The Maryland Academic Quiz Team is pleased to announce the latest incarnation of the Spring Classic High School Tournament, which will take place on Saturday, April 12th, 2008. This is an NAQT-style tournament using house written questions, meaning there will be 20 tossups and accompanying bonuses. There will probably be powers at this tournament. We plan to offer teams 5 or 6 guaranteed rounds before lunch. After lunch we will be placing teams into a single elimination playoff bracket, probably of the top 16 teams. Teams that don't make the playoffs or that get eliminated from the playoffs are welcome to play scrimmage matches against other teams. PRICING: First Team: $55 Second Team: $45 Third+ Team: $35 Buzzer Discount: -$5 Moderator Discount: -$10 Travel Discount (150+ Miles): -$10 Minimum per team: $30 The questions will be distributed freely to all teams in electronic form. Limited paper copies will also be available on a first come, first serve basis. REGISTRATION: To register, please contact Mike Bentley at mike000_at_.... We currently are capping the field at 32 teams, although if we end up getting more interest and more moderators, we will probably be willing to expand the field. PHYSICAL REGISTRATION: Registration will take place from 8:15 to 8:45 AM. This page will be updated with more information regarding the location of the tournament. Hope to see you in April, Mike Bentley President, Maryland Academic Quiz Team
