MUDS runs regular member training nights for members. These nights include a variety of debating and adjudication training sessions and are a great way to learn the secrets of our top debaters!

These nights are a perfect way to meet members of the club, practice your debating before internal competitions and IVs and try new types of debating. They are also great for people unable to commit to the full course of a competition but want a chance to debate anyway! So come along on a Tuesday night, and let MUDS show you the fantastic world that is, debating!

Day: Tuesdays 
Time: 5.30-7.30pm
Location: Level 10, Redmond Barry Building
