STATE TEAM TRIALS
Trials for the 2026 South Australian state debating team are now open and we encourage debating students in year 9 and above, to sign up and attend.
Being a part of the state team is an incredible opportunity to enhance your debating skills and be a part of a unique and fun experience with a team of like minded individuals.
The benefits of trialling extend much further -
it is an excellent opportunity for your own development as a debater.
The trialling process involves participation in one or multiple debates with peers, as well as a seminar delivered by the coaches of the state team.
It cannot be understated how valuable it is for students and for teams to attend these trials.
