Important: Late arrivals will be dealt with after Round 1 has begun. Please fill out the enclosed late form and wait in the cafeteria until someone comes to collect the forms. Do not enter the tab room under any circumstances (unless you were contacted by the tab staff to enter). This slows down our tournament.

The judge requirement is that a school must bring 1 judge for every 3 teams for each respective division and event (e.g. 1 judge for 3 teams in Beginner PF and/or 1 judge for 3 teams in Advanced PF). Each judge is obligated to judge all three rounds. If your school has not met the requirement and we do not have enough judges, we will begin to drop teams in random order from schools that have not provided the required judge quota. REGISTRATION DEADLINE FOR ALL ENTRIES IS 5PM – February 3rd, 2016 We will offer the debate format of Policy Debate featuring three rounds of debate. Points will be on the scale of 30 points, within the range of 25-30 points.
