About National Science Bowl
Launched in 1991, the National Science Bowl® (NSB) is a highly competitive science education and academic event among teams of high school and middle school students who compete in a fast-paced verbal forum to solve technical problems and answer questions in all branches of science and math. Each team is composed of four students, one alternate student, and a coach. Regional and national events encourage student involvement in math and science activities of importance to the Department of Energy and the Nation.
​
Regional science bowl championship teams receive an all-expenses-paid trip to compete at the national event. High school and middle school teams travel to Washington, D.C. in April. The national events are several days of science activities, sightseeing, and competitions. Teams enjoy the entire science bowl experience and take home many prizes. There are cutting-edge science seminars and hands-on science activities.
​
Our Science bowl season will culminate in the state/regional competitions for Middle and High School. Practice for the Science Bowl happens on Tuesdays and Thursdays for the MS team and Tuesdays and Fridays for the HS teams. The Volunteer State Science Bowl will be held in Kingsport, TN, in January. Tessennssee Science Bowl, the largest and most well-developed regional competition in the United States, will be held at Pellissippi State College in Friendsville, TN, in February. We will announce our Middle School and High School Team Rosters here.
