REGISTRATION: Teams can register through the NAQT registration system here. Replying to this thread will not register a team. The registration fee may be paid on-site with either cash or check. Please make all checks payable to Westview ASB, with Westview Quizbowl noted on the check.

We will be implementing a soft field cap of 10 teams per division, until we are sure that we have enough staff and rooms to accommodate more. As of right now, the first three teams that a school registers will be automatically let into the field, while the remaining teams will be placed on a wait list. Registration will end on Wednesday, March 29th. All teams registering after this deadline will be waitlisted.

All middle school teams attending the tournament are required to have at least one adult chaperone at all times, whether that be a teacher, coach, or parent of a player. It is the responsibility of the chaperone to stay with players at all times. If you have any questions regarding this policy, please contact us by email.

$85 for the first team
$75 for subsequent teams

- $5 per working buzzer system (must accommodate at least eight players)

TOURNAMENT FORMAT:
Teams will be allowed to have up to 6 players, but only 4 players can play at one time. Teams with more than 6 players will be asked to split into two teams. Teams will only be allowed to make substitutions at halftime.

We will be using official NAQT rules, with the exception that matches will be run as untimed halves of ten questions each. In addition, ACF rules will be followed regarding timing.
