The British Novice tournament is an annual novice collegiate-level tournament held in the UK, typically around November. The tournament is characterised by having a lower difficulty than other tournaments in the season, as well as being targeted at a UK audience. The first British Novice tournament was held in 2018, with simultaneous sites at Imperial College London and the University of Glasgow. Early instances of the tournament used house-written questions by the UK Quizbowl organisation, but the 2022 tournament switched to using a Briticised NAQT Collegiate Novice set.
In 2022, due to industrial action from train drivers, as well as clashes with term dates, the tournament was held twice, with an online site on the 26th of November and an in-person site at Imperial on the 3rd of December.
