Hi Andrew,
I don't see in here anywhere to whom checks should be made out. I know it's generally pretty important to have that addressee line exactly as it should be. Could you advise? Thanks.

Congrats go out to Belmont HS (MA) for winning the event, going 9-1 on the day, and to Hanover for their second place win, coming by virtue of the win over Belmont. By virtue of total points per game, Belmont won the event. Plymouth f...

I agree 100 percent with Coach Bowen. The issue becomes cyclical. Teams have declined since COVID-19, understandably, as the online thing had appeal to some, but not to the masses. One of the truly powerful aspects of a healthy circuit is the comradery developed between players, teams and coaches by...

As we are now a week away with seven teams, we do expect an 8th team who hasn't registered yet. If you plan to register, please do so by early next week at NAQT.com so we can finish the logistics. We expect to run it even with just seven if it stays as such, but we would love to see more of you here!

Re: New England Quiz Bowl 20-21

It looks like we may be able to expand to 24. If you would still like to join, head to NAQT to register on the waitlist. If we get 4 more teams, I will bump them up, but we likely won't bump unless we get an even 24 total for bracketing purposes. All geographical restrictions are lifted at this point.
