Arkansas Governor's Quiz Bowl Association - www.arquizbowl.org
AGQBA has seen more teams at both levels enter or re-enter competition this year, for a total of 381 registered teams. As a result, we have added some conferences to some classification levels and realigned schools to fit into more coherent geographic groups when possible. This meant that in some cases, not all conferences are exactly the same size, but we tried to limit drive time for conference tournaments. In the files linked below, the team listed on top is your site host. Teams listed second are the tentative host next year if no one requests to host a regional next year.
2025-26 is the second year of a two year conference cycle. As such all schools are in the same classification level that they were in last year. However, due to AAA having different rules for different sports as to the size of conferences and how non-public schools are added (and whether or not a public school is demoted), the AGQBA board has voted to REALIGN to the Non-Football Classification structure starting in 2026-27. This will mean that starting next year, Public schools will have their Quiz Bowl classification align with all non-football athletics. Non-Public schools are still eligible to be moved based on Competitive Balance. This also means AGQBA will be moving from 7 Classifications to 6.
