Quince Orchard will likely be sending two teams to this competition, so put us down for two in the interim.

The tournament structure will be four brackets of six in the morning, an hour lunch, and then three brackets of eight in the afternoon (without replays). This structure guarantees every team 11 rounds of quizbowl.

Will you add a house or scab team if there isn't a 24th team?

No we will just have a bye, so the teams in that bracket will only get 10 rounds.

Some Virginian schools may not be able to make this date due to VHSL states at Williamsburg.
