Guest are welcome to come to practices to see what Bible Quizzing is like.

Quizzing involves memorizing God's Word and competing in fun tournaments to test your knowledge.

Different books of the Bible are studied each year. This year we are studying the book of Matthew. There are different clubs that contain a certain number of verses to memorize for the year:

• Club 50: memorize 50 assigned verses.
• Club 100: memorize 100 assigned verses.
• Club 150: memorize 150 assigned verses.
• Club 300: memorize 300 assigned verses.
• Club Text: memorize the entire text.

You will select a club and memorize the assigned verses according to a provided schedule. At practices, you will be expected to quote what you have memorized to an adult / coach.

Quizzer Expectations

• Attend all practices and arrive ready to start at 7:00 PM. Please tell a coach if you are unable to attend or will be late.
• Bring your quiz book and sign off sheet to every practice and be prepared to quote.
• Be a team player: support, encourage and pray for each other!

Bible Quizzing is for youth in grades 6 - 12.

There is also a Junior Quizzing Program for children in grades 4 & 5. Quizzers in the Junior Program can participate in practices but not in quiz meets.

In order to make Bible Quizzing a successful activity, parents are strongly encouraged to be involved. Some ways to get involved include:

• participating in and/or leading the weekly Bible study
• listening to quizzers quote verses they have memorized
• coaching
• learning table staff positions: Quiz Master, Answer Judge, Score Keeper

• Quiz Books: $6 to $14
• T-Shirts: $16 to $20 (estimate)
• District Meet Fees: $75 (estimate)
