Great Openings

Great openings set the tone for the debate.
Great openings get the judge listening.
Great openings put your team out in front.
Great openings must be written before the debate.
Great openings should be checked by your coach.
Be a great team player and bring one great opening for each of the four debates.
Be a great team player and bring one for both prop and opp!
See you Wednesday.
