Each qualified team is required to make a flag for the 2017 World Tavern Trivia National Championships. But don’t look at it like a chore on the to-do list – make this a fun, exciting occasion by using your imagination and getting as creative as possible!

This started years ago as a small way to show team unity, and it has evolved into one of the most fun and integral parts of the National Championships.

HOW IT WORKS

Each team can make their flag and bring it with them to Nationals, or, they can make it on-site with their own materials or those provided by World Tavern Trivia. You can even parade into registration with your flag raised and team in tow!

During the event, we will do a “Best Flag” promotion that is very similar to the Best Costume contest. All teams who have flags will be put in front of the audience of WTT National goers, and whoever receives the biggest applause is the winner!

WHAT KIND OF FLAG CAN I MAKE?

Use your imagination – let that be your only boundary! You can make a traditional looking flag with your own color scheme added, or start from scratch and customize your flag to suit your team’s mentality. It doesn’t have to be an actual ‘flag’ either. Take a look at this photo gallery on the Trivia Nationals webpage to see past examples.

Some teams have even made flags complete with lights, moving parts, fans, and more! Some are hand-sewn, while some are patched and pasted together using only basic materials. There’s no limit to how creative you can get, and there's no wrong way to do it.

So get ready to march into the National Championships with a flag made with pride. Get started now!
