Welcome to the Orange County Speech League's 2018 State Qualifying Debate Tournament, to be hosted by Fairmont Prep, in Anaheim, on Saturday & Sunday, March 2nd and 3rd.

Location

Fairmont Preparatory Academy

2200 W. Sequoia Ave.

Anaheim, CA 92801

Students may only enter one debate event. 

All students may enter as long as their teams are current with their CHSSA dues. No restrictions on entries will be placed. (Change only for 2019)

Debate Topics

We will be utilizing the January/February LD topic, and the February PF topic. Please see the link on the right for more information. 

Format

Similar to CHSSA State tournament's new practices as of 2019: Four preliminary rounds with a break to quarters. A run off will be done for debate events with an odd number of slots to State.  

Judging

Schools are required to bring  one judge for every three debaters/teams. We will be hiring as many judges as we can but we still expect judges to come and to stay. 

If schools need different judges for each day that is fine, please send me an email so I can enter in that information. 

Entry Limits

All events will be capped at 10 entries per school. 

League Dues Invoice

League Dues are $30.00 per school per year.  These are expected to be paid at or before a school's first OCSL tournament of the year.  An invoice specifically for league dues is located on the front page of each OCSL tournament website.  These dues only need to be paid once per year, not for each tournament.
