NCFCA (National Christian Forensics Communication Association) is a speech and debate organization whose goal is to challenge and equip ambassadors for Christ to communicate truth with integrity and grace. For more than twenty years, NCFCA has been hosting tournaments around the country to help youth aged 12-18 learn and strengthen speaking skills while meeting new friends in a vibrant, faith-filled community.
Devin Spanier, a freshman starting his second year of debate with NCFCA, says that “NCFCA offers a variety of speech and debate events that cater to the different interests and skills of the students so that they can excel in the events they are best at.”
“It’s super fun,” Eleanor Kraft, a sophomore entering her third competitive season adds. “The friendships and memories I’ve made along with the speaking experience I have gained are priceless.”
NCFCA is ultimately dependent on one thing to make every tournament successful: community judges.
Would you consider judging a round of speech or debate?
A judge’s experience will include a brief training video, watching and listening to the students compete, filling out ballots to rank the competitors, and offering feedback on their performance. No prior experience is necessary; judges from a variety of backgrounds result in well-rounded feedback and fair results. Judging a round is about a three-hour commitment, and community service hours can be validated upon request.
To judge a round of speech or debate, please go to https://ncfca.org/judge-a-tournament/
If you have any questions about the judging proces, please contact Heather Griswold at [email protected] or call (612) 229-4823.
