Dear Forensics Coach: 
 
On behalf of UWEC Forensics, I am pleased to invite you to the 47th annual UW-Eau Claire Invitational Speech Tournament. The full invitation can be found as a Google Doc here
 
The tournament will be hosted in person on the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire campus Saturday, February 3rd, 2024. We will be offering the following events, adapted from the Wisconsin Forensic Coaches’ Association (WCFA): 
 
Duo Interpretation
Expository Speaking
Extemporaneous Speaking
Farrago
Group Interpretive Reading
Impromptu Speaking
Informative Speaking
Moments in History
Oral Interpretation of Literature
Oratory
Play Acting
Poetry
Prose
Public Address (WISDAA)
Radio Announcing
Solo Acting (Humorous)
Solo Acting (Serious)
Special Occasion Speaking
Storytelling
 
Because we serve both WFCA and WISDAA participating schools, the following exceptions are made: 
one 4 X 6 note card will be allowed in Oratory 
In making allowances for WISDAA participating schools, Group Interpretation and Play Acting may be up to 12 minutes long and use chairs/stools. 
Solo Acting categories may use a single stationary chair, in keeping with WISDAA allowances.  may be used to allow for WISDAA schools to compete without adaptation.  
Informative Speaking will be treated as Informative/Demonstration Speaking, allowing for either 1 or 2 speakers. 
 
For the exact WFCA rules please go to www.wfcaforensics.org. For the differences between the two, we are attaching a page towards the end of the invite. 
 
We are thrilled to continue our commitment to first-rate competition and education through the asynchronous tournament experience. We will offer four preliminary rounds and no finals, with competition. All events will be reviewed by four judges. We will recognize the top six students in each event and the top five schools.  TEAM SWEEPS WILL BE BASED ON THE TOP FIVE STUDENTS IN EACH EVENT.  
 
The following pages will give you all the details of the tournament and how to enter.  If there is any way we can be of help, please give us a call.  We look forward to seeing you, and providing a stimulating and comfortable competitive setting for your students. 
 
We are looking forward to hosting you in the first week of February!
 
Sincerely,
