Hello! I am a high school debate student. I did Debate my Freshman year, skipped a couple of years and now I am doing it as a Senior. I am open-minded to arguments. When you speak, please speak with articulation and conviction. You can talk faster than a conversational rate just dont spread. If your opponent slips up in cross-examination please talk about it in your speech.

1. Be Professional
2. NO SPREADING. If I can't keep up, I will stop flowing the debate.
3. Clash is key. Go line-by-line and pick apart every bit of your opponents case while you build your own case back up.
4. Good debaters are good communicators.
