he Abergavenny and District Quiz League has been running a popular quiz league across North Monmouthshire and South Herefordshire since the 1980s.
It’s a very friendly set-up and new members are guaranteed a warm welcome.
We employ professional question setters who are highly skilled in devising challenges that will test, stretch – and occasionally frustrate – you.
In a league match, there are 4 people in each team. Many teams have more than 4 people in their ‘squad’ – 6 is a typical number to provide flexibility throughout the season.
The annual subscription of £50 per team is shared between the team members.
Each match consists of 8 rounds, each round containing 4 pairs of questions.
If a team answers their question correctly, they score 2 points. If they fail to answer it correctly, the questions is passed over to the other team, who can score 1 point for a correct answer.
Once the main match is over, the teams play a ‘beer round’ of 8 pairs of questions. As the name suggests, the losers of the beer round buy the winners a drink (beer is not compulsory).
In the league table, a win scores 2 points and a draw scores 1 point.
At the end of the season the team with the highest number of points is the winner and is presented with the Shield, which normally sits on the home pub’s bar.
In addition to the main league games, we run a mid-season Christmas Quiz and an End-of-season Quiz in the Spring. These are both informal, fun, and you are welcome to bring friends if they would like to join in.
