ACF Regionals

ACF Regionals is a Quiz Bowl tournament that has historically been held in February. It is similar to ACF Fall in terms of format, and packet writing requirements. ACF Regionals is typically held at several locations across the country in February. While "Regionals difficulty" once had its own definition above regular, the difficulty of ACF Regionals is now usable as a metric for measuring so called "regular difficulty" tournaments. [1] ACF Regionals questions got more difficult for several years, but 2008 ACF Regionals was noticeably easier than the 2007 incarnation, and was in fact statistically easier than NAQT Sectionals of the same year.

ACF Regionals was produced from 1991 to 1997 by the now-defunct Academic Competition Foundation. The foundation was replaced in 1997 by the Academic Competition Federation, which has edited the tournament ever since:
