Howells-Dodge Consolidated High School

Jaguar Jabber Invitational

Saturday, January 12, 2013

Greetings, speech coaches!  I am pleased to announce the inaugural Jaguar Jabber Invitational to be held at Howells-Dodge Consolidated Schools. We are excited about the upcoming speech season and look forward to starting our season by hosting a tournament.

We will be accepting online registrations at SpeechWire. We will be using SpeechWire to facilitate the tournament and all results will be available online on the SpeechWire website. When entering students in duet and OID, please be sure to list full names for all competitors on one line (1 line=1 entry).

The entry deadline will be Thursday, January 10, 2013 at 6:00 p.m. Feel free to enter the students prior to the deadline and make changes up until the six o’clock time frame on the 10^th. No additions will be allowed after the deadline.

The tournament will feature separate JV and Varsity level competition. A student may be entered as a JV competitor in one event while competing in Varsity in another but please be sure to indicate which division the event should be included.  Within each division, students will compete in two preliminary rounds with the top six individuals/groups advancing into the final round. Medals will be awarded to all finalists. Team sweepstakes will be determined using final round placings only.

Students may be triple entered in the competition. Please make sure your extempers understand that they MUST be on time for extemp. Events will be flighted as follows: Flight A: OID, Serious, Informative, Impromptu, and Entertainment; Flight B: Duet, Extemp, Humorous, Poetry, and Persuasive. There are no limits on the number of entries a team may have in any of the events.

Concessions will be offered in the commons area throughout the tournament.

Registration will be held in the commons area, right inside the front doors of the high school. Registration will begin at 7:30 a.m. with the first round beginning at 8:00 a.m. Students will be able to congregate in the gym which is where the awards ceremony will take place.

You will need to provide one judge for every SIX ENTRIES. Uncovered judging slots will be charged $12 per uncovered entry.  Please be sure that your judges have a way to time the presenters and are aware that they need to be available for all final rounds. A hospitality room for all coaches, judges, and bus drivers will be available throughout the day.

Fees are $7.00 per entry, individual or group.  Fees should be paid upon registration on the morning of the tournament if not sooner. There will not be any refunds for drops after the January 10^th, 6:00 p.m. deadline.

If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please feel free to contact me.

We do hope you will join us for our first every Jaguar Jabber Invitational!
