Membership Fees (Yearly, required of all schools who attend at least one tournament):
$110 -- "Founders Level" Membership

Tournament Entry Fees:
$5 - Each participant in a workshop/scrimmage
$10 - Each covered team (IPDA or Parli) entered into a tournament (1 judge covers 2 teams)
$50 - Each uncovered team entered into a tournament (note: a full team fee is charged for Maverick parli teams, which a half-fee is charged for each member of a hybrid parli team)

Financial Hardship Waiver:
Programs facing significant budget restrictions may discuss a financial hardship membership and/or entry fee waiver with a member of the LPDL board.

Entry Limit (*New for LPDL #3-4*):

In an effort to encourage participation across both IPDA and Parli, promote diversity in opponents and avoid excessive BYE or intra-squad rounds, the LPDL board has determined that a 6-entry limit will be placed on entries in each debate format (max of 6 in IPDA, max of 6 in Parli). Entries beyond 6 are subject to tournament staff approval.
