2020-21 Debate Schedule

Due to the pandemic, CDA will hold it's 2020-21 tournaments online as "virtual" or "eTournaments". This is explained in the CDA Online Procedures Guide. You should review this material with all of your debaters and judges prior to the tournament.

Registration for CDA tournaments is through tabroom.com, a free service to the debate community hosted by the National Speech and Debate Association (NSDA). CDA has written brief Instructions for using tabroom to help guide you through the process. Registration for each tournament opens approximately two weeks before the tournament date.
