Re: 2021 Spring Novice @ UC Berkeley (04/03/2021)
This post is reserved for field updates. We are soft capping the field at 16 teams, but are definitely willing to go higher if we have enough staff.

Re: On HS Teams Without Coaches
Rohan, if you don't think that 11-year-old kids should have an adult along with them while walking by a busy road as part of an official school activity, I don't know what to tell you. First of all, kids that age are not mature enough to manage a situation if one of them gets lost or has a medical ...

Re: On HS Teams Without Coaches
When my son started playing quizbowl this year, I was horrified to find that there were teams attending an MS tournament, run by HSers no less, with no adult supervision.

Re: Southern California 2019-20 Discussion
In terms of Westview, our team compositions are definitely up in the air at the moment. There is definitely a chance that the A team that went to ACE is our NAQT A team, but the team you listed or some other combination might end up being used. However, I think when our C team plays as a full team (...
