Has anyone ever been in high school debate?

[Chiefs2007]

I joined my high school debate team about one month ago and it is so much fun. I just got done with my first tournament. I did really good for a freshman but didnt place I am in a type of debate called student congress. You basically just do what you would do in a real congress...just debate over pieces of legislation. So has anyone been in high school debate? If so share your expieriances or tips

I have not been in one but I guess it is really cool to express your views against some other people.

It's funny, in high school, I used to hate debates, but now, I love them. We do at least one a week in my Business Law class, and it's the most fun I've ever had in class. It's just nice to be able to speak your mind, and whether you or someone else feels you're right or wrong, you don't get in trouble for it.

Yeah and when someone messes up you can just attack them with questions
