SpeechWire Tournament Services - Forensics Tournament Software

Dear Forensic Colleagues:

We invite you and your teams to join us for the 2024-2025 Valley Forensic League season! We are thrilled to offer speech and parliamentary debate competition November 15-16 in Moorhead, MN at Concordia College-Moorhead.

The full invitation can be found here: VFL 1-2 Invitation

The competition will offer all 11 AFA-NST events on both days as well as parliamentary debate on Saturday. We will recognize all finalists in each event, top novice in each event, and the top three teams. We will also recognize outround participants in debate.

League fees for the year are $125.00 and covers event entry and some refreshments for participants. If you paid your league fees at VFL 1-2, then this charge will be removed. The league fees do not cover uncovered judge slots, which will be $15.00 per uncovered slot. One judge will cover 6 entries, or a portion thereof. Debate judges cover 2 entries. Schools are asked to cover all slots whenever possible to cut down on hired judge costs. All judges are expected to help cover final rounds.

More details on VFL 1-2 will be provided below. If you have any questions about the tournament, please feel free to contact any member of the VFL Executive Committee. On behalf of the Executive Committee, we hope to see you in Moorhead, MN!
