The Northern Branch held their annual quiz in Sheffield on Thursday 20th October 2022 with around 40 foundry men & women from local foundries making up 12 teams.
Six Rounds of 10 Questions on science & general knowledge were provided by quizmaster Simon Alexander providing great entertainment with teams able to increase their score by 50% in certain rounds – backing their knowledge by playing a ‘Joker’ card in advance of the questions.
At the end, and for the third consecutive year, the triumphant team was from Furniss and White.

On behalf of the Branch – President Simon Alexander would again like to thank Mark Fenyes & Team Omega Sinto FM for their ongoing support together with all of the various team members for their welcome participation in making the evening a fitting memorial for Peter Gleaves, former Chesterfield Foundry College lecturer & IBF Branch stalwart.
