TQBA to host Quiz Bowl Clinic on 9/4/10

Texas Quiz Bowl is pleased to announce that on September 4th, we will be hosting our first ever Quiz Bowl Clinic. This Clinic will be held from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Seven Lakes High School in Katy, Texas. This clinic is designed as a rapid introduction to quiz bowl for both coaches and students who are new to the game. The cost per person for this event is $10. This fee will cover your lunch and refreshments. This clinic will feature separate sessions for coaches and students. Experienced coaches will give tips on holding practice, choosing a team, and the logistics of getting to and from a tournament. Experienced students will give tips on how to prepare for quiz bowl, effective practice strategies, and fundamentals of game play that may not be obvious to the newcomer. In addition both groups will be given an overview of rules and will be invited to be a part of an interactive scrimmage. Newcomers will watch a game and be encouraged to chime in and ask questions about what is going on. Finally there will be a variety of different buzzer systems available for new coaches to view and try out.
