British Quizzing Championships

 

There is still time to register for the British Quizzing Championships which are taking place on Saturday 3rd September in Northampton. Open to anyone and you can find full details HERE. Hundreds of people will be taking part and its a great step into the world of competitive quizzing if you have yet to sample a GP style event. The British Quizzing Championships were one of the first events I went to over a decade ago and I would certainly recommend it as a starting point! There will a pairs event on the day as well as well as a buzzer event the following day (sadly now entries and this is the only part of the weekend Ill be doing) and it should be a cracking weekend.

If you are interested in previous winners of the contest, you will recognise many of the names below, most of whom will be competing again for one of the most prestigious titles in quiz.
