Where: University of Toronto

globaldebateblog.blogspot.com/2010/07/hart-house-iv-2010-invitation.html

All debates will be in standard British Parliamentary format, using Worlds speaking times (7 minutes per speech). All resolutions will be tight-link, with our very capable CA ensuring a wide variety of topics are debated. There will be a hard cap of 80 teams.
 
There will be five preliminary rounds, with rounds 1-3 being open adjudication. If there are 80 registered teams, then we will break to quarter-finals. Otherwise, the top 8 teams will break to semis.

Awards will be given to the top 8 teams, top 10 speakers, top novice team, and top novice speaker.

The Chief Adjudicator of this year’s tournament is Richard Lizius. In addition to being selected as the North American DCA for 2010-2011 Botswana Worlds, Richard’s accomplishments include: WUDC 2nd speaker and quarter-finalist, Cork WUDC 9th speaker and octo-finalist, North American Top Speaker, 2 time CUSID national champion and top speaker, and 2009 Yale IV champion and top speaker. Our Assistant Chief Adjudicator will be Steven Penner.
 
In addition to Richard and Steve, Hart House has access to an incredibly deep judging pool. Between the Hart House debating club, Hart House alumni and other debaters in Toronto, we have multiple National and North American debating champions, as well as numerous members who have broken as judges or adjudicators at previous worlds. We're confident of the quality of judging in every room.
 
The equity officers for this year's tournament are Sima Atri and Ryan Andrade. An equity policy will be posted by October 1st.
 
Registration is $150 per team, and $70 per adjudicator, all prices in Canadian dollars. Registration begins September 1st, and ends October 5th. All schools must submit their non-refundable deposit by October 8th. The deposit is 50% of the total fees for the school.
