Speech competition will be held in Oral Interpretation of Literature, Program Oral Interpretation, Oratorical Declamation, Original Oratory, Dramatic Interpretation, Humorous Interpretation, Duo Interpretation, Impromptu Speaking, and Extemporaneous Speaking.
We appreciate the consistent support that we have received through the years and as such our tournament has continued to grow in quality and quantity. The tournament is a qualifier for the Tournament of Champions in Lincoln-Douglas, Public Forum, and Speech.
The Holy Cross Navy and Old Gold Debate and Speech Exhibition will not be considering independents for entry. Please ensure your coach or other adult representative signs you up through your school and that you can meet the judging requirement or can hire rounds.
Best wishes as you begin the school year and we look forward to seeing you in September!
Sincerely,
Sasha T. Kreinik
