Double Entry Policy: There are no event patterns for this tournament, so students can choose any 2 of events of choice. Therefore, students must notify their judge at the start of the round if they are double-entered, allowing the judge to adjust the speaking order accordingly. Please ask students compete in the event in which they are the higher speaker order. For example, if a student is speaker 1 in OO and speaker 3 in INFO, they should go to their OO round first.
If a student is unable to complete both of their speeches within the allocated round time, they may risk disqualification. Students are permitted to enter a maximum of 2 events.
If a student is participating in Extemp, please compete their Extemp event first.
Extemp Prep will be held in Room 98B and will start on 30 minutes before scheduled time. Students are not allowed to compete in both IX and IX. They must choose one. However, they are allowed to double-enter in Extemp + another event.
Please note that students must have competed in at least ONE prior league tournament to be eligible for IE Quals.
