Newark CFL #5
General information This information is from a tournament in a past season! This is a High School tournament in New Jersey. View manager contact information A judge fine of $75 per round will be owed for judges who do not pick up their ballots or for judges not qualified to judge a round (for example a student judge not being indicated as such and judging Varsity rounds). Competitors in team events must be on separate cameras and in separate locations. If that is not possible, proper social distancing must be maintained, even if the performers are related. This is to ensure equity for all competitors. This primarily applies to Duo and Public Forum. Please read the following: 1. Make sure you create accounts for each of your students in Speechwire. You will be unable to enter your students without them successfully creating and activating their accounts. This video tutorial will walk you through the process: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dcGivaEKSuk
We are unable to provide any support with student accounts! All inquiries must be sent to support@speechwire.com
2. Once you have created accounts for your students, make sure they can login and subscribe to live updates. These updates tell students when schematics for rounds are posted and most importantly, tell students if they broke to elimination rounds.
3. This year the speech judge quota has been modified where 1 judge is needed for every 5 speech entries (debate judge quota remains the same). Our league has many different judges and the idea of a virtual tournament is new to many of them.
4. Our virtual tournament rooms will be hosted on the NSDA Campus platform. GOOGLE CHROME IS THE ONLY BROWSER COMPATIBLE WITH NSDA CAMPUS!
5. FOR DUO ONLY: Duo will be conducted asynchronously at this tournament. This means competitors will pre-record their duo performance and submit the video to be judged. Competitors are still required to adhere to the NCFL’s rules for Duo Interpretation when recording their video. This tutorial will show you as the coach how to submit the completed video for judging: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9GZkuW3e76w&t=2m33s Duo video URLS are due on Friday February 5, 11:59PM
6.FOR EXTEMP ONLY: The Speechwire platform allows for draw to be conducted via the student’s Speechwire account and the question will automatically be displayed on the judge’s ballot in the round. For those curious, Ben Stewart of Speechwire has released a video showing how the process works for the student: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AhB9U1iQaLY&t=8m21s If you have any questions, contact me immediately! I would much prefer that you ask 100 questions via email before the tournament rather than on the day of the tournament. Good luck!
