About NTU Inter Tertiary Pro-Ams Debating Championship 2008 NTU Debating Society is proud to host the NTU Inter Tertiary Pro-Ams Debating Championship 2008. The Pro-Ams, in its 2nd edition this year, is a debating tournament held to encourage new debaters, and give them exposure to the world of debating. This tournament gives novice debaters and adjudicators a platform to familiarize themselves with the British Parliamentary style of debating, under the guidance of experienced debaters. The World Universities Debating Championship (WUDC) is also held in the British Parliamentary style. While allowing the novices to develop and refine their debating skills, it also provides experienced debaters an opportunity to brush up their skills. This year, we are introducing a separate JC break which would permit more JC teams to enter break rounds. Accordingly, there would be a separate JC final to decide Pro-Ams JC Champions 2008. The 2008 edition of the championship will be held on the 13th and 14th of September 2008. We look forward to organizing an event that will garner an active interest in debating among the student population of Singapore and the neighbouring region. Pro-Ams would be one of the first debating tournaments in the region in the new academic year. Jayesh Kannan |
