We are hosting a series of after-school weeknight tournaments on LFS's campus in Lawrence. I assume its almost exclusively LFS competing against itself for practice debates. But others are welcome to join. If others join, welcome to compete in our division of Novice "Cross-Examination Debate" which has interestingly different speech times, but happens to use the NFHS topic. Or join us starting in Rd 2 and all non-LFS entries get a bye in R1. Whatever floats your boat!

4 rounds. We get out of school at 1:10p on Wednesdays. Times:

1:45p
3p
4:15p
5:30p

Speech time modifications
1AC is 8 mins, all other speeches, inclusive of CX, are 1 min shorter. Prep is 5 mins per team. Will have to hustle to each round.

Fees: $1 per entry.

Judges: Bring them.

Awards - some ducks, maybe some medals, maybe not.

I cannot express how low-key of an event this is, I intend that this is solely for LFS kids to have practice debates, but I'm just happy to welcome others if they wish to join us. There will likely be odd-sized panels etc. My goal is to make every HS student judge present have a ballot and let some kids have fun.
