About Tabroom.com

Goals

The goal of Tabroom.com is to provide a tournament management system to debate and speech tournaments worldwide, for as many formats of debate as possible. Tabroom is a project of the National Speech & Debate Association.

The Tabroom system can pair and tabulate IE, Congress, Debate, and Worlds Schools formats. It handles public pairings, enables judges to enter decisions and scores online, and publishes and track results all online. You can also run a tournament totally offline with Tabroom; online features are optional.

If you have a format of debate that isn't on our list, please let us know at help@tabroom.com. Please also test your format if you do not know that Tabroom has run your format or rules successfully before. There are a lot of settings in Tabroom but we cannot promise it will run your particular form of speech or debate without testing before your tournament

History

The Tabroom system began as two projects; the CAT (Computer Assisted Tab) and Tabroom.com.  It also owes a debt of inspiration, ideas and gratitude to Rich Edwards' foundational TRPC program.

The integrated tabulation system and features were supported by a grant from the Open Society Foundations. Tabroom is now owned & supported by the National Speech & Debate Association (formerly the National Forensic League).
