Sandra W Silvers Invitational
2021 — NSDA Campus, GA/US
Sandra W Silvers Invitational
The Calhoun High School Speech and Debate Team invites you to the 2021 Sandra W. Silvers Invitational Tournament to be held online. This year, the tournament will be a one day tournament in order to allow students to participate online. ● Registration opens on September 20th at 8 AM.
● Problems or DROPS? Contact Kelli De Guire by text or phone-770-773-6806. Any teams not registered at the end of registration will not be paired.
● The Rookie division will be for those debaters that have no previous debate experience. (Meaning no middle school debate, no debate camp, etc.) We will follow the GFCA rules for novices. Packet information: http://www.gaspeechanddebate.org/novice.
● The Novice division will be for FIRST YEAR debaters. We will follow the GFCA rules for novices. Packet information: http://www.gaspeechanddebate.org/novice. There will be break rounds for all debate divisions.
● Lincoln Douglas Debate, Policy Debate, and Public Forum, may not double enter.
● Due to being online, it's particularly essential that people hire their own judges. We will have a very limited number of judges for hire. We don't make any money on hired judging — the entire fee goes to hiring, transporting, and housing the judge. Hired judges are $150.
● No elimination rounds. Emergency phone number is 770.773.6806
Sincerely, Kelli De Guire Calhoun Speech and Debate
