Changes

1 – Saturday/Sunday Schedule, 5 prelims(we can side equalize for elims or make Round 5 a flip, if people care about those things)

schedule below

-We chose 5 prelims to maximize winning records/quals– if everyone entered is qualled and we’d prefer to have another prelim debate, I can adjust the schedule and make Elim 1 a prelim.

2 – JV/Novice Combined

-Tentatively planned for five debates, but drops are likely in younger divisions and we will probably need to do 4 debates.

3 – Will award a coach of the year and emerging debaters of the year but not an All-American team. The winner will receive the Wheel trophy, donated by the Spicer Debate Forum.I’ll bring it to NFA!

4 – No entry fees
