Last year, the quiz saw teams from the south doing exceedingly well. And this fact did not go unnoticed by the participants. Before filming for the final, Springdale reminded me of a comment(!) on YouTube singing praises of teams from the south. And this year, taking that comment personally, all the teams in the final came from the north – Saharanpur, Delhi, Varanasi and Amritsar.
The final began on a fairly different note than the semis as Springdale Amritsar became the only team across all episodes to get all the answers correct in the first round. Some distance away was the next best Sant Atulanand Varanasi. Amristar, piled on more pressure on others as they doubled on the very first question of the second round. But then Pinewood Saharanpur and Sant Atulanand made their intentions clear – they weren’t there just for the sake of collecting participation certificates. DPS Vasant Kanj unfortunately couldn’t offer much in the final so they were the first to exit the game. Playing catch-up throughout the quiz, both Varanasi and Saharanpur could never really claw their way back into the game and finished second and third, respectfully and respectively.
Springdale Senior School Amritsar powerplayed at the start, held the fort in the middle, and slogged at the end, leaving very little for anybody else. So ideal was their performance, not for a moment were they put in a spot of bother. Historically, Springdale has been exceptional as they’ve qualified every year with unparalleled consistency. However, they were hurting from faltering repeatedly at the semifinal hurdle in each of these appearances. But now with the 2023 trophy being displayed proudly in their cabinet, one has to salute the indomitable spirit of Springdale. As Gursidak, Raghuvansh and Nitya lifted the coveted Heritage India Quiz trophy, Springdale Senior School became the first school from Punjab to etch their name in the champions list, a list every school in India aspires for and this trio achieved.

The fourth semifinal began with Jawaharlal Nehru School Bhopal going early off the blocks. However, in round 2 they lost their way collecting a couple of negatives as repeat semifinalists from last year DPS Indirapuram went up to second place and repeat semifinalists from a decade ago Pinewood Saharanpur climbed to the top. After the first leg in the third round, the fact that both Saharanpur and Indirapuram gave their answers meant they progressed to the final leg without being put under pressure. In the final leg, Indirapuram put their lateral thinking to the test with a fine answer to keep Saharanpur on tenterhooks. But Saharanpur was up to the task as they didn’t buckle under pressure and recalled the good ol’ days of Doordarshan of the 90s to complete the full set qualifiers in the national final.

In round 1 of Semifinal 3, there was not much to choose between the teams as all but one team had the same score. It was with the buzzer action in round 2 that some clarity emerged as to which way this quiz is headed. Centre Point from Nagpur and DPS Vasant Kunj Delhi marginally pulled ahead. After the first leg of the 3rd round, Delhi and Nagpur switched places albeit with the same 5-point margin. And that is how the quiz came to a rather uneventful end.

Sidenote - Unfortunately, in hindsight, it was a fairly difficult set of questions, which translated into a low-scoring encounter that promised much but offered little, both in the studio and to write about here 🤷‍♂️

The fact that the CBSE Heritage India Quiz is consistent in its being means that one tends to see the same schools turning up year after year even as their representative students keep changing. In the second semifinal, out of the 5 teams we had 4 teams from previous editions qualifying again. The quiz began with the ever-so-consistent Springdale Amritsar leading the pack and DAV Gurugram following them closely. In the 2nd round, almost all teams had something to offer but Amritsar and Gurugram continued to maintain their lead. But the real drama was when DPS Ruby Park Kolkata swung into action early on in the 3rd round eclipsing DAV to put themselves hot on the heels of Springdale. And so, when DPS gave the penultimate answer Springdale had no choice but to crack the last answer to prevail despite the late resurgence of DPS. And when Springdale did indeed answer the final question under serious pressure from DPS, the outpouring of emotions released with it the baggage of the umpteen unsuccessful attempts at the semifinal hurdle by Springdalians of the past.

Sidenote – I had a really tough time maintaining composure when DPS Kolkata hit the buzzer on a question with Kolkata as the answer. I'll give myself 5 points on that one 😛

The season opener had a couple of teams with prior experience of the semifinal stage. Unfortunately, though, it started on a rather flat note as neither one of the five teams took early initiative. That changed in round 2 thankfully, when Sant Atulanand Varanasi accumulated as many as 45 points from the 75 points on offer. And that onslaught was more than enough for them to sail through but they still had a bit more gas left in them as right at the end they punched one more answer against their name to leave DPS Patna well behind in 2nd place.

Sidenote – With due respect to all teams, it wasn’t a surprise when Sant Atulanand powered through since they qualified from arguably the toughest region that has produced national champions in 4 out of the last 7 seasons!

In the hard work and rigour of preparing to get better at quizzing, sometimes we forget that one can improve by being smart and efficient in the non-Q&A part of quizzing.
The good 'ol 80/20 principle - 80% of the result is achieved with 20% of smart actions.

Had a delightful time conducting the session with the students of Sunbeam Group and thanks to Titash Banerjea who agreed to share his quizzing journey at the last minute.
