Choose your board
A sports board for casual fans and mixed-interest teams. Questions focus on enduring rules, equipment and calculations, with the format named whenever rules can vary.
- This original board has five categories with five clues each, worth 100, 200, 300, 400 and 500 points. Suggested values move from accessible recall to a more specific fact or a reasoning step.
- The questions and answers are free to read here. Quiz Champ is an independent game maker, not affiliated with or endorsed by the television show.
Prevent sports-quiz disputes before they start
Use Sporting equipment, Tennis scoring, Association football, Running and combined events, and Scoreboard arithmetic. Say the full rule qualifier in each clue. Standard tennis scoring is different from no-ad scoring, and this football category means association football, also called soccer.
- Keep the answer notes available to the host. The rules linked below were checked on November 1, 2026; check them again before a later event.
- Start with the 100- and 200-point values if several players are occasional fans. Rotate who gives the team's final answer.
- The arithmetic category states its own scoring assumptions. Accept the correct number with its unit; do not turn local-league variations into a surprise rule.
