Capitol Valley District Qualifier

for the 2024 National Tournament

Welcome to the National Qualifiers for CVFL!

This will be a multi day tournament spread out over three days on two weekends; Speech and Debate events will be held April 5th and 6th while Congressional Debate and Big Question will be held March 23rd.

Schools will get a number of entries based on their number of degrees as shown when putting entries in. As a level 1 district, as long as an event has at least four entries from at least two schools, there will be ONE qualifiers for that event; if entries reach 16 we will get a second and 32 to get a third.

House and Senate: The Senate will need to have SIX or more schools entered with a total of 10 or more students to get two qualifying spots (new this year from eight in past) while the House needs at least 16 entries for two qualifiers; four qualifiers at 30 or more entries and six if we reached 59 or more entries.
