Occupations

This pub quiz handout round features a list of 15 occupations, along with a list of 15 brief definitions of these. The aim for teams in your quiz is to match up the correct occupations to the correct definitions. For example, "Thatcher" should be matched to "Makes roofs from straw or reeds".

As in the example above, teams should be able to match up a few occupations without too much trouble, however there are some less well known occupations included too, so teams may need to rely on some guesswork to complete the round.

It is recommended that this round is used in your quiz as a handout round. For more information on handout rounds and our recommended use for them in quizzes click here
