Speech 2021 Schedule

Central Minnesota NSDA

District Speech Tournament

March 11-13, 2021

Tournament Schedule

Thursday, March 11        

Friday, March 12   

**Round 4 (and if necessary, Round 5) will only be run for those events needing additional preliminary rounds of competition in accordance with NSDA Guidelines established in the District Tournament Operations Manual under the California Plan.  Remember that because Central MN and Southern MN NSDA share the judging pool, it is highly likely that Central MN NSDA judges will be needed during Round 4. 

Throughout the day, judges may be judging in both Central AND Southern NSDA.  Be sure to consistently check your tabroom.com judge dashboard to see if you are judging at any given time.  Judges not assigned a round should remain on standbye until released.

Saturday March 13

PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU KNOW BEFORE THE TOURNAMENT BEGINS WHICH EVENTS ARE IN WHICH FLIGHTS.  Speaking order in a round cannot be changed due to confusion regarding start times.  A list of patterns/flights will be emailed to coaches by Monday, March 8.

ALSO, NOTE THAT IN SEMIFINALS ON SATURDAY, ALL EVENTS RUN IN BOTH FLIGHTS.  ALL EVENTS WILL HAVE ONE SEMIFINAL ROUND DURING FLIGHT A, AND ONE SEMIFINAL ROUND DURING FLIGHT B.  DURING FINALS, ROUNDS WILL BE SPLIT BACK INTO THE ORIGINAL PATTERNS FROM FRIDAY.  What this means: ALL ADVANCING SEMIFINALISTS MUST AWAKE AND READY TO COMPETE ON SATURDAY FOR THE FIRST FLIGHT ROUND.
