| Description: | National Academic Quiz Tournaments, LLC, organizes the premier high school and college national quiz bowl championships in North America.
NAQT was founded in 1996 by a group of former players. Those competitors--including several national champions--are now college professors, high school teachers, lawyers, engineers, software developers, physicians, and research scientists who make time to promote and improve the fast-paced question-and-answer game that was an important part of their lives. They are motivated by the chance to provide the next generation of students with more and better opportunities for competition than they themselves had.
NAQT provides a standardized, nationwide competition format that is open to all high schools, home school collectives, community colleges, and colleges. In addition to its national championships, NAQT provides questions to invitational tournaments and league championships throughout the year as well as television shows and online games. |
