If you are planning to run a quiz for the first time here are a few pitfalls to avoid:
- Don’t make it too hard. If you’re writing your own questions, it’s easy to fall into the trap of “If I know the answer, surely everyone does”. If you’re running a quiz you’re probably quite good at quizzes, so be careful – too easy is much better than too hard.
- Don’t make it too long. We’re sure you’ve got some great questions and ideas for quiz rounds, but you don’t have to include everything this time. Your quiz will be so good there will be more of them, so save some material for the next quiz.
- Don’t make it too niche. You will probably have a subject that you know lots about, but not everyone shares your enthusiasm for your pet subject. Make sure you have a wide range of subjects suitable for a wide range of ages.
But don’t be put off, you can always get your quiz from us.
