Potomac Spring Championships

2021 — Online, MD/US

Welcome to the Potomac Spring Championships, held online on May 1, 2021. 

Please note, the Potomac Spring Championships is only open for current students of Potomac Debate Academy.

 

Zoom Links:

Our tournament will be using separate Zoom links for all divisions. Students and judges will sign in to the Zoom for their assigned division (Judge will have their division assignments emailed to them before the tournament starts). We will be posting rounds here on Tabroom and then inviting students and judges into breakout rooms for each round. Once rounds are completed students and judges are asked to return to the main breakout room to wait for posting for the next round.

 

 

Camera Use and Names in Zoom:

In order to make things as easy as possible for us to pair/place teams and judges into rooms we are asking teams to label themselves in Zoom with their team name first and the student name second (ex: Potomac CC: Kirsten Craft or Potomac CC: Elisa Chen). This will let us find partnerships within Zoom so we make sure we get students into the proper breakout room. Judges, we ask that you list your name and put judge in front of your name (ex: Judge – Kirsten Craft) so we can more easily find you all within Zoom).
