Post by jmersch »

Lusher Charter School in New Orleans, Louisiana is pleased to announce that the Lusher Invitational High School Quiz Bowl Tournament will take place on Saturday, November 11. We will be using NAQT’s IS-170 set. Each team is guaranteed at least eight rounds of play. As registration numbers come in, we will be able to let you know how many rounds we anticipate and what the setup on tournament day will look like. We will be using NAQT rules for this tournament, with the exception that matches will not be timed (all matches will consist of twenty toss-ups).

Any questions about the tournament may be directed to me at [email protected].

Check-in will begin at 8 am in the Lusher Upper School library (5624 Freret St, New Orleans, LA 70115) and will close at 8:30. The first match will start no later than 9 am.

Ample street parking is available on Nashville alongside the school and on Freret in front of the school.
