Steps to State Meet:
1) Decide on who's going?
2) Register your team(s)
3) Make your reservations for hotel and travel


1) Decide Who's Going?
--A and B league quizzers are eligible for the State Meet.  C-league quizzers in 1st grade are eligible upon the ruling of the team's coaching staff, and must move to a B or A league team.  There is no C-league quiz level at the State Meet.

2) Register Your Team(s)
Registration is open and ongoing for teams.  Here's a few things that you'll need when registering:
a. go to the Ohio Ministry Network's website for JBQ and click State Meet Registration
b. registration is online with a credit card only, $55 per team.
c. Contact information for team and coach needed
d. Quizzers, age, years quizzing, grade and age
e. If quizzers have earned any seal awards (Achiever, Discover, Searcher, or Master) during this season (or since the 2009 State Meet), mark that on registration for each quizzer.  If quizzers have reached the almost impossible, the impossible seal or reached the 107 club, please email Becky HERE to giver her the quizzers' name and information.
f. 2 Officials are required for each team.  Their names, positions that they are able to hold and number of years of experience are all areas to fill in.
**To ensure the very best quizzing for each of the levels of quiz, and to ensure that we place officials into levels of quiz that they are prepared for, we are asking that each official take the online training through the website.   This takes about 30-45 minutes and will help officials to be as best prepared for situations they will face in quiz matches.  NOTE: If your officials have taken this earlier this season, they do not need to retake it.  Officials training log-in information is found on the ohioag.org/jbq page directly below the State Meet Information.
