Mission:
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.
Products:
NAQT currently makes question sets for regular-season high school tournaments (either an invitational or league event). for college intramural (IM) tournaments. regular-season collegiate events (either a juniorbird, Division II, or CUT-style event), high school state championships. sectional championship tournaments, intercollegiate championship tournaments, and high school national championships. NAQT also makes practice materials for all of the above tournaments as well as for several televised quiz shows.

NAQT is always interested in seeking new business opportunities and partnerships. Please feel free to contact us with your ideas.

Was I the only one who thought IS-76 was a bear?

Oh well, I powered two questions in our toughest match, so I guess I can't complain *too* much :)

And even as rough as IS-76 was for us, any NAQT packet is better than the alternative!
