Extemp Prep - MU 211

Dear PSCFA Community,

Welcome to the 2023-2024 forensics season!

It is time to get the competition year started at the PSCFA Warm-up at El Camino College on Saturday and Sunday, September 30th and October 1st.

There are numerous reasons why your team should choose The Warm-Up to start off the competitive year. First, the Warm-Up is a great way to introduce students who are new to competitive collegiate forensics to the activity in a relaxed environment. It also allows returning students to ease into the new year. Second, it is a wonderful way to catch up with all of your forensics colleagues and meet coaches who are new to our region. Finally, it provides the opportunity to try out new topics and approaches to our activity.

Key Points:

• Registration: Entries are due by Tuesday, September 26th at 6:00 PM on the Forensics Tournament website.

• Judging: Each school must cover its judging commitment (you may only enter uncovered slots if prior tournament approval is granted). All judges must read and sign the PSCFA Judge’s handbook and complete the F.R.E.D. Certification each year. Any judges you wish to pay through the tournament need to be designated as ICC judges when you enter them.

• Direction: El Camino College’s address is 16007 Crenshaw Blvd. Torrance, CA 90506. The tournament headquarters and registration will be in the Music Building.

• Parking: Attendees should park in Lots J or K (Closest to the Music and Social Science buildings). These are staff parking lots BUT you are allowed to park there on the weekend for free!

• Tournament Service: On Saturday, the 30th, we will offer four rounds of Open, Junior, and Novice NFA-LD, NPDA and IPDA debate. On Sunday, the 1st, we will offer two rounds of all PSCFA individual events for Open, Junior, and Novice competitors. Divisions may be collapsed due to lack of entries.

We look forward to seeing you at PSCFA Warm-Up!
