Sporting Numbers

Available for instant download

£1.00

This handout round features a list of 15 statements describing a measurement or distance in the world of sport, but not including the actual number. For example, "the length of Mike Powell's world record in the men's long jump". The 15 numbers that represent these measurements and distances (in metres) are given, and the aim for teams in your quiz is to match these up correctly.

There is quite a big spread in the numbers, but for most statements, teams are likely to only have a rough guess as to the actual answer, and so may have to choose from a few numbers in the list. Therefore, as well as testing teams sporting knowledge, they are likely to also have to rely on some guesswork and deduction to complete the round. It is also worth noting that there are a few measurements that teams may know the answer to in feet or yards, so if they are able to convert these into metres then this should give them the answers to a few statements.

While the information in this round could be used to make up standard question and answer rounds (where the quiz-master asks questions aloud and the teams write the answers on blank answer sheets) it is recommended that this is used in a quiz as a handout round.

If you buy this handout round, we will give you access to pdf files you can download. Two of these will be for the main handout sheet - one as illustrated above, and one in a more plain format. The third sheet will contain the answers. You probably already have everything you need to access and use these rounds in your quiz, but you might want to check our requirements page to make sure.
