NCFCA offers two types of competitive
debate opportunities:
- Team
Policy (TP): In policy
debate, competitors either advocate or oppose a resolution that calls for
a change in policy regarding a current political issue.
- Lincoln Douglas (LD): 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.
