WS Finals – Impromptu Motion |
*We don’t have Opposition prep rooms for preliminary debates with impromptu motions. The tournament will provide an Opposition prep room for the finals impromptu motion. World Schools gets the UTC building the whole weekend – it’s our best competition building. We don’t have the available rooms to run a full speech and debate tournament and reserve rooms that will only be utilized for preparing impromptu motions.
