Students are limited to a triple-entry per pattern (NO student may be entered in more than six I.E.s total; three per 

each pattern). 

NFA-LD: If a student is entered in NFA-LD, he/she is LIMITED to one event entry in both Pattern A and Pattern B. (NO 

student entered in NFA-LD may be entered in more than two other I.E.s total; one per each pattern). 

NFA-LD students will be scheduled first (or as close as possible) in both Pattern A and Pattern B. NFA-LD DEBATERS 

NEED TO HELP US KEEP THE TOURNAMENT ON TIME. Please encourage your debaters to monitor time 

carefully, get to Pattern A and Pattern B events quickly, and leave appropriately if it is time to get to a debate round.  

If a competitor is entered in both NFA-LD and Extemp, he/she will be scheduled first (or as close as possible) in Extemp 

draw and his/her other Pattern A event (if applicable) to ensure he/she can get to the NFA-LD round on time.  

If a competitor breaks in both NFA-LD quarter-finals and Extemp and/or other Pattern A events, he/she will be 

scheduled first (or as close as possible) in Extemp and his/her other I.E. event (if applicable) to ensure he/she can get to 

the NFA-LD quarter-final round on time. 

If a competitor breaks in both NFA-LD semi-finals and Pattern B events, he/she will debate first, and then immediately go 

to his/her Pattern B finals. 

In order to have the tournament run on time, oral critiques will be STRONGLY discouraged. Hartnell College cannot 

ensure a timely tournament if this standard is not followed.
