MOQBA Fall Championship
The MOQBA Fall Championship is a tournament run by the Missouri Quizbowl Alliance.
The first edition of the tournament (called the MOQBA Fall Tournament) was held in 2015 on the campus of Columbia College as a test run for the 2016 NAQT Missouri Qualifier, which was also moving to CC after several years at Mizzou.

MOQBA Winter Kickoff
In Fall 2020, the Missouri circuit was off to a rough start. Very few tournaments were formally announced, and many planned mirrors of sets were cancelled before being announced. The Harvard Fall Tournament set MOQBA Fall had used for sometime was also vaguely cancelled that year, resulting in a complex situation if a tournament was going to be set up at the time it usually was. Instead, a MOQBA Winter Kickoff was held on January 9 on the Mike Cvijanovich Memorial Tournament (MCMT) set. The tournament was split into a Zoom division and a Google Meet division, both to accommodate schools preferring either platform and to reduce headaches from the 48 teams and 37 schools signed up for the tournament. As with most other MOQBA tournaments, Small School titles were awarded.
