In Bible Quizzing, there are three main divisions, aka ranks. When you join your team in (usually) fifth or sixth grade, you are called a Young Teen Rookie. After you have quizzed for two years, you are a Young Teen Veteran. In around tenth grade you are classified as a Senior Teen Veteran. [Disclaimer: I only speak for my team and conference. Elsewhere things are probably done differently.] This is done so that experienced competitors do not go against rookies, so as to give an 'equal' chance to all. For this reason, there are often A and B divisions to even competition out within a rank when some teams are better than others. In addition, one who joins in 11th grade and has never done quizzing before is grouped with the YTVs as a Senior Teen Rookie.
Conferences are just like regional chapters, usually containing part of one state. The conference is larger if states don't have a lot of teams.
