However, Quiz bowl is one that seems to be overlooked or often neglected at times. Quiz bowl is a game in which two teams compete head-to-head to answer questions from all areas of knowledge. There are also tournaments for individual players rather than teams. The club teaches life skills such as self-discipline, observation, listening and making and defending decisions.  

In a competition, four members from each team are allowed to play. In order to prepare for states the team runs through old packets of questions as well as use a website called, Photobowl.
