Turkey Talk
General information This information is from a tournament in a past season! This is a High School tournament in Nebraska. View manager contact information Dear Colleagues, On SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 2017, Lincoln East and Pius X will offer one speech tournament at two sites. East will host a NOVICE division, while Pius X will handle VARSITY competition. We trust your judgment on entry decisions, so please choose your novices wisely . . . no ringers, please. We are also pleased to announce the Pius X varsity division is a NIETOC qualifying tournament in HI, DI, Oratory, and Duo this year!
Logistically we feel the tournament will work out well. Please note: > Tournament registration times are sufficient to drop off novices and judges at East before taking varsity competitors to Pius, which is about 6 blocks away. > We will NOT provide transportation from East to Pius after the novice events have concluded. You will need to arrange for your bus/van driver to transport students from East to Pius for the awards ceremony.
> POI (Program Oral Interpretation) will be offered as a VARSITY EVENT ONLY at Pius X. Any novices who wish to compete in POI will need to compete on the varsity side.
> PLEASE NOTE that novice extemporaneous will take place at East and varsity extemporaneous will take place at Pius – this is a change from previous years so please plan accordingly. If you have a situation where varsity and novice extempers need to be in one location, they will all need to compete in the varsity division at Pius. > Judges will only be used at one site - please divide your judges between the sites based on the number of entries you have at each site. Nobody will need to run back and forth between the schools. If you don't have two coaches (for supervision) that's okay. Just leave a judge representing you wherever you're not. In case of an emergency, tournament directors will have cell phones to contact each other and you.
We will have concessions available, and of course our coaches’ and judges’ lounge will once again be well stocked with goodies. We will make every effort to make this an outstanding early tournament for you and your team.
Let us know if you have questions about the “Turkey Talk.” We hope to see you on the 18th!
Nolan DeWispelare Nick Herink TOURNAMENT INFORMATIONFORMAT: There will be three preset rounds breaking to finals. Students may double enter in all events and may triple enter (at their own risk) only if all three events are individual events at either site. No competitor may use the same script or parts of the same script in more than one event.
ENTRIES: Entries are due by 5:00 pm on Tuesday, November 14. Please enter ONLINE at www.speechwire
