Scholar Bowl : ウィキペディア英語版
Quiz bowl

Quiz bowl (quizbowl,〔 scholastic bowl, academic bowl, etc.) is a quiz game that tests players on a wide variety of academic subjects. Standardized quiz bowl formats are played by lower school, middle school, high school, and university students throughout the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom.
The game is typically played with a lockout buzzer system〔 between at least two teams, usually consisting of four or five players each. Players are read questions and try to score points for their team by buzzing first and responding with the correct answer.
Quiz bowl is most commonly played in a tossup/bonus format, which consists of a series of two different types of questions. Other formats, particularly in local competitions, may deviate from the above rules.
== History ==
Most forms of modern quiz bowl are modeled after game shows. ''College Bowl'', which was created by Don Reid as a USO activity for US service men during World War II was an early influential quiz bowl program. ''College Bowl'', also known as "The College Quiz Bowl", started on radio in 1953 and then aired on national television from 1959 to 1970.
In the first half of the 20th century, many other quiz bowl-like competitions were also created. Delco Hi-Q began in 1948 as a radio quiz competition sponsored by the Scott Paper Company for high school students in Delaware County, Pennsylvania. It claims to be the oldest continuously running student quiz contest in the United States. The ''It's Academic'' televised student quiz show program has been run for high school teams in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area since 1961 and is recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records as the longest-running quiz program in television history. ''It's Academic'' has been spun off in many other US media markets and has inspired many other televised high school competitions.〔
In 1977, College Bowl was revived as an activity on college campuses by College Bowl Company Inc. (CBCI). In September 1990, the Academic Competition Federation (ACF) was founded as the first major alternative to The College Bowl Company.〔,p. 259〕 National Academic Quiz Tournaments (NAQT) was founded in 1996 and currently organizes national competitions at all levels in the United States and supplies tournament questions for grade school and college teams across North America and other parts of the world.〔, p.29-48〕 In 2008 the College Bowl program abruptly ended, although the company itself continues to operate the Honda Campus All-Star Challenge (HCASC) for historically black colleges and universities.
