McGill University is an anglophone university in Montreal, Quebec. A trivia club was established in the 2002-03 season.

History

McGill's club was founded in 2003 by Andrew Segal and Jon Klein, two alumni of the Community Hebrew Academy of Toronto team that finished third in the 2002 Reach for the Top nationals. They have attended an NAQT SCT each year since, claiming the Division II title at the 2005 Canadian SCT at Ottawa. McGill has qualified for the 2005 ICT, 2006 ICT, and 2007 ICT, but attended only the former two.

For several years, the team had no meeting room. Forced to play in the student bar, the public display has drawn several members, making it by far the largest team in Canada in terms of local membership. Through various factors, only a small portion of the group actually travels to tournaments.

Hosted Tournaments

McGill hosted "Quebec Bowl" in October, 2005, consisting only of Ottawa and McGill teams. They hosted the 2006 NAQT Canadian SCT, which drew a larger field.
