Round 15 — Sports & Records
📋 What it is
This round quizzes sports rules, events, and record-holders.
🗣️ Coach says
Sports rounds are exciting — build the tension, then announce the record from your card.
🧠 Memory hook
A marathon is 42.195 km — the extra bit was added so a race could finish in front of royalty.
😂 Giggle
Why did the scoreboard need a nap?
It kept adding up all night!
😲 Whoa!
The Olympic rings’ five colours were chosen so every nation’s flag had at least one of them.
🎤 How often are the Summer Olympic Games normally held?
You're the HOST — decide your answer and hold the card, then flip & announce. (Knowing it FIRST is what makes you the host, not a lucky guess.)
🃏 Your card: Every four years.
The Summer Olympics are held every four years.
🎙️ Contestant “Sure-Sam” buzzes in: “The Olympics happen every year!”
Sounds right? Big events can feel yearly — but the Summer Olympics are every FOUR years. You held the real answer — you’re the host!
