1.
During my first year as a member of the debate team, I was given many useful pointers. First, I learned the importance of speaking loudly and clearly. If you are not audable or your dicsion is poor, even your strongest points will have no impact. Second, make sure that all the statistics you use in your argument are verifyable, or you will give your opponent an opportunity to discredit you. Third, do not be too beligerent in your attack on the opposing team, or the judges may be less sympathetic toward your side. However, do not hesitate to press your advantage if you think the judges' inclinasion is to favor your argument.
