Revision as of 12:25, 30 November 2012

The Delaware Fall Open is a high school quizbowl tournament held every December (usually the second Saturday) at Wilmington Charter. Participants hail from D.C., Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania teams.

Directed by Bill Tressler and Charter Academic Bowl, the first two years the tournament was held at the Sanford School. When Bill moved to Charter, the tournament came with him, but Delaware Fall Open III was hosted by Salesianum.

This is one of the few tournaments in the Mid-Atlantic that offers a JV division. Any freshman or sophomore is eligible to play JV. A junior or senior who played no high school quizbowl before the current academic year is also eligible.
