The last date of submission of the forms is September 23. The forms can further be mailed to fountainclubkma@gmail.com. During the briefings, members of the club also discussed on the problems why the students are not able to compete in the national level. The participants' standard has still not reached the national level where the participants are mostly below Class 8 whereas the competition in Nagaland includes only Class 8 to 12, thus making the champions ineligible for participation in the national level. However the Club stated that they are also making efforts so that the students can participate in the national level in the coming years. The Nagaland Spelling Bee Championship was initiated by Fountain Club which today is jointly organised by the Club and SCERT with media partners The Morung Express, NM Cable, and IT Partner Ramietech Solutions which develops the softwares for the competitions.
