Laurence Dunbar High School in Lexington, KY is excited to announce that we are hosting the Dunbar Academic Winter Games (DAWGs) on Feb. 24, 2024. We welcome everyone preparing for state Governor's Cup, our state NAQT Championship, nationals or anyone else looking to compete!

Each school is asked to bring a moderator or staff member for the tournament. Please let us know if you are unable to.

This tournament will use NAQT IS-224 as its question set, and will be a qualifier for HSNCT & SSNCT. We will be seeking PACE certification.

We will play untimed rounds of 20 tossups and 20 bonuses, with 15 point powers and -5 point negs. Team rosters may consist of up to eight players, with no more than four players at a time. Teams with less than four players are welcome. Players cannot move between teams.

Play will be round robin pools in the morning, with re-bracketed afternoon pool play as well. All teams will play during all rounds of the day.

The initial field cap will be 18 teams, and we will consider expanding if there is interest and staff available past that field cap. Registration is on a first come, first serve basis.

Costs:
$90 for the initial team from a school, and subsequent teams will be $10 cheaper
There will be a $5 discount per working buzzer system.
There will be a $20 discount per staff or moderator

To register, please visit https://www.naqt.com/registration/field ... t_id=15560

Feel free to email our tournament director, Nicole Hubert ([email protected]) with any questions or post them here.
