Preseason

Meet & greet between all parties involved in this season.  The topic of the season will be chosen and signed off by an admin.  The layout of the actual debate will be officially set. Broadcast dates will be sent to the SMA’s and the advertising for this season will be signed off on by the President.

Session Date: TBD

Student Presentation
Week 1
  • Each team will meet at the assigned time and date to state their viewpoint on the “Issue/Problem.” 

  • Each team will need to state not only the “Issue/Problem” itself but their particular view as far as the cause.

  • All work must be fully documented with adequate supporting documentation before they will be allowed to proceed forward.

Week 2
  • Each team will meet at the assigned time and date to create their solution to the “Issue/Problem.” Any form of traditional media, including being not limited to, self-created media shall be submitted to the administrator before the end of week 2. 

  • All work must be fully documented with adequate supporting documentation before they will be allowed to proceed forward.

Classmates in Library
Children at School
Week 3
  • Each team will meet at the assigned time and date to create a solution to the “Issue/Problem.”  This solution will be presented as a fully budgeted and designed project to be put into action in their local community, including all documentation that will be needed if their team wins.

  • All work must be fully documented with adequate supporting documentation before they will be allowed to proceed forward.

Week 4
  • Show Time! Each team will meet on Zoom in a six on six debate in which every aspect of the plan will be put to the test.  We will be broadcasting live on Facebook & Twitch. The viewers will have a significant role with their input as far as which team has clearly stated not only the “Issue/Problem” but also how the problem has come about. That will lead to the reason in which they have come up with their solution and how they plan to implement it. Each part of the process will be assigned a point system.

  • Each team will layout their work showing each step of the process. Team Leaders will meet with the Program Director to provide input on the “day of debate layout.” The key to this is to not only develop your debate skills but also to show your management potential and project development skills as well. The idea I have is for each team leader to be able to grow their team with social media advertising and tapping into their current debate contacts. We as an organization have no issue whatsoever, helping each leader amass a team. The only thing to be aware of is, when you complete the season, the winning team will receive fundraising support to hit the budgeted target amount. Our organization will then proceed to assist you in your squad putting your plan into action. Please keep all these factors in mind when you are in the Week 1 and 2 phases of the season.
