To provide a debate education to as students as possible, we have decided to lower our prices by 50%. This means that the cost of each Maverick Debate camp session will drop from $220 to $110.

Our session 2 students and instructors!

Yesterday was our last day for session 2! We had our semifinal and finals as well as our speech presentation/awards ceremony!

Today was day 1 of our end of camp tournament! Each student was able to debate in 2 full length debates on whether or not America should accede to the United Nations convention on the law of the seas. Additionally, students also rehearsed their speeches on stage and played some debate games. For example, students could win a prize by talking about a specific topic for one minute without any fluency breaks or filler words.

Students participated in their first practice debates today!

Today students participated in some more spar debates, presented their articles about UNCLOS, practiced their analytic responses, and started working on their cases/speeches for the end of camp.

Some activities we did today include the questioning drill, card drill, and spar debates. We also had a demo debate among the teachers:
