Northwood Speech & Debate Team is the #1 student-run Speech & Debate program in OC, sending multiple students to the highest levels of debate every year. Our team competes in an array of events, at State and National-level competitions.
We offer a wide variety of debate events (check out the list of events offered the Event Groups page). If you are interested in joining our team, please complete the google form below. Our club meets every Thursday at lunch in room 1303 (Riggan).
