| NCFCA
offers 2 styles of debate: |
| |
|
| |
NCFCA Lincoln Douglas and
Team Policy debate encourages a conversational style of debate
and utilizes judges from the community (as well as debate coaches
and teachers) in order to ensure that competitors learn how to
communicate to a general audience. |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
Lincoln Douglas |
| |
|
| |
The Lincoln Douglas debate
format of one-on-one debating, is named after the famous debates
between Stephen Douglas and Abraham Lincoln. Although Douglas and
Lincoln debated matters of policy, the core of their advocacy always
involved a clash of values. Thus, in NCFCA, Lincoln Douglas debate
resolutions are always constructed to create a clash of competing
values rather than the adoption of a specific policy. |

Policy |
| |
|

In policy debate, competitors either
advocate or oppose a resolution that calls for a change in policy
regarding a current political issue. During a round of debate, a
team of two debaters will advocate the resolution by proposing a
specific plan to accomplish the goal stated in the resolution while
another team of two debaters will oppose the resolution and the
specific plan of the first team. |
