The second annual NYSDCA State Tournament will take place on March 31 and April 1, 2012 at the Bronx High School of Science. Bronx Science is located at:

75 West 205th Street
Bronx, NY 10468

The full invitation is available by clicking here.

To qualify, a student/team needs 4 points. In the team debate activities, each member of the team must have 4 points, but not necessarily as that team. At least 2 points must be achieved at a tournament physically in New York State. Tournaments with elimination rounds (breaking less than 50% of a division) = anyone breaking to the first elim round gets 4 points. Tournaments without elimination rounds (minimum of three rounds and 5 schools participating) = top 25% = 2 points. All member schools allowed one at-large entry in each event (not each level of each event).

Fees for the tournament: $20 per person.
