Because we are using WFCA rules rather than WHSFA, we do not require the use of the 5 box rubric. Instead, the “Comments” box is where comments can be listed out, so this is intended functionality.
Current WFCA Rules can be found on the WFCA website.
So one way you can write out your comments in a way like this (broadly speaking of course):
Positives
Good pacing
Nice inflection
Improvements
Over time
Stronger argument

WFCA and WHSFA Rules
We have a balance of teams from both WFCA and WHSFA. Therefore we are allowing speaker stands (Ext, Farago, Group, Oratory, Prose, Poet, Special Occasion). Chairs allowed in Group, and solo serious and humorous. Notes ARE allowed in Oratory. The full chart of differences can be found on page 3 of the WFCA handbook. Additionally no penalty for short OIL or Informative speeches.
