Registration is due in SpeechWire by Wednesday, February 21st at 5:00 pm. Judges will be locked in at that time. Changes can be made to a team’s entry until Saturday, February 24th at 7:00 am. After this time, drops will be allowed but not refunded. Any changes after this time should be communicated to the tournament manager. Adds will be allowed at the discretion of the tournament manager.
Please make sure that all of your speakers and judges have a live.speechwire.com account set up and accessible to them prior to Saturday morning.
Draws
Draws will be conducted live online via SpeechWire. Speakers will draw for Round 1 and Round 2 but will repeat a selection for Round 3. Extemporaneous Reading and Storytelling will use all cuttings. Ranges for Discussion sub-points will be sent out prior to the tournament date.
Judges
Please bring 1 judge for every 6 entries or fraction thereof. Judges should be available for all rounds and for any category assigned. If there are specific conflicts, please communicate them early.

We will plan to use electronic ballots and critiques at this tournament. If necessary, we will offer paper ballots and critique sheets to judges. Please let us know if any of your judges need to use paper materials. With online ballots, all critiques must be submitted prior to the end of the tournament.
