Lincoln Douglas April Tournament Open to All

2026 — Online, CA/US

Main

NUMBER OF TEAMS REGISTERED: 1 [I will update this number at least once per day]. 1:55 PM PST, 04/15/2026

Hello everyone!

This tournament is open to anybody at any level. We will be using the Lincoln Douglas March/April topic.

In order to make this tournament accessible, the entry fee is only $10. Judge obligation: 1 per two entries.

We will be one judge short. If somebody provides an extra judge they will NOT have to pay the entry fee. If we cannot find a judge, then that round will be decided afterwards by the debaters. I understand that that might sound really bad, but it will be at max only one round per debater. More details will follow.

We will be having 4 rounds, and then up to 2 elimination rounds depending on how many people enter.

MAIN GOOGLE MEET: [link coming soon]. Join this after every round, before every round. If you are not there 15 minutes before the round I will assume that you are not participating.
