The Víðistaðaskóli team consisted of Steinar Logi Hallgrímsson, Lilja Bergrós Kristjánsdóttir and Orri Kristmundsson, with Birkir Már Viðarsson as coach. The reserves were Hrafn Tinni Sigurjónsson, Róbert Hugi Sævarsson and Sigurður Stefán Ólafsson.

A link to earlier times

The quizmaster for the competition was Tómas Geir Howser Harðarson, and the question writer and scorekeeper was Einar Baldvin Brimar. It is fun to note that both have a past connection to the competition: Tómas himself competed in the finals for Víðistaðaskóli and Einar Baldvin for Setbergsskóli. They describe it as both exciting and enjoyable to now be involved as organizers after having followed the competition for many years.

Veistu svarið? is an important platform for students to test their knowledge, build self‑confidence and practice cooperation — and this year’s finals clearly showed that the future is bright.
