Cal Cup #2 is taking place on Saturday, December 18 (on Discord). We will use CALISTO 2 for Competitive/Standard and CERES for Novice (both housewrite sets). Entry fee/discount/payment info is the same as Cal Cup #1. The field cap, for now, is 14 teams per division.
New: If a middle school registers several teams we will place 2 in the field and the rest on the waitlist. We want to prioritize high school teams (since this is a high school tournament). Let’s call it the Churchill Rule 🙂
Register here. The list of registered teams will be posted here

California Cup #1 (Cal Classic) will take place online (Discord) on Saturday, November 13. We are using NAQT IS-206 for the Competitive+Standard divisions and NAQT IS-207A for the Novice division. Like last year, teams will pay for each tournament separately. Teams consist of up to six members. This will likely be the only Cal Cup tournament that is a direct qualifier for HSNCT (must be in Competitive in order to qualify).
Register for Cal Cup #1 here (need an NAQT account in order to register). Indicate any staff (and their name(s)) that your team is bringing on your registration page
Cal Cup #2 on Discord is tentatively scheduled for Saturday, December 18 (the same weekend as last year). We have not yet confirmed the date/location for Cal Cups #3 and #4.

The Northern California Quiz Bowl Alliance, in collaboration with Southern California Quiz Bowl and the Georgia Academic Team Association, is pleased to announce that the CA+GA high school site of 2021 ACF Fall will be held on Zoom on Sunday, October 17, 2021. This competition is open to all high schools in the states of California and Georgia but teams should be aware that the questions featured are harder than a typical high school school; teams that are new to quiz bowl should not play this tournament. The field cap is 18 teams; Monday, October 11 is the last day to register.
Please view previous ACF Fall questions here to see if this tournament is appropriate for your team.
Complete details (including how to register) are here.
