Event Description:
Our supplemental events were a highlight of last year’s Wildcat Invitational for competitors, coaches, and audience members alike. In addition to being a whole lot of fun, these events provide a valuable opportunity for students to gain experience practicing fundamental forensics skills early in the season—without requiring any preparation prior to the tournament. Each competitor may enter one of the supplemental events: Impromptu Speaking, Improvisational Acting, or Spontaneous Argumentation. Following the last preliminary round of the regular events, a single supplemental preliminary round will be held. The top contestants who advanced to the finals in no more than two of their regular events will progress to the supplemental final round. Supplemental events will not be separated into varsity and novice divisions. Contestants in Improvisational Acting will be assigned to pairs or small groups and will improvise scenes according to the directions and prompts they are given.Supplemental events DO NOT contribute to a school’s judging quota.
