Dear BCFL Family,

As we step into 2026, BC Forensic League is proud to move forward as
DebateOn Leadership Academy,
expanding our commitment to student leadership, growth, and community impact in the years ahead.

A New Name. A Renewed Vision.

We envision our association as a community that not only supports students academically through debate, but also nurtures them into confident, thoughtful leaders who are ready to make a positive impact. While our foundation in debate and speech remains at the heart of what we do, our vision continues to grow.

Alongside this transition, we are expanding our charitable mission to focus on supporting students from local communities and schools across the Lower Mainland of British Columbia, helping them grow into future leaders and meaningful contributors to society.

As we are currently in a transition phase, both names may appear in our communications. We kindly ask for your understanding during this period.

Thank you for your continued encouragement and support as we begin this new journey.

Warm regards,
DebateOn Leadership Academy
(Formerly BC Forensic League Association)
