The philosophy of NAL is that young academic athletes in our society should be motivated and recognized in the same way as other young athletes. Each junior high in Mesa Public Schools (MPS) has an NAL team. We will be competing against eight other teams throughout Mesa. The district championship team will then have the honor of representing the city of Mesa and the state of Arizona in the national tournament held at ASU via video conferencing. Our games consist of fast-paced questioning on various topics, including math, science, literature, geography, history, and current events. There is also a presentation portion of the competition during which team members prepare a discussion on a particular topic and present it to the judges/audience.
