NAQT Collegiate Novice (CNS-177C) @ U. of Florida (09/22/18)
Posted: Tue Aug 28, 2018 2:50 pm
Acting on behalf of the University of Florida Quiz Bowl Team, I am proud to announce our mirror of NAQT's Collegiate Novice set on September 22nd, 2018! This tournament is a great occasion for players who are newer to the game to become acquainted with its intricacies, without being bombarded with tons of unfamiliar material right off the bat.
Question Set:
We'll be using NAQT's 2018 Collegiate Novice set. More information regarding the set can be found at https://www.naqt.com/college/collegiate ... eries.html
Eligibility:
The club officers are choosing not to institute any formal eligibility restrictions, with the hope that individual clubs self-police, and generally limit their players to those in either their first or second year of collegiate competition. On that note, we reserve full rights to deny, or reject any proposed teams that we feel are not conducive to the general purpose of hosting a novice tournament; that is, allowing novices to have a good time while playing individuals with skill levels similar to their own.
Tournament Site and Time
We are currently still waiting on room reservation officials to get back to us, but in all likelihood, the tournament will be held in Matherly Hall, on the northeast corner of campus. This post will be updated when our information changes. Our field cap is similarly pending. The tournament registration will begin at 8:30 A.M., and questions will begin being read at 9:00 A.M. on the dot.
EDIT: The tournament is confirmed to be in Matherly Hall. We should be the only ones there, so just follow the assorted quizbowlers to the main room, which should be on the second floor of the building.
Fees and Finances
Base Fee: $20 per player
Buzzer Discount: -$5 per complete, working buzzer system
Travel Discount: -$10 per 200 miles traveled one way
New Team Discount: -$10 if your school's quiz bowl organization wasn't active prior to the 2017-18 school year.
There is a minimum fee of $30 dollars per team.
Registration
To register, please email me, Tracy Mirkin, at [email protected], with the number of teams you plan to bring, the rosters of said teams, and how many buzzers you plan to bring.
Field
UF x 4
UCF x 2
Auburn x 2
USF x 1
Auburn at Montgomery x 1
TOTAL: 10
We look forward to seeing all of you at our first tournament of the 2018-19 school year! Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any other questions! Thank you!
