WELCOME!

Dear Coach: 

We are proud to extend this invitation for you and any qualified students to participate in the 2022 National Individual Events Tournament of Champions. The NIETOC is committed to bringing the nation's best and brightest students and teachers together to participate in a high-caliber and high-quality national speech tournament. The NIETOC is designed to give competitors an amazing competitive experience, with a student-centered schedule, competitive costs, and minimal judge requirements.

Our 2022 tournament will be virtual and offer synchronous competition. Because of the many changes required to do so, we are delaying both the opening and closing of our registration period this year and are compiling a plethora of documents to help you navigate the process. While there is certainly helpful information on our website, most of the pertinent details for 2022 will be found on our SpeechWire page -- https://www.speechwire.com/c-files.php?tournid=12680. 

The entire NIETOC Board is hopeful that many of you are able to join us for what will be our 12^th national tournament intended to celebrate, once again, the power of the spoken word and the resiliency of the speakers and coaches who continue to advocate for that power--in spite of a global pandemic.

Some of the key aspects of the 2022 competition include:

-Four preliminary rounds in all individual events

-Synchronous competition for all rounds – preliminary and elimination alike

-Students may triple enter in any combination of events.

-Bonus entries available in Duet (2), Duo (2) and POI (1)

-Extemp Topics will be alternating rounds of international/domestic issues

-2022 NSDA qualifiers earn one bid in that event

-Initial entry deadline moved back to April 15, although at-large applicants must register by April 11.

All of the pertinent information regarding the many changes to this year’s competition can be found under our SpeechWire ‘Files for Download’ here -- https://www.speechwire.com/c-files.php?tournid=12680. 

To confirm bid status, please check our website and the searchable bid recipient database:  http://nietoc.com/name-search/

ALL ENTRIES WILL INITIALLY BE ON THE WAITING LIST UNTIL VERIFICATION OF RESULTS IS CONFIRMED AND ACCEPTANCE IS GRANTED. 

If you have any questions, please email us at info@nietoc.com. We look forward to hosting you at The 2022 Virtual Experience!

-The NIETOC Executive Committee
