The 1st Annual It's-too-close-to-winter-break-and-we-don't-have-to-worry-about-a-snowstorm-when-we're-online Novice Tournament
On Tabroom.com, this is called Novice at North because Tabroom thought that our working title was too long. North Catholic and North Allegheny are the hosts on record.
These are all asynchronous events. Students can do as many as they want.
We are working loosely with the word “Novice.” We want newer competitors to work on their current piece – but varsity competitors who want to try a new category can do so!
Freshmen who just started this year – any event.
Older interpers can try OO or Extemp (sorry, older kids who do DI – you can’t do prose or HI, et al…). Older kids in debate – try interp! Extempers – OO and interp would love to work with you!
The judge quota is 1 for 5. And older students CAN judge this. If you are doing an event, we will block you from it.
