Free Growth-Focused Online Practice Opportunities for Your Students Your team is invited to join fellow speech and debate students across the nation for a variety of free, after-school, online practice sessions through our Springboard Series this October and November. Events are open to all—no membership required. During our online scrimmages, we hold one session of Congress and two rounds of speech and debate. Then, students receive written feedback and ranks just like at a live tournament, and member students will earn tournament points for participating. This is an excellent opportunity to grow your students’ confidence and performance pre-competition. Check the full schedule and register today!

Plan Ahead for Trophy Orders
Due to a nationwide shortage of materials, the NSDA Trophy Shop may experience delays with fulfilling orders. Pricing may be impacted as material costs have risen by as much as 30%, and certain items may not be available. Despite these challenges, we will continue to work with you to produce high quality custom awards in a timely manner. To ensure your orders arrive in time for your events, please contact Trophy Shop Manager Chad Wagner to review order options and pricing. Thank you for your patience and understanding!
