Seven Lakes Spartan Symposium

September 18-19, 2026

We are excited to invite you to our fully in-person tournament hosted at Seven Lakes HS - 9251 S Fry Road, Katy, TX 77494!

We will offer all TFA Individual Qualifying Events, as well as Prose, Poetry, and Impromptu. Speech events will have 2 prelims, and any event over 25 entries will advance to semifinals. LD and PF will have 6 prelims and advance all 4-2 teams to elimination rounds. We will not break brackets. Beginning in round 3 of all debate events, rounds will be power-matched high-low.

In all TFA qualifying events for IEs (including duo and duet), finals will be paneled. In all TFA qualifying events for debate, semis and finals will be paneled. We will panel additional elims as judging permits.


Our tournament has excellent hospitality, with homemade food provided by the SLHS Speech and Debate Booster Club, single-flighted debate rounds, and will run on time.

We hope that you will be able to join us! Do not hesitate to reach out with any questions.

Best,
