The Individual Player National Championship Tournament, or IPNCT, is a championship tournament run by NAQT to determine the best individual quizbowl player in the country. It debuted in 2018 with only a high school division. A middle school division was added in 2019 and removed starting in 2023, although middle school players can and do continue to participate.
The tournament takes place on a single day, namely the day after the ICT. The high school division primarily uses tossups from the ICT Division II question set. The middle school division has typically used a specially written set. The tournament format is modeled after the Hillemann Singles format.
