San Fran Bay District Qualifier

for the 2023 National Tournament

Audit Procedures

As required by the NSDA, we will follow strict audit procedures to minimize the chances of any tabulation errors. It is critical that all coaches pay close attention to these matters.

After each debate round, we will make ballots and results available to all coaches for review. It is the responsibility of every coach to carefully review results for his/her students and raise any questions or concerns with the tab staff promptly.

Rounds 1 and 2 are pre-set, but beginning with round 2 we will allow a 15-minute period after publishing round results to coaches for any protests before proceeding with pairing the subsequent round.

And it will be particularly important for coaches to review results after round 4 because those results will determine which debaters advance to elimination rounds.

Thanks for your help ensuring that we have the best possible national qualifying tournament!
