Things will be tough, interesting, and thrilling. Six stages will be there and each participant will have to prove their IQ. Six stages, Six contestants, and a lot of breathtaking performances. So without any further ado, let’s begin today’s Grand Slam contest.

Principal’s/ Chief Guest’s Speech (School/ Educational institution)

Good morning/ afternoon/ evening to our dear students, participants, and judges, present here. It is always an honour to conduct an inter-school/ college quiz competition. I am extremely elated at how so many young faces are determined to mark out their territories through their brains. Brains are their true beauty.

I just wish you all good luck. Whoever wins the trophy is not the only one. Remember today your participation matters the most. You are on stage, facing the lights, camera, and the crowd, and you are already a winner. A true winner of your strength and abilities. Don’t lose hope. You are great. Thank you. Wish you all good luck.

First-Round

Now let us start with our first round. It is a one-on-many round. At every buzzer, a clue will be given to our participants. Every participant will get a chase per clue to answer and points will be secured likewise. At the end of all six clues, the final answer will be given. Here’s the first clue, everyone, at your screen.

After First-Round

Whoo! That was terrific. Only the first step and already all of them have started showing their brains quite well. Your scores will be up on the scoreboard.

Now let us move forward to our second round.

Second-Round

This round is a one-to-one round where all of you will be asked separate questions. You will be able to select you points for which you will play. The buzzer has the scores. This is a challenge round and so anyone can challenge the participant. Even double and triple challenges for greater scores are permitted in this round. Also, keep this in mind, this is a negative marking round. So, be careful while you answer and challenge. So here’s our first question for (his/her name).

(Question asked) Anyone who will challenge (his/her name)? Ok, so (his/her name)

has challenged for 24 marks. If you lose this challenge then 24 marks will be lost. Is anyone ready for more challenges? 

After Second Round

We have arrived at the end of the second round. The scoreboard will show us the score details of every participant. 

This is an elimination round. So (his/her name) is eliminated at this point. Well done (his/her name). Don’t be heartbroken, you have shown a wonderful talent already. Nothing is worth more than sharing this stage with everyone. I will hand over a cheque for 2000 rupees, a gift hamper from (stationary company’s name), and a food voucher from (confectionary’s name) to (his/her name). Wishing you lots of success ahead. 

Now we will move on to the next stage. But before that let us take a short break, we will be right back. Stay tuned. 

Third Round

Welcome back everyone to the 2022 Grand Slam Quiz competition. I am your quizmaster (his/ her name), and we will move on with our third round. But before that let us put our hands together for the sponsors today (sponsors name), who have single-handedly taken over the development and progress of the show. Our sponsors esteem the young brains and constantly strive for the betterment of young children in their education and overall development. 

In the last round, we have seen a more terrific blow of the respective answers. This round is a rapid-fire round. Questions will be asked and participants will have to press the buzzer to answer. This round has no negative marking. But it is an elimination round. So while you answer you need to be very careful. More points, more chances to make up for the finals. So here goes the first question of the rapid-fire round. 

After Third Round

That was tremendous! I just myself was thinking about how to continue questions at that speed of your strong answers. And to my astonishment, no one has made a single wrong reply. I believe this is the first time in this rapid-fire round. A huge round of applause for them, everyone, once again.

Now time for the scores. It seems there is a tie in this round between (their names). So we need a tie-breaker to have one continue for the next round. Hands-on your buzzer, a quick tie-breaker question and choose one. The question will come to your screen. One pressing the buzzer first and giving the right answer will continue to the next round. Here goes the question.

So, (his/her name) will continue in the next round and we will have to farewell (his/her name). Well done, your spirit is really praise-worthy.  I will hand over a cheque for 2000 rupees, a gift hamper from (stationary company’s name), and a food voucher from (confectionary’s name) to (his/her name). 

We will take a short break and be right back. Till then stay tuned.

Before that, I would like to applaud our technical team and supporting casts for wonderfully decorating the stage I honour every one of this team who is relentlessly working upon the grand structure of this quiz competition every year.

Let us now go forward with our remaining participants. 4 are left to continue with us. This is an audio-visual round and every participant will be given an option to choose from four. Each participant can be challenged thrice over by the other three. Make sure you challenge carefully as there is negative marking in this round. The final three from this round will continue with us in the fifth round. So here’s the first question to (his/her name).

End of the Fourth Round

That was wonderful to have such fun and excitement at this round. So many cross challenges have been made, points have been gained and lost, and now it’s time for the scores. Scoreboard, please.

(his/her name) is getting eliminated at this round. Well done (his/her name), you really played well. An elimination cannot mark your merit, you are much greater than that. I will hand over the gift hampers to (his/her name), and a cheque of 5000 rupees. A big round of applause for him/her.
