Re: [LM_NET] TARGET: HS Quiz Bowl Question

[Shonda Brisco <sbrisco@GMAIL.COM>]

I'm posting this to the list only because I haven't seen it in the
archives and the question comes up every few years.

I've used the following resources (linked here) for my Academic Quiz
Bowl Team in the past:

http://www.dbtech.net/asca/resource.htm

http://www.ihssbca.org/resources/question_sources.html

http://newscurrents.com/intro/quiz.html

http://www.hsquizbowl.org/phpBB2/

http://www.case.edu/orgs/trivia/links.html

(Some of these are "College Quiz Bowl" but depending upon the level of
HS players and the types of questions you are used to answering, there
might be some information that you can use here.)

Patrick's Press offers a weekly set of HS questions that cover various
topics including math, science, literature, world events, and sports.
I used those all the time when coaching my teams--- we placed first in
our local and district matches two years in a row.  (Neither time were
we able to attend our state competition because of other activities
that conflicted with the dates.  However, many of these resources are
outstanding for the Quiz Bowl / Academic Bowl teams.)

Also, you might want to check out this online version for more practice:

Good luck!
