NC Middle School Tournaments 2015-2016

[friendswithdave]

The North Carolina Association for Scholastic Activities has set dates for all NCASA quiz bowl events during the 2015-2016 school year. All events will have middle school and high school divisions.

Oct 24 - Fall Quiz Bowl Tournaments - see note below
Jan 30 - Quiz Bowl Jamborees - kick-off to weekly quiz bowl meets
Mar 5 - Regional Quiz Bowl Tournaments - statewide qualifiers for State Final
Mar 19 - Quiz Bowl State Finals

NAQT Introductory Sets will be used for all high school events except the State Final which will use an NAQT Invitational Set. NAQT Middle School sets will be used for all middle school events.

NCASA will work with member schools interested in hosting tournaments on Oct 24. These will be completely independent tournaments run and administered by host schools. NCASA will help member schools with marketing and tournament organization by providing sample schedules, summary scoresheets, NAQT contacts, and promoting the tournament to member schools. However, these will not be NCASA tournaments and are therefore open to all schools.

The Jamborees, Regional, and State Tournaments are free and open to all NCASA member schools. The school membership fee for 2015-2016 is $200 per school plus $0.25 per enrolled student. School districts that register all secondary schools receive a 50% discount off the registration fee. Guilford, Durham, Iredell-Statesville, and Cumberland County are among those school districts who are expected to register all interested schools again this year.

We will provide additional details on host schools for all tournaments as they are established.
