Quiz Night Main Hall WMCC

Welcome to our second Quiz night of the year. Once again we’ll be starting promptly at 8pm. By which time you’ll need to be seated with pen and answer sheet, team name at the ready.

Quizmaster Kevin will then announce the 10 differing themes of questions for each set of 10 questions. He’ll also explain the use of your joker to be played on the section that hopefully your team will earn the highest number of points for, as the joker means your score will be doubled that round. Use it wisely!

Entry is £5 per person if you’re aged 16 or over. Free for those under. Don’t leave the younger family members out. Raffle tickets are available at £1 each. Teams of up to 8 allowed though most teams consist of between 4 and 6 people. Card payments accepted.

Most importantly bring along your own drinks, nibbles and goodies. We have two breaks where you can enjoy munching and drinking to your hearts content while poor Kevin gets to mark your sheets.

Finally we hold the raffle whilst Kevin does the final marking and then we deliver the prizes. 6 bottles of wine for the winning team and some chocolate as a sweetener for the team winning the least number of points. Hope to see you there.

Quiz Night - our first of 2022 8pm start.

Well Xmas is over and it’s time to get into a new year with fresh questions from Kevin our Quizmaster extraordinaire. He’ll certainly get your brain ticking over. Will your team win? Did you spend Xmas cribbing over those songs/ films/ general knowledge questions. Whether you did or not, it really doesn’t matter because Kevin has questions for teams of all levels and they’re always enjoyable.

We currently ask you to prebook your team as we are still limiting the number of teams at quizzes to ensure everyone’s safety. So contact me on deborah@wmcc.org.uk to ensure your team place.

So prepare yourselves for 100 questions covering all sorts ( no not the sweets!) spend a little time thinking about your teams name. Perhaps you want to keep the same one and my team remains ‘ The Underachievers’ for a very good reason. pretty self explanatory really but we have had the odd special moment. Irrespective we enjoy the evening. Because it’s not just any old quiz, it’s one where you bring along your own drinks and nibbles and quite frankly have a really enjoyable evening for not a lot of money. There is also a joker round where you choose to play your joker and double the number of points you achieve.

On that note what do you need to bring?
Team members up to 8 in a team. Pens and perhaps some scrap paper to work out anagrams etc Glasses to drink from, your nibbles and of course the drinks you wish to imbibe.

Entry is just £4 per person over 16s ( under 16s free).
we also sell raffle tickets just £1 a ticket. Purchase when paying for entry.

With two breaks during the quiz to allow for marking of the questions ( and of course the drinking and eating of your goodies) there is ample time to enjoy yourself.

There is a winners prize of 6 bottles of wine for the winning team and a little something for the team scoring the least amount of points. In the event of a tie Kevin will set a tiebreaker question. The closest answer wins.

Looking forward to hearing from you. Don’t forget email Deborah@wmcc.org.uk or tel 07823777201 to book your space. Thankyou.

Quiz Nights are Back!

Finally! Our first Quiz Night of 2021 . Firstly we are delighted to welcome you back, along with Kevin our wonderful quizmaster. We have missed you all.

For our first quiz night we are restricting the number of teams to 8 only. Just to allow us time to get back in the swing of things and to keep everyone as safe as possible with the inevitable rising case numbers.
This does unfortunately mean we need to ask you you to book your team in in advance but I’m sure you will appreciate the reasoning behind it. That said it’s just an email or a phone call/text if that is your preferred method to book.

Once you’ve booked, note the start time and date in your diary, and arrive 15/20 mins beforehand because the quiz questions start promptly at 8PM. Don’t forget you’ll need pens ( and perhaps some scrap paper). Kevin provides you with a team answer sheet, and you’ll have an opportunity to choose one of 10 rounds to play your joker. Use it well because double points are available.

You’ll also need to bring along your own drinks/glasses and nibbles. Just to make the evening more enjoyable.

The cost is just £4 a head for teams of up to 8 people. Under 16’s free as usual. That’s amazing value and it helps raise funds for the centre. That’s needed more than ever now after the past 18 months.

Winning team receives 6 bottles of wine and there’s chocolate for the team with the least points. Never a bad thing.

Raffle prizes as well! ( if you purchase a ticket that is!)

So to book your team email me at Raymentdeb@aol.com or tel/text 07823777201

Hope to hear from you soon.

Quiz Night number 2 of 2020

Well we all survived the first quiz in January and now there’s all to play for. Anyone can win because we never know what devilish line of questioning Kevin our quizmaster will take. So don’t forget first and foremost it’s an evening of fun. Anyone can do it and you don’t have to be Einstein. You’ll be amazed at what knowledge you’ve really stored away over the years and it’s great to work the grey matter occasionally.


So come along, teams of up to 8 people. ( Though the smaller teams usually win probably because there’s less arguing over the answers). Cost is £4 a head (over 16s) and the winning team receives 6 bottles of wine. Team with least points ( there are no losers here) gets consolation chocolate.

Tonight sees the 1st of our quizzes for 2020 take place and we welcome back our super quizmaster Kevin Briggs to challenge us over the course of 10 sets of 10 questions. As usual each team of up to 8 people will have a joker to play to double the amount of points earned on one ‘specialist’ round they think they are best at. Watch out for Kevin’s little plays on words though. All is not always as it seems.


Bring along pens and paper ( useful for any number or word rounds) whilst Kevin provides the quizsheets of course, and don’t forget the all important drinks, glasses and nibbles. Of course you’ll need a team name too. We usually have some really good ones and it adds to the fun!


We always hold a raffle during the evening and payment for quiz participation is upon entry at the door for the very reasonable sum of £4 a head. (16 years and older). The winning team will receive 6 bottles of wine and the team with the least points gets some consolation chocolate. Something to sweeten the pain!


So come along and have a thoroughly enjoyable evening with us. You might even learn something. I know I usually do.

QUIZNIGHT (Fourth one of 2019)

Well we’re moving towards the summer months so it’s the last quiz until September for us and you need to make sure you don’t miss it.

As usual bring along your wine, beer, soft drinks, flasks of tea and ☕️ coffee (well whatever you fancy drinking) along with a selection of goodies to nibble on and prepare for an evening of 10 sets of questions designed to stretch that grey matter. And going from experience you’ll probably have some fun at the same time. What more can you ask for? So turn up prompt for an 8 pm start. Pick up your answer form from Kevin and settle down for a great evening. ( well you have to pay your £4 first of course). Oops!

After 4 sets of questions enjoy a break whilst you relax, eat and drink ( just to give Kevin time to mark our papers) and then again during the next break ( after a further three sets of questions) when you can purchase raffle tickets or just keep eating and drinking!!!

Teams of up to eight people allowed. Under 16s free. Interestingly the smaller teams generally do better. Too many cooks maybe?

6 Bottles of wine for the winning team and chocolate of some sort for the team with the fewest points. It sweetens things up if you lose.

Hope to see you there.
