If you are new to Quizbowl, you might want to start with the Quizbowl article and the Category: Quizbowl basics. We also have specific articles on How Collegiate Quizbowl Works and How Quizbowl Works, For Journalists. Once you start getting involved, useful information can be found at How to Get Good at This Game, How to Write Questions, and How to run a high school tournament.
