Tournament Invitation

Dear Coaches,

The Burlington High School Forensics team would like to invite your team to compete at our tournament on Tuesday March 10th. Final drops and changes are due by March 1st. You will be accountable for paying for any drops made after the 1st. IEs - $5/ students, Duo/IDA $10. Initial registration and live updates will be available on Tabroom- http://bhswildcatsinvitational.tabroom.com/ We will offer the following events:

Entries: Students may enter three events. With the following stipulations: Do NOT enter the same student in two draw events (unless one is impromptu), and they may not hold up the tournament waiting to perform any of their events. We will medal the top six in each event. The top three schools in sweepstake points will receive plaques.

Nearby food options:

• Sonic

• Pizza Hut

• Subway

• Dairy Queen

Locations: Tab will be in the Multi Media Room and open to coaches only. Ballots will be made available ASAP in the Multi Media Room. Hospitality will be in the FACS Room. Extemp Prep will be in the Library. Awards will be grab and go from the Multi Media Room.

Judges: We should have enough judges, but if we get desperate, we might ask coaches to judge.

Performance Order Expectations: Any student who does not perform within the time limits of the round as posted will not be allowed to perform or will receive the last rank in the round. This is at the discretion of the tournament director. The posted speaking order must be followed in Extemp and IDA. They should then arrange to participate in additional event(s) either before their scheduled “draw” time, or after their scheduled speaking time. Extempers that are triple entered are NOT guaranteed that they will be able to perform in all 3 of their events. Extempers enter 3 events at their own risk.

Students may not enter the same event twice. Rounds will start and end ON TIME to the best of my ability. If a student does not show up to perform in the correct room, they will receive the last rank for that round.
