Judges: We plan to recruit a diverse group of community member judges for our rounds. However, it is likely that we will ask some coaches and assistants to cover a few rounds. We are a small squad this year, so if our tournament becomes large (or if the kids come up way short), we do reserve the right to ask all schools in attendance to help us cover judging.

Sweepstakes will be based on your top 15 across all SATURDAY SPEECH EVENTS.

The top six competitors in Individual Events will advance to finals and receive medals for their placement. The top two schools in sweepstakes points will receive trophies.
