Judge Training

Thank you for your interest in serving as a judge for the Clayton Speech and Debate Team.  Please click the link below to peruse the judge training section of the NSDA website.  Here you will find sections on:

• Culturally competent judging (You can simply read through the handout, rather than taking the entire video course, as the handout sums things up quite nicely and briefly.)

• Speech events

• Debate events

• Congressional Debate

Most of our tournaments do not include World Schools Debate or Big Questions Debate, so don't feel the need to study those events, unless you're just curious.

Happy learning!
