Dear Speech Colleagues:

Shepard High School is proud to host the 5th Annual District “218 Fling” Speech Tournament on Saturday, February 1, 2014.

We realize that we are one of the few tournaments in the area on this weekend. Our building also has some usable space limitations because of a construction project that is taking away some previously usable areas. For these reasons, we can only guarantee team entries of two (2) per event. As we know our numbers when time comes closer, WE MIGHT be able to accommodate more than two entries.

This fee will need to be paid before your team will be allowed to compete. Contestant drops on the tournament day will not decrease your number of required judging assignments.  
*Please supply your judges with stopwatches for limited prep events.
 
THE RULES

Radio Speaking: Contestants will have one 45-minute prep period. That script will be used for both preliminary rounds. Contestants will be single judged in Round II and double judged in Round III.  Finalists will prep for a second time. Time will factor into contestant ranking.
