Program Description

Event Details

Welcome to the Teen Debate Club — a place to explore big ideas, sharpen your thinking, and build your confidence in public speaking.

In each session, you'll be given a thought-provoking topic to debate. Members will be divided into two teams: one supporting the topic (pro) and one opposing it (con). Each team will have 30 minutes to prepare their arguments and strategies.

After prep time, the 30-minute debate begins. Teams will take turns presenting opening statements, responding to each other's points, and delivering closing arguments. It’s a great way to develop critical thinking, teamwork, and communication skills — all in a supportive and engaging environment.

Whether you're new to debating or already love to argue your point, this club is a great opportunity to learn, grow, and have your voice heard.
