69th Annual Bellaire Forensic Tournament

2025 — Bellaire, TX/US

Dear Colleagues,

Please accept this as your personal invitation to attend the 69th Annual Bellaire Forensic Tournament. This year's tournament will be in-person at Bellaire High School. The Bellaire Forensic Tournament is the longest continuously running tournament in Houston ISD and is hosted by one of the oldest and most storied programs in the state of Texas.

The Bellaire Forensic Tournament is proud to be a TFA State qualifier that offers all TFA events, as well as Prose and Poetry. We are proud to be a Quarter-Finals qualifier for the Tournament of Champions (TOC) in Public Forum Debate and a Top 6 qualifier in Congress. We are also a NIETOC and TOC bid tournament for individual events, based on total event entry.

This year we will continue to have one of the best Tabrooms in the country. We are excited about the schedule of events, level of competition, and quality of judging provided this year at the BFT. We hope you can participate!

Sincerely,

Isaac Chao
Bellaire High School
