Academic Bee/Bowl
Bowl teams and Bee players start with several preliminary rounds (5 or 6 rounds in the Bowl, and 3 rounds for the Bee). After prelims, the top Bowl teams will play in a single elimination playoff, while the top Bee players will play a 4th and final round. The number of teams/individuals playing in playoffs will vary depending on the field size; your Tournament Director will announce this on the day of the tournament. There will be plaques for the top Bowl teams and medals for the top 3 Bee players in each division. Additionally, the top Bowl teams and Bee players can also qualify for our Middle & Elementary School National Championships in May.

The schedule as listed below is considered tentative, and therefore may still be subject to changes due to registrations or other factors. The schedule will be confirmed the week of the tournament when the pretournament email goes out.
