There was a good turnout at APH for the Pairs competition and Presentation Evening on Monday 23rd May.

After a written qualifying competition, six randomly drawn pairs of players went forward into the semi-final stage.  This was played n 15 to 1 style, with each pair having three lives and being asked questions in turn until only the final three pairs remained.  These three pairs had their lives reset, and the final was played under the same rules.  You can watch the knockout stages of the competition here.

 

Trophies were presented to the teams present who were runners-up/winners in the various competitions.  Pictures can be seen on the Gallery page.

19 teams took part in the Big Liverpool Pub Quiz at St Michael's Irish Centre on Sunday 15th April 2016.  In an exciting competition written and presented by Dave Bill of Redtooth Quizzes, a tiebreak was needed to separate the top two teams. A team form the Liverpool Echo finally triumphed to take the £80 top prize and the coveted BLPQ trophy.

The winning team can be seen here with James McGregor, Liverpool Quiz League vice-Chairman, who organised the whole evening. 

TV Quizzers Jenny Ryan, Dave Rainford and Pat Gibson, as well as several members of the Liverpool Quiz League, helped out different teams in each round.
