League Play

Varsity questions are NAQT's Illinois set, which is a modification of two IS sets into one conference set that nearly reflects the IHSA distribution. The frosh/soph question source for 2010-11 has not been set, but immediately previously, were by Bryce Avery.

Each team plays each other team once at both the varsity and frosh-soph levels. There is a tournament held at the end of the year, which has traditionally been single-elimination, but this may change for the 2010-11 season.
