Hoover Invitational Tournament XVII -- Southeast PRISON BOWL Mirror

Post by ADHamley »

Hello quizbowl coaches and sponsors in the southeastern U.S.!

Please mark your calendars for Saturday, October 29, 2022 for HIT XVII.

This tournament will be a PRISON BOWL Mirror for the southeastern U.S.

LOGISTICS:

Our field is tentatively set at 24 teams, but we are open to expanding the field based on interest and reader availability. Our question set will be PRISON BOWL 2022, so please double check that you haven’t played that set before.

On October 29th, on-site registration will begin at 8:30, and play will begin at as close to 9:00 as possible.

The registration fee is $75 for the first team and $65 for each additional team registered from an individual school. At this point, there is no cap on the number of teams per school allowed to register, but that is contingent on interest and reader availability.

A $5 discount will be given for bringing a fully-functioning buzzer set (up to 2 discounts per school). A $10 discount will be given to schools located a minimum of 100 miles away OR any out-of-state school that attends.

Lunch will be sold on site and will be cash only. Lunch price will be $5 for two slices of pizza and a drink; vegetarian options will be available, but we will be unable to prepare for gluten allergies. There are also a number of fast food restaurants within 5 minutes of the school.

We will also sell additional snacks and drinks throughout the day (cash only).

In order to indicate your intent to register, please fill out THIS GOOGLE FORM: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIp ... sp=sf_link.

If you have questions, please shoot me an email at [email protected]. Please use the subject line, HIT XVII, so that I'll be specifically looking for your questions.

Best,

Anthony Hamley,
Hoover High School

this SQBS file doesn't appear to work, just tried testing it on my machine to see if I can make an HTML version so people with Chromebooks and other computers that can't run SQBS can see, just to let you know

Here are the tournament results. Apologies for the dead link earlier. The school firewall makes this fun and exciting. Hopefully the second time is the charm. Just download the zipped file. Thanks!

It's probably not a firewall issue. The process for uploading stats is not super intuitive. It took me a few tries to get it right for the tournaments I've supported.
