Halifax Institute Quiz Night 2017

Eleven teams competed in this year's Annual Quiz with the Covea team - Judge Fudge & the Arbiters, finishing as clear winners.

It looked like being a very close contest with only two points separating the top 8 teams after the first round. Covea then upped their game by scoring an impressive 18 out of 20 in the next two rounds to make them clear leaders at the half time break.

Their lead was cut slightly in the first round after the break but they weren't going to be caught & finished the quiz a magnificent 11 points ahead of the second placed team, The Blue Marshians, representing Jelf Beaumonts.

There was a tie for 3rd place between teams from Wilby Insurance & Bradford Insurance Institute, which Wilby's won on a tie break question.

The teams this year were competing for the Martyn Foulds Memorial Trophy. The trophy was kindly donated by Ian Walker of the Bradford Institute in memory of our sadly missed friend & past President Martyn Foulds who died suddenly at the end of last year.

A raffle was held during the break for a pie and pea supper, which raised £100 for the Insurance Charities.
