Revision as of 11:30, 12 March 2023
We are excited to announce the full details of the inaugural OQL Individual Championships!
The event will take place at venues around the UK on the 25th March 2023. We will aim for each venue to start around 11:30am. The cost will be £10 per person, with the exception of our Dublin venue which will cost €12. Players will have 90 minutes to answer 200 questions and at the end of the day we will crown an overall champion as well as our 8 category champions. Each venue will be provided with a fun team quiz for the afternoon but they are all welcome to provide whatever afternoon entertainment they wish.
The competition will consist of 25 questions in each of the standard 8 OQL categories with a few minor changes. All questions are being written by OQL legend, Rob Hannah and you can see the category distribution below.
Registration is now closed - however, if you would still like to participate please email us at info@onlinequizleague.com and we will see what we can do to accommodate you.
