-----------------------------------------------
The University of Florida College Bowl Team would like to extend an 
invitation to your school to compete in the University of Florida 
Spring High School Academic Tournament on Saturday, March 22nd, 2003. 
Currently, the tournament will be capped at 24 teams, but the cap 
will be lifted if enough extra teams show interest. Schools can 
register as many teams as they wish. Registrations will be accepted 
on a first come, first serve basis.

The tournament format will tentatively consist of a divisional Round 
Robin with playoffs. Check-in will be on the first floor of Matherly 
Hall starting at 8:00 am, and a light breakfast will be provided. 
After a brief welcome meeting, rounds will begin around 9:30 am. 
After a break for lunch, competition should end around 6:00 pm.

The registration fee will be $80.00 per team with the following 
adjustments: $10.00 discount per fully functional buzzer system, 
$25.00 additional if you wish to purchase a copy of all the rounds 
used in the tournament and a minimum fee of $50.00 per team. The 
questions will be printed and collated for your use in future 
practices. The deadline for registration is Wednesday, March 5th, but 
early registration is recommended. Registration may be faxed or 
mailed to us. Either the actual check or proof of purchase is 
acceptable. All payment information is on the enclosed page.
