SFK: Debating

Get ready to unleash your verbal prowess because we're entering into the hottest topic debates of the year, marking the penultimate round of our sizzling 2024 SFK competition! 🎤💬🔥

Hosted by the spectacular St Alberts College SFK team, this year's showdown is all about thinking on your feet with impromptu debates that will set the stage on fire. Each team gets a sweet 20 minutes of prep time, armed with just one phone to summon their debate muses. The number of teams in the ring will decide the debate count, and every team will be in for not one, but two debates, facing off against different opponents each time.

Speakers, you've got a maximum of 5 minutes to lay down your arguments, but beware of the timekeeper's symphony – the first bell at 4 minutes, a second at 4.5, and a full-on orchestra of continuous ringing after 5 minutes. Time's up, folks! ⏰

Now, mark your calendars because registrations kick off at 6pm, shutting down the debate party at 6:40pm sharp. If you're fashionably late, you might as well be debating with your couch at home because disqualification awaits teams arriving after 6:40pm.

The debate roadmap? Fear not, it'll be unveiled at the event's grand entrance and posted in the Intercollegiate Competitions Facebook group for all to see.
