Welcome to The Jungle

October 25-26, 2024

Idaho Falls High School

Thank you for your interest in attending The Jungle Invitational! This is East Idaho’s only two-day debate only tournament, and we can’t wait to have you join.

Fees-

Because speech isn’t offered at this tournament, and it is a two-day tournament, entry fees will be $8 per person.

Events-

This year, the following events will be offered in both Novice and Varsity Divisions: LD, PF, Congress. World Schools Debate will be introduced this year and will be offered in a single "Open Division." Due to historically low numbers in Policy Debate at this tournament, we will not be offering Policy Debate this year.

The judge obligation will be:

One judge per 4 LD entries

One judge per 4 PF entries

One judge per 2 World Schools

One judge per 5 Congress entries

Topics-

This year, we will be running the SEPTEMBER/OCTOBER topics for LD & PF. World Schools topics and the Congress Docket are posted on their own pages to the right!
