A BOB "battle" for the Elementary Level (grades 2-3) consists of two full days of doing battle against the other Elementary School teams. Rounds are played and teams earn points by giving the correct answer to the questions. The team with the highest number of points is the winner of the "battle"!

Coaches reserve the right to remove a team member from the team.
