FAQ
  • HOW MANY FOLKS CAN SIT AT MY TABLE?
    6. Really - only 6.
  • NOW THAT I'VE SIGNED UP, WHAT'S NEXT?
    After you submit your team information form, one of the subcommittee members will contact you through email* within 1-2 business days to confirm your table type and team name. Team names are confirmed on a first come, first served basis. ​ In the week leading up to Super Trivia Bowl, we'll send the team captain a "Countdown to Kickoff," which is a complete pregame report. Team captains - please share this with team members! ​ *Look for an email from cmssupertriviabowl@gmail.com. If you don't see anything, please check your Spam folder. Still nothing?
