Team Events in Same Room: All Duo teams, and those PFD and Policy teams who choose to compete with both team members in the same room, must have parents’ or guardians’ express permission to do so.

Judging Requirement: One Speech/Congress judge for every four (4) entries. One LD/PFD judge for every two (2) entries. One Policy judge for each Policy team. COACHES: Do not count yourself in your judge quota as we must be able to use you where needed! Judges should be cross-trained.

The “No emails or texts” box in the profile MUST be unchecked to ensure that round postings can be delivered. All participants should ensure that their accounts are active and linked at least 24 hours before the tournament by logging into Tabroom.
