Clemson University, Bulletin Room - Room 82 96 Poole Agricultural Center Clemson, SC 29634-0129 (864) 656-3261 (phone); (864-656-0742 (fax); Attn: Mick Smith They no longer accept checks RULES AND INFORMATION SPECIFIC TO THE AVIAN BOWL CONTEST: Each state may enter a team of not less than two (2), and not more than four (4) members. There will be a 25 question written quiz given the evening preceding the Avian Bowl Contest. The scores for the top three individuals will be added and averaged to give a team score. Questions will be prepared from the National Avian Bowl Study Packet by the Avian Bowl Committee. State representatives will be determined by the State 4-H Office or designated representative. Team members may be participants in other contests. As in other contests, team members may only compete for one year. The Game Layout is shown below The audience is required at all times to refrain from providing answers to any team member. Disciplinary action for violations will be at the discretion of the Avian Bowl Contest judges. No pictures will be allowed during the contest. No recording of any kind (tape recorders, videos or written transcription) will be allowed. OFFICIALS: Moderator - Assumes complete direction of the contest, asks all questions, designates contestants to answer questions, acts as the referee judge and is IN CHARGE at all times. Referee Judge - May rule on the acceptability of an answer. Time Keeper - Records total elapsed time for each contest and indicate to the moderator the expiration of total time or the expiration of the time allowed in which to answer questions. Score Keepers - Two individuals shall keep scores on each contest. One score should be kept so that all points awarded or taken away in penalties may be checked. The second score is kept to maintain scores visible to the moderator, the contestants, and, in so far as possible, the viewing audience.
QUESTIONS: The degree of difficulty and choice of questions will depend upon the contestants’ level of knowledge. Questions may be in the form of written words. Number of Questions. Each set of teams within a single round will have the same number of questions. Bonus questions will have the same point value in each game within a single round. Types of Questions. There are three types of questions: Regular Questions. Bonus Questions - A bonus question is usually a question requiring a several-part answer or a difficult answer. See point system summary for point values. Bonus questions WILL NOT be passed on to the other team in the event of an incorrect answer. When a team member answers a regular question correctly, a colored card in front of that team member will be turned over by the moderator. Regardless of the number of members on a team, four (4) questions must be answered correctly by the team before a Bonus Question is earned. There will only be one bonus question per team per game. Tie-breaker Questions - A tie-breaker question is used to replace a question thrown out by the judges. NO loss of points for an incorrect answer on bonus questions. The value of the bonus questions will be announced by the moderator before the question is read. Tied Games. In the event that two teams have a tied score in games involving placings, the tie will be broken by asking an additional five (5) questions. The running score will be maintained through the tiebreaker. Questions answered correctly during the tie-breaker can go toward the awarding of a bonus question if the team has not already received a bonus question during that game. REFERENCE MATERIAL: Competing teams should know well in advance the specific sources from which questions are taken. Questions will be taken from the National 4-H Avian Bowl Manual, 4-H Manual 161, Clemson University. Study sections will be listed in the Conference Cover letter which accompanies the Conference rules.
MECHANICS OF PLAY: Format A double-elimination tournament-style format will be followed. Any team which loses two games will be eliminated from the contest. The contest will continue until only one team remains with less than two losses. Pairings, Byes, Order of Play and Placings The average team score for the written test (lowest score will still be dropped) will be used to determine the seedings for the contest. In the case of two average team written test scores being identical, the seeding will be determined by a coin toss. The contest will be a classic double-elimination contest and will run as such by an individual versed in contest organization. The written scores will not be added at the end of the oral competition. The moderator will ask a question. The first person whose light flashes must start to answer the question within five (5) seconds after being acknowledged, or LOSE five (5) points. Any member answering a question without being acknowledged will LOSE five (5) points. It will be the responsibility of the judges to determine that an answer was started within the five (5) seconds allowed. It should be noted that repeating the question does not constitute the initiation of an answer. If an incorrect answer is given, the team will LOSE five (5) points. If the question has been completely read, the moderator will not repeat the question, but the other team will have the opportunity to ring in within five (5) seconds. Timing will begin when the question is complete and when a signal is activated. Once a contestant starts spelling a word the contestant may stop and begin again, but can only re-trace the spelling previously given. The same holds true for a contestant with a fill in the blank question. The contestant can re-start, but not change what has already been said.
