We will have two pods of 7 teams each. The pods will be split based on competitive success and account for geographic and gender diversity. Each preliminary round will have two judges and the top two teams from each pod will be invited to compete in the elimination debates. Once again, we do expect all debates to be livestreamed with links provided to each team after the round robin so you can use them to continue to improve throughout the rest of your season.
At this time, we ask you to enter your judges for the round robin or indicate to us if you need to hire someone. The Ivy Street Round Robin prides itself on only having highly trained, experienced judges at the tournament. We do ask that your judges are either debate alumni, active or former college debaters, or your debate coaches. You can count on us hiring active high school and college debate program directors, college debaters, former public forum debaters and other highly qualified individuals to fill th e rest of the judge pool.
Following the completion of the round robin and the Emory tournament, we will mail each team their swag box they'd traditionally receive if they were in person. We will collect this information from the Tabroom registration pages - please use the "Refund" box to indicate where you'd like your items mailed and complete the T-Shirts tab on the registration portal - each team gets 3 t-shirts (2 competitors and 1 coach). You can purchase additional t-shirts for the price we are charged (usually $8-12).
You can expect from us: t-shirts that commemorate the 2022 Ivy Street Round Robin, a small gift from Marist School and any trophies that you or your partner earn. We will give out speaker awards to the top five speakers in each pod. The speaker awards will continue to be custom trophies of the Atlanta skyline despite us each debating from home. Each team in the elimination rounds will receive an Eagle to recognize their achievement. These Eagles are from the NSDA and will be shipped straight from the NSDA offices. When they are mailed, the NSDA will send you a tracking number so you can have an idea of when they'll arrive.
Payment for the round robin can be done in two ways - either through our credit card link or paying by check. The check instructions are now available on the invoice.
