What's Quiz Bowl?
Quiz bowl is a game in which two teams compete head-to-head to answer questions from
all areas of knowledge, including history, literature, science, fine arts, current events,
popular culture, sports, and more. There are also tournaments for individual players rather than teams.
Quiz Bowl is an intense, reaction-based competition spanning multiple subjects from Fine Arts to the Sciences.
There is a niche for everyone to fill, so you are always welcome to try!
The defining feature of quiz bowl is the use of a “buzzer system” that lets players interrupt the reading of a
question when they know the answer. That element adds a dimension of confidence, anticipation, and rapid recall
to a game about knowing facts. Those “tossup” questions are answered individually, but doing so earns one’s team a
chance at a three-part “bonus” question. Bonus questions are worth more points and allow collaboration, but are
generally more difficult.
