Our bowls club is hosting its first quiz night next month and,if possible, I should like some advice.
I had planned to have six categories with twelve questions in each. However,seeing as we are having food and a raffle as well as a couple of quizzes such as dingbats and picture quiz, I feel that we would be going well into the night !!
I woukd like a few suggestions as to how many categories and questions we should have and what prizes are suitable. We were thinking £15 for first prize £10 for second and £5 for third. Not sure of what to give for the picture quiz or the ding bats.
Any help woukd be appreciated.

That seems a lot of questions. Mine has 8 rounds with 8 questions in each round. Food and raffle after 4 rounds. Are you planning to let them mark their own as obviously marking takes time too? Mine takes about 2 hours
I'd suggest no more than 50 questions, especially if you are having pictures AND dingbats.
Teams to swap sheets for marking
Just one cash prize for the winner (max £10) with 2 and 1 bottle wine for 2nd & 3rd
Establish the rules to save arguments -
Rule 1 The quizmaster is alwys right
Rule 2 If the quizmaster is wrong, Rule 1 applies
Rule 2 applies especially when typing!
Maybe 5 rounds of 10 questions + time between each to swap papers and mark.Also maybe a mixed pictures,dingbats ,anagrams sheet which could be browsed over during the quiz and in any break and then swapped along with the answers to the last round then marked.
If they argue my answer is always if it matters at the end we will discuss it lol
