The ONQBA (Ontario Quiz Bowl Association) is an organization founded in June 2011 to promote quizbowl in Ontario to students of secondary schools, colleges, and universities. Membership requirements include staffing at least one Ontario tournament and voting in at least one ONQBA procedure. The Ontario Quizbowl Association (ONQBA) will make an agreement with the Guelph club to take over organization of the provincial tournament, offer discounts at provincials for schools that hosted a certified tournament,certify any academic tournament that has already been certified by PACE and/or NAQT and has an ONQBA member in its staff (as a check to make sure the tournament isn't an organizational disaster). Any events that don't meet these criteria will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. The organization will have a website and quarterly newsletter ready for the upcoming school year, which will advertise tournaments, profile university clubs and list ONQBA decisions,continue school-targeted (ie: mailings) and student-targeted (ie: Facebook) outreach, and use any surplus end-of-year funds to support Ontario teams attending national tournaments in the US (with the hope that one day, that support will go to a NASAT team)
