Observers

If any institution would like to bring observers to the tournament, please indicate on the institution registration form. Note that observers will have to pay a registration fee of $125

Drivers

Institutions travelling by road and wish to have their driver/s stay at the University residences please indicate on the registration form. Note that drivers will have to pay a registration fee of $125. A hotel list is also attached if institutions wish to book their drivers into the closest hotels to campus.

University Officials

We’ve had quite a number of requests of institutions wishing to bring their University officials, because we would have to make special provision for them in residences as they are not participants and are elderly compared to participants.  The registration fee is $250. Should University Officials not wish to stay in University residences, a hotel list is attached to book into the closest hotels to campus.

Yours in debate,
