Check-in at NFL Nationals begins today and competition gets under way tomorrow. PFDebate is not in Las Vegas, but we will be doing our best to follow along from home. We have asked Public Forum Debate participants to de-cloak by sending us their code, names, and school so that we can help provide meaning to everyone following at a distance.

Victory Briefs Daily and Georgia Forensics are providing on-site coverage of the tournament and are also working on breaking codes.

Public Forum Deabate teams are guaranteed six rounds of debate with two judges per round. Teams with at least eight ballots will advance to Round 7. From Round 7 on, teams will be eliminated when they have two loses.

Here is the Public Forum Debate schedule for the week. Times are Pacific Daylight Time.
