Melbourne Mini rego open
Wednesday 18 November, 2009

Every year MUDS hosts Melbourne Mini, a pre-Worlds BP tournament. This year it will be running from the 4th to the 6th of December. For just $75 for debaters, or $50 for adjudicators, you will get six rounds of debating, lunch, dinner, and plenty of opportunities for drunken antics if desired.

 

The tournament is once again pleased to be sponsored by Quarterly Essay
