James Blair Bowl VI (William & Mary) 2/18/23

Post by SemanticSatiation »

This is the official announcement for the College of William & Mary’s Spring 2023 high school tournament, James Blair Bowl VI. The tournament will be held at William and Mary on February 18th, 2023.

This tournament will be run on DART III, a regular difficulty + set. Information about the set can be found here viewtopic.php?t=26197. This tournament is open to all high school teams who are willing and able to come to Williamsburg. All participants must be high schoolers who go to the same school.

Fees for JBB VI will be $80 per team.
There will be a $10 discount for every staffer provided by a school (up to 2) and a $10 discount for every functional buzzer system provided by the school.
The minimum fee is $40 per team.

If your school plans to bring staffers, there will be a cap of two staffers from any one school. Staffers are expected to bring a laptop to keep score and stay throughout most of the tournament.

The current field cap is 12 teams, but that may change based on staffing logistics. You may sign up to 3 teams per school. Each team may only have a maximum of six players on it, so if you would like to register more than six players, you must register an additional team.

Rules against cheating and misconduct will be strictly enforced at this tournament. We reserve the right to remove anyone suspected of cheating or misconduct from the tournament. If you suspect anyone of cheating, please contact a TD.

In order to register, please fill out this form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIp ... A/viewform.

The registration deadline is February 4th and if you must drop from the tournament, please let us know as soon as possible.

We hope to see you soon!

The tournament has concluded! 18 teams attended which was great to see, we had a good geographical range with some more local teams from Hampton Roads and teams from as far away as NoVA.

Thomas Jefferson A won the tournament, Princess Anne took 2nd place, and Thomas Jefferson B took third. Thanks to all teams for playing, it was a great day!
