We hope that our wonderful location can be a good compromise for LA County and SD County schools and hope to have a large field.

The address is 4321 Walnut Ave, Irvine, CA 92604. We will probably be using the Humanities building for our tournament with the central meetup area in a lecture hall-like room, HLG.
There will be several events going on this day including a Distance Track Meet and a Swim Meet. Here is a temporary parking map.
Note: There's no highway exit on Yale Avenue.

Questions
This tournament will run on NAQT IS-116 and top 15% of the field will qualify for HSNCT in May. This tournament will run on mACF rules (powers, 20/20, 30 point bonuses w/ 3 parts, no math comp). This tournament is giving schools that have not qualified to HSNCT a chance to do so and providing Orange County with a solid Quiz Bowl experience.
