The Australasian Juniors is a two-day online World Schools tournament for younger debaters, run by EduDrift on Zoom and Slack. Five preliminary rounds on the Saturday, then four elimination rounds on the Sunday, with a mix of prepared, impromptu and silent-prep rounds. Every student receives a certificate, a performance star chart and written feedback from the judging panel.
Rounds run on Singapore time from 8:00 AM to 6:30 PM each day. For families in Dubai that is 4:00 AM to 2:30 PM; for US families it is overnight, so this tournament suits our Asia and Gulf students best. The schedule on this page shows your own time zone.
