This tournament is face-to-face. Public safety is our top concern during the pandemic.

All attendees and staff of this tournament will be required to wear a mask at all times when in the building unless actively eating or drinking. This includes during speeches. 

If you are not feeling well, have symptoms of COVID-19, have been instructed to quarantine by your school or health department due to exposure, or have tested positive for COVID-19, you should not attend. We will waive fees of anyone who needs to drop due to this issue.

You will be assigned to a “school room.” Unless entries are low, your school room will also be used for debates. Please leave the room after receiving pairings so debates can occur. Please do not enter the school room unless accompanied by your coach or chaperone. Do not enter any other room without a judge present.

We will not have an awards ceremony; awards will be delivered to your school room upon the conclusion and tabulation of round 3.
