The International History Bee and Bowl is looking forward to holding its annual Japan History Bee and Bowl Championships during the 2018-2019 academic year. This tournament will run on our Alpha set of questions, and is open to all students and teams (including from outside Tokyo and even outside Japan) as long as they have not yet played our Alpha set of questions – it does not require prior qualification. As soon as the tournament date and location have been confirmed, they will be posted here and then registration for the tournament will open. For further questions, please email Mrs Nolwenn Madden at nolwenn@iacompetitions.com. Thanks, and we hope that you and your school will be able to join us!
