This tournament is designed for first year debaters. The majority of the entry will be kids from South Dakota who are taking an intro to debate class. For most, this will be their first debate experience. We are offering LD (Novice Topic from the NSDA) and PF. PLEASE make sure you have cases ready to go AND you can stay the entire tournament. There will be no sharing cases or asking for cards.

You need to provide a judge to cover an entry. In years past non-South Dakota teams did not provide a judge and that stressed the judge pool. If you do not have a judge on the zoom- I will drop you.

We are using ZOOM! You need to click on the zoom link either on this home page, OR in the numerous emails I sent out.

Think of Zoom as a school and Tabroom just tells you the pairings.CLICKING ON THE LINK IN TAB WILL NOT WORK.
