Dear Colleague,

You and your students are cordially invited to the 2015 Westside Warrior Invitational Tournament to be held on Friday, January 16, 2015. Registration will be at Westside High School on Friday at 3 p.m. 

We will be running nine events with two rounds and finals. Round ribbons will be given out for the top three places in each section and trophies and medals will be given for the top six places. If we have enough entries, we will include honors and champ finals (12 places). 

We will once again be offering Duo Impromptu acting. See the Events Info page for more info on this entertaining event. To enter, choose Improv. Acting for interested students. They will be randomly paired with other students at the tournament. 

We will also be having a Poetry Slam between final rounds and awards. If you have students who are interested in this, please let me know. The rules are listed on the events page also. You may enter poetry slam students for free. Winners will not earn sweepstakes points, but they will get fun prizes!

Pizza and other food will be served along with a fully-stocked judge's lounge. Please let your team know!

Last year we played host to high caliber speakers. We anticipate an equally diverse field of entrants this year. We look forward to seeing you in January for some intense competition!
